(1272-1295) Most famous Santharian poet and novelist of the Age of Discoveries and Marcogg's greatest celebrity.

One of the most famous Santharian poets: Monsonius as drawn by Artimidor.

The several elegies, short stories, poems and existential diaries Monsonius had written during his short life-time undoubtedly have to be accounted to Santharia's most literaric treasures ever. Although during his lifetime Monsonius never had received the appropriate response from the readers which would have been rectified due to the quality of his writings, he never ceased to continue his lyrical efforts in order to describe his self and the world he was part of. Many years after his death, in the 15th century of the Santharian Calendar, Monsonius was re-discovered by Santhalian scholars and since this time his works remain unforgotten. Among his most important writings are: "The First Battle" (1290), "Man" (1291), "Myth of the Eternal" (1292) and last but not least the gigantic titleless, lyrical work about the "Soul of the World" (as he himself used to discribe it) which unfortunately remained unfinished, but nevertheless is seen as his most remarkable achievement. One of his most famous works is the so-called "Summerday Cycle", a series is of poems Monsonius wrote for his beloved Stela after her sudden death on a bright summerday morning. The Summerday Cycle represents not only a remarkable approach on how different the same poet can reflect on a certain important event in his life from various, seemingly completely unrelated perspectives, but is also magnificent art, where each poem and song can stand on its own as one of the greatest Santharian pieces of literature ever made.

Additionally the many diaries Monsonius had written were preserved from destruction caused by the tooth of time. But although they are an important source for historical, philosophical and lyrical research, only very few sentences describe the author himself or his surroundings so that Monsonius as a person still remains a mystery to his interpreters. However, it is supposed (even if not entirely confirmed through his diaries) that the early death of his beloved Stela was also the reason for his own end at the early age of 23, caused by his own hand. Especially in this last year after the death of his beloved, Monsonius' productivity was uncompared, resulting in hundreds of poems of which every single one is a masterpiece of its own.
