Background

Glaenis is a Barding, as those born in the kingdom of Dale are called. Her parents were a famous minstrel and the virtuous daughter of a wine merchant.

By the time Glaenis became 14 her father had died of a strong fever. Although the children were taught the craft of their father from an early age, only Glaenis desired to continue his legacy. Alvaen, the sibling and the closest to her, became a poet. Goenir, the youngest, joined the army, which she strongly disapproved of.

 

After both her brothers left home, Glaenis left Dale in a merchant caravan headed to Bree. She is searching for the dwarf Zólin, the skilled instrument maker who crafted her father's harp.

At the moment she is crossing the North Downs, attempting to get to the dwarven city of Othrikar.
