Lowenna Benett Oake , the Lioness of Ninetaver, was about to seize a crucial victory to snuff out the peasant rebellion when her coterie was cut off from the main Oake battle line and beset on all sides by attackers. While she fought valiantly, her sister Tavina Oake struggled to break through the enemy ranks to reach her, but could not do so in time. Though the battle was won and the rebellion stamped out, Lowena died from her injuries, fighting at the behest of House Dillestone .
