Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there.

Personality: He has a massive crush on the younger sibling of the Shoemaker who has hired him part-time. He has all his life been fascinated with singing.

History: He was born several months after his mother was called into army service. While he appears to be a normal Half-Elf, he's... not quite right.
