Honeymist Sweetroot was born during one of the hottest days in the middle of summer. She is the first born child of Daisy Sweetroot and the older sister to several younger siblings. She was happy growing up, learning everything there was to learn about her family farm. One of her favorite games as a child was to walk through the farmlands of Bree with her father while he quizzed her on the crops that were growing, until she could name most things with a glance before they'd even begun to bloom.

Though it wasn't noticeable to her at first, it became very apparent over the years that Honeymist doesn't really look like her father. While he's tall and pale with pitch-black hair like her siblings, Honey stands out when she's among all of her family. There were rumors when she was born, about her parents getting married so suddenly, and having Honey less than a year later.

She spent years questioning her parents until her mother finally gave in and confessed to Honeymist that her real father had been an Easterling passing through Bree with whom she'd had a short-lived tryst. Crushed, Honey did promise that she would never tell anyone outside of her family in fear of their public reputation and her father assured her that he knew, and still loved her the same.

Continuing to help on the farm, Honeymist eventually moved out on her own to a small cottage on the edge of the Old Forest. She is constantly seeking for a world she does not yet know, and wishes she could depart to explore it.
