Read more about Shea Ohmsford at: Wikipedia Official Site: Terry Brooks Shea Ohmsford is a fictional character and the protagonist of Terry Brooks' epic fantasy novel The Sword of Shannara. In the universe, he is the last known person with the blood of Jerle Shannara, making him the only one who can wield the powerful Sword of Shannara to vanquish the Warlock Lord. Shea is half-Elven and the adopted son of the Ohmsfords of Shady Vale. His father is an Elf and his mother is human; she was a distant cousin of the Ohmsfords who left him with them before she died; he is apparently 'dropped' on the Ohmsfords' doorstep one day. They raise him as their own, and he grows up in Shady Vale. About twenty years after he had been abandoned, Allanon walked into Shady Vale, bringing with him a warning: the Warlock Lord is coming. It is now that he finds out about his famous bloodline and why evil is coming for him. Also, he receives a gift from Allanon: three magical blue stones called Elfstones. However, Shea does not believe Allanon fully. He does not leave until a few weeks later, when a Skull Bearer shows up in the Vale. Flick and Shea are forced to flee, with the Skull Bearer close on their heels. They manage to make it to Leah, where they reunite with their old friend, Prince Menion Leah. He agrees to guide them to Culhaven to find Allanon. When they arrive, they find Allanon waiting. He calls together a council to discuss the possibility of hunting down the Sword of Shannara for use against the Warlock Lord. The decision is to send a small party to paranor, the last known location of the Sword, and track it down. This party consists of Allanon, Shea, Flick, Menion, Prince Balinor Buckhannah of Callahorn, the Dwarf Hendel, and the Elven brothers Dayel, and Durin Elessedil from the Westland.
