A little while ago I asked for assistance to name three new characters. I received more than twenty suggestions.
From the list of names I have chosen four. Three names for the sisters and one for their foster mother, whom I had no knowledge of prior to the request.
Anastasia is a kindly old woman who lives alone in the forest between Alliston and Beeton. She is a small woman with a very large heart. She is always looking out for the welfare of children. Three of whom she adopted.
Some claim Anna is a witch. Most choose to ignore that little "inconvenience" about her and love her as a grandmother.
At one time there were those who tried to bring out the worst in her to cause fear among the villagers and have her burned for practicing the black arts. They took some children hostage to provoke her.
Well, on the edge of town there is an overgrown pile of rubble laying beneath a stone chimney and a chestnut tree.
No. Nobody crosses Anna anymore.
Faroh is the oldest of the three. She always had an interest in Anna's craft and picked it up quickly. She is cautious and motherly toward her little sisters.
Fuery is the middle of the three. She has enough attitude for them all. She is bold and has no qualms with taking great risks. One of her favourite games is to torment the boys. She teases them and taunts them. If they dare get fresh she allows them to kiss her fist.
She taught herself to use a rapier and has become very skilled.
Famke is the youngest. She is quiet, but not shy. She is highly observant and tends to go about things without informing anyone of her intentions. She is excellent with her bow.
The three are in their twenties and have become mercenaries to avenge the deaths of their parents.
Thank you again for the assistance.
