Persona History:

I was raised in Avignon in the house of a nobleman and his wife. I was orphaned as a young girl and never knew my parents and I often dreamed that I was really the daughter of the Duke of Burgundy. When I came of age I met a young knight from England and we fell in love and were married. We returned to his home in Gloucestershire and then later traveled to Ansteorra where we found our second home.
