Oshet

Oshet is a Barizheise gardener in the Alcethmeret.

Appearance
“His skin was almost perfect black; he wore his hair shaved rather than merely cropped, which made the steel rings in his ears”. Oshet “was a full head shorter than Csevet, stocky and densely muscled. His forearms were crisscrossed with scratches old and new, his fingernails rimmed with dirt. He had the heavy underslung jaw and protuberant eyes typical of goblins”. His eyes were vivid orange-red.

Personality
Oshet was friendly and helpful to Maia Drazhar.

Life
Oshet was a sailor, and received a tangrisha nesecho from a friend on his ship when he left.

Oshet came to the Untheileneise Court with Vorzhis Gormened, ambassador of Barizhan, five years before the end of Varenechibel IV's reign. Oshet's service was presented to Varenechibel IV "because of his gift for rose-growing."

After Maia received a letter with nesecho from Vorzhis, and didn't know how to proceed, Csevet went around Maia's household to see if someone did, and found Oshet, and brought him to Maia. Oshet explained it was a nesecho suncat, which symbolized good luck, friendship, and great happiness. Oshet showed his own nesecho of a tangrisha tied to a cord around his belt and kept in a pocket. When Maia asked if there were protocols for undoing the not on the letter, Oshet explained it didn't need to be cut, and could be easily pulled to untie itself, and it was meant as a gift. Maia thanked Oshet.

When Maia later toured the Alcethmeret to meet his staff, and went through the garden, Oshet might have winked at him.

Skills
Oshet had a gift for growing roses.

Oshet struggled with Ethuverazhin.
