PERSONAE · THE VALE

Dreva Velthys

aka Dreva the Crone

A weathered Asheni outcast who knows the barrow's name and won't point the way.

Cast from the tribes for a sin she won't name, Dreva keeps a shack at the edge of Valenfeld and a grudge at the edge of every sentence. She knew the relic's name before the Houses had names, and she trusts settled folk about as far as she can spit ash.
