Background

+Full Background

Born to Lord Chandlyr Roeman Erenford and Lady Isla Erenford nee Haigh seventeen years ago, Aemy Esmyrelda Erenford is a whimsical yet well mannered young lady. The youngest of three children, she is her father's pride and joy. Her older two brothers opted to follow in their father's footsteps. When her father was home he would place her on his knee and tell her of his exploits and adventures. Detailing, in part, his tasks as a noble man. Lord Chandlyr, son of Lord Martis, was knighted in his youth. He excelled with the spear and made a name for himself among the other knights as a fearless warrior. His jousting skills are impressive, though now he prefers leaving that to the younger generation. Namely, his children. He made sure they were educated with a spear, then a blade at an early age, not anywhere near as well as he, but well enough to defend themselves should they have the need. Her brothers, of course, were trained more properly than she with the weapons.

Lady Isla positively doted on her children, all three of them. A proper Lady, she was determined to show her only daughter the ways of a noblewoman. Aemy was always an avid listener, learning from her mother and various aunts and cousins. Her talent seemed to be more along the lines of poetry. Try as she may to learn an instrument, just sitting still was almost too much for her. Learning the harp was all she could manage. She was always with a bit of parchment in her hand, capturing words when they caught her interest. Writing was her true passion though, but in order to please her parents, she would put her words and music together, playing the harp as she sang. Although impressed, her family thought she wasn't quite so refined as her mother. More oft than not she would choose to be away from others, locked away in her room or down by the river writing her poems, mostly ignoring the duties befitting her station. Often, much to her parent's chagrin, she could be found sneaking away and having a dip in the water or tying a twine on a pole down at the water's edge catching fish. Becoming too much of a tomboy, they made a difficult decision.

And so with a heavy heart, she was sent away from her beloved family, her beloved home in Heronhurst to cousins in Terrick's Roost, hoping for her to gain a bit more refinement. Even though it isn't far, she knows she hasn't the option of returning home until her parents send for her. Though Aemy is hesitant on leaving her parents and brothers behind, she is looking forward to visiting with Katrin, for she has known her most of her life, having met on their many trips between Heronhurst, Seagard, Stonebridge and Terrick's Roost.

Cover When women are moved and lend help When women who are by nature calm and controlled Give encouragement and applause When virtuous and knowledgeable women Grace the endeavor With their sweet love… Then is it invincible. Jose Marti Description Petite and well-poised are two of words most descriptive of this young lady, standing with perfect posture and an air of self-assured confidence. She stands at around 5'4" or so and possesses a soft and feminine body type. A flawless ivory complexion framed by long, wavy blonde hair, streaked with lighter shades, almost white, from the sun, reaches just past the middle of her back. Her ears are small, a straight nose, high, well-defined cheekbones, a rounded jawline, feline-shaped cobalt blue eyes fringed by long lashes and thin, slightly arched brows. Full, pink lips, usually sporting a smile complete her remarkably pretty face. As a whole, her figure is much like an hourglass, the generous curve of her breasts, then sloping in at her waist and flaring out gently at her hips. She wears a long, soft blue and gold gauzy dress, with sleeves that come to a point on top of her hands. The neckline is scooped slightly with tiny gold buttons narrowing down to her waist, the slight undulation of the material matching the natural grace of her movements. Personality A bit on the serious side, having been told all her life that ladies are to be seen and not heard. Her father is a rather strict man who likes things to run smoothly. Includung his family. Only when she is alone or with someone she trusts implicitly does she venture into the less serious side she indeed possesses. She does have a good and kind heart and would never intentionally hurt anyone. She is known mostly for showing the propriety her family expects. When she does let go and relax and when her guard is down, she can be fun-loving and adventurous. Music has always been her first love. Since she was very young she would play her harp and put words to the tunes, writing her own lyrics and poems. Family Husband: Lord Robben Ashwood Father: Lord Chandlyr Roeman Erenford (NPC) Mother: Lady Isla Erenford nee Haigh (NPC) Brother: Lord Aidan Erenford Cousin: Ser Brennart Erenford Cousin: Lord Elrick Otto Erenford Good Cousin: Lady Muirenn Erenford nee Mallister Events Born Jan 07, 272 Music Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars "We'll do it all. Everything. On our own. We don't need anything. Or anyone. If I lay here. If I just lay here. Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told. Before we get too old. Show me a garden that's bursting into life. All that I am. All that I ever was. Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see." Stand - Rascal Flatts "You feel like a candle in a hurricane. Just like a picture with a broken frame. Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight. But you'll be alright, you'll be alright. Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you're made of. You might bend til you break, cause it's all you can take. On your knees you look up, decide you've had enough. You get mad, you get strong. Wipe your hands, shake it off. Then you stand, then you stand. Life's like a novel with the end ripped out. The edge of a canyon with only one way down. Take what you're given before it's gone. And start holding on, keep holding on. Every time you get up and get back in the race, one more small piece of you starts to fall into place." Lee Ann Womack - I Hope You Dance "I hope you never lose your sense of wonder. You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger. May you never take one single breath for granted. God forbid love ever leave you empty-handed. I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance." David Pomeranz - Got To Believe in Magic Take me to your heart, show me where to start, let me play the part of your first love; all the stars are right, every wish is ours tonight, my love. Got to believe in magic, tell me how two people find each other. In a world that's full of strangers; you've got to believe in magic. Somethin' stronger than the moon above. 'Cause it's magic when two people fall in love. I may never know, why I need you so, all I need to know is this feeling; Handle it with care, we were born to share this dream, my love.

Allies and Foes

Cover

I dreamed of a wedding of elaborate elegance

A Sept filled with family and friends

I asked him what kind of a wedding he wished for

He said one that would make me his wife

Author Unknown

Whatever souls are made of his and mine are the same

Special thanks to Ceinlys for the picture

Erenford

	My House	Family is what grounds you.
	Brother	Very, very protective. I hope that I have not disappointed him with the recent happenings in the Roost, for I could not bear to see disapproval in the eyes of my brother, whom I love so very dearly.
	Cousin	I rather like him quite well. He's smart and informative and very helpful. I admire and respect him deeply. Now he is married to Lady Bryliesa and I am so happy for the both of them. It's not only a good match, but I suspect it's one of love also. I am getting closer to my cousin than I ever was before and I find him to be quite protective as well.
	Goodcousin	I like Lady Bryliesa. She is kind yet firm, I would possibly do well to learn a few things from her. Married to my cousin now, we are finally family, in some capacity.
	Cousin	When our paths cross, he always seems quite serious, but I enjoy his company all the same. I wish him all the best in his up and coming marriage to Lady Muirenn Mallister, another good match, as well as one of love I suspect.
	Cousin	Quieter than her sister but I adore her all the same. She is really sweet.
	Courier	Kalira is the loyal courier of the Erenford house. Her tracking skills are unmatched by any I have seen!
	Handmaid	Kyra is my handmaid and we have been together for quite a long while. She is a bit of a flirt and very pretty. She does like to keep me in check with gentle, sometimes silent reminders.

Frey

	Our Liege	“It all comes down to serving the ones who are fighting alongside you, watching your back, putting a weapon in your hand when you need it most.”
	Liege Lord	How many kids have you fathered? O.O
	Lady Lyanna	We briefly met at the gates of the keep in Highfield. I really like her from what I know of her in the short amount of time we had to talk. Hopefully I will get to know her better since via Brylie and Bren we will be somewhat related. I like her ideas, her passion she seems to have for her opinions and I admire her strength. I like Lady Lyanna and I look forward to spending a lot of time with her.
	Ser	Like no one else I've ever met before. I do not know whether to smile or be offended by him. He is all kindness on the surface with barbed words that could possibly cut deep if one allowed his opinion to matter.

Ashwood

	House Ashwood	The house of my betrothed. I have always liked Highfield and now it will be my home, my house. Though I will always be an Erenford!
	MY Husband	A man who always has the charm turned on. He makes me smile each time I see him. Sweet and kind and is perhaps sharing in my joy of music, even when it does not come from an instrument. I find myself often seeking his company. I feel.. Safe, among other things, when I am with him. Not once has he ever attempted to be improper. I respect that. miss the solid and warm side of him, I miss his words of encouragement. I miss him. More than I should. Such a calm man, so full of grace.The loss of his brother was hard on him, I am grateful he has allowed me to be here with him during his sadness. - Betrothed: He is to be my husband. Husband. I cannot even imagine what life will be like once we are wed, but I am certain I will do all I can to make him happy.
	Indescribable	We shared a dance at the wedding in Highfield. We met again, in the Mire. Dangerous. Very dangerous. Keeping my distance. The recent happenings of the Roost involve both him and myself and for the first time in my life, I find myself the subject of undesirable rumors and investigations. I fear for my reputation most of all. I have spent my entire life making a good one for myself. I wish not to let down my family at all. Stripped of all title and birthright, he is a Deputy now and our marriage is on hold. Is it for the best? Only time will tell. I am not certain I can be strong for him any longer when he cannot be strong for himself. - Lives go on, people change. When people are deliberately kept apart, what was so new and tentative and growing gets no encouragement and it dies. I wonder if it could ever be rekindled or if there is nothing left but ashes? - A bittersweet goodbye. Sometimes one just has to let go…

Mallister

	House Mallister	A friendly bunch of people.
	Lord Knight	Lucky man who got to follow his heart and marry for love as well as having a good match.
	Lady	Lovely and kind. I respect her as I do all of the Mallisters. Lately we have grown closer, and she is one of the greatest friends I could ever imagine having. During the recent happenings in the Roost, she remained by my side.
	Lady	My cousin will marry Lady Muirenn very soon. He has made a good choice and I wish them every happiness. She will be a wonderful addition to the family.
	Lord Knight	The more I get to know Ser Martyn, the more I know what a wonderful choice my cousin has made. As Marytn has made in seeking my cousins hand as well. I find him to be struggling with a deep despondency regarding the war and try as I might, I am unable to pull him completely from his musings. After meeting my cousin again he seems to have been able to pull himself from the darkness haunting him. He seems to have found a margin of happiness in the form of a certain Haigh cousin of mind. I do hope they can overcome the odds and be together for always.
	Lady	A lovely bride. I have only met her a few times, but I enjoy her company.

Fenster

	House Fenster	A small house. Recently changed allegiances… to Haigh. How… unfortunate.
	Young Lord	Alric used to be a very close friend of mine, one whom I confessed all the dreams a younger lady can dream. All that has changed now, I rarely even see him and when I do, we talk nothing of import.

Haigh

	House Haigh	The family of my mother's birth. Unfortunately.
	Lord, Ser	I really like being around Perrin. He is quite fun, amusing and he makes me laugh. I would really like to take him up on his offer to visit Broadmoor!
	Lady	Cousin, friend. I enjoy time spent with her recently and getting to know her a little better. Her advice is invaluable. I am heeding your words, cousin, though it is difficult to do! I do so hope that her and Martyn Mallister are able to overcome the odds against them and finally get to be together.
	Lady	Cousin. Betrothed to Young Lord Alric. I wish you much happiness. I do not know her as well as I wish I did.

Nayland

	House Nayland	Allies in the recent war, though I know very little about any of them.
	Lady	Sooo mean. But indeed she has a point. What would one such as he see in merely…me? Now that I do not have what you want any longer, will you just -leave- me alone?

Terrick

	House Terrick	I mostly associate them with the Mallisters for often when I see one, I see the other.
	Young Lord Ser Intimidation	I met him during my recent troubles in the Roost. As handsome as he is, he is many times over more intimidating. I found myself quite scared and anxious as he questioned myself and my guards. Though he seems friendly to Nedra, and I trust her judgment, perhaps there is more to him than striking fear into the heart of this Erenford.
	Sheriff	I've only met him on a few occasions, he seems to be nice, with a rather dashing smile. Other than that, I know very little about him.

Commoners

	Hunter	I've only met him on a couple of occasions, he seems to be nice.
	Courier	Quite a charming and respectful man, I find no faults in him. He is helpful and kind. I wish he could have remained around Heronhurst a little longer, he is pleasant company.
	Bard	A single, chance meeting and I shall always remember him for he plays his instrument with a skilled hand and his voice is melodic and clear. His manners, impeccable and his charm unequaled. Quite different from anyone I have ever had the fortune to meet.
	Retainer	She seems to be dedicated to finding the missing children. I have only barely met her but I find I like her eagerness. Oh, and I saw her kissing a girl in the Inn.

Deceased

	RIP	I'm not entirely sure our paths have ever crossed for more than a brief moment. I'm sure the only words I have exchanged were written in parchment and delivered by messenger. I was saddened to hear of the loss of his heir and the fate of his wife. I have finally met him. He is a man of very few words, though when we did speak, he was kind.
	I Miss You	Lord Daryl's sister. Just met her but I can already tell she is going to be a great friend. I simply adore her! I hope to be able to spend much time in her company. I miss her terribly. I pray for her safe return often! You will never know what you meant to me. Friend, ally, confidant. Your absence is felt every day of my life. I miss you.

Left

	Cousin	Nevan is fun to be around, I adore his wit! He makes me laugh and often, though with the recent war, I seldom see him.
	Cousin	I would do well to watch and learn from my cousin. Not afraid to speak her mind, she is the anti-role model my parents would choose for me, but someone I wish I could be more like.
	Cousin	So cute and fun to be around, she makes me laugh with the stories she tells. Always blushing! Adorable.
	Ser Knight	A bit brash, but very protective. I like that. He makes me smile. Bastard or no, I consider him my family. A fun part of my family.
	Ser Dot	A friendly knight who escorted me to Heronhurst once. He has amazing blue eyes. I know little of him other than his name.
