Personal history
Growing up in the Lothithil estate was an easy life for Æenira. Her days were spent . tending to simple chores adequate for her age and position in family and learning for the future her mother envisioned. That of a priestess of Elanar. While her mother focused on the schooling of young Æenira between her duties to the priesthood, her father busied himself with running of the household. Her sister, and heir to the house was rarely seen at the manor as she preferred the hunt in the wilderness with her team of rangers. Her brother on the other hand was busy with studies at Velthanor's academy of arcane arts, but every time he visited home he would spend plenty of time with young Æenira, showing her simple cantrips and teaching her magical tricks.
When she was in the middle of her first century, and beginning to make appearances in the family's public life, the Lothithil estate was attacked in the middle of the night after a social party once all the guests have left and the family was getting ready to rest. The attack was sudden and unexpected. Caught off guard, Elaran Lothithil pressed his family sword in Æenira's hands and pushed her towards escape, telling her to find her sister who was absent at the party, as he fended off an overwhelming number of attackers. Her mother and brother who were in different parts of the estate at the time, also perished in the assault.
Running through the forest, Æenira stumbled upon an encampment of a traveling troupe of entertainers. Exhausted and emotionally destroyed, having just escaped her family's destruction, Æenira forgot her father's last words to her and accepted the offer extended to her by the troupe to join them and live a life on the road, entertaining for money. The tricks taught to her by her brother quickly proved to be invaluable to the group often traveling through wilderness. She has also show a natural talent for dance and was groomed by the troupe's leader Luthais to be particularly skilled at more private forms of entertainment, opening the doors to some of more luxurious patrons for the troupe.
Betrayal at the hands of Luthais, who murdered Æenira's lover Viansola and escaped with valuable information he has been seeking left Æenira reeling for the second time in her life. Again having no direction, she settled down with what remained of her traveling family. The Terekhov family allowed them stay in the Altaer Valley where Æenira grieved her loss for a time, before beginning to build a new life for herself and those who remained with her with renewed fervor. Her interactions with the Terekhov family were chaotic, as she often got in the way of lord Tristan Terekhov, while at the same time befriending lady Natasha. Yet her skills proved invaluable again and she was granted a position within their lordships council, as well as eventually a town of her own. Though she could never shake the feeling like it was granted to her to keep her out of the way, as the town was located in the furthest part of the valley, she still made the most of it, creating a place for all to live in peace, harmony, and shared joy.
