She would wander through that ruined castle and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. 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 forest due to the painful memories there. Ella took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up halberd and armor she uses now. She has been a successful dealer in antiques buying low and selling high.
