Senna the Potter

A market-rows potter in Highbridge carrying a Ledger kiln-pledge built never to be paid off — honest, unhurried, and one bad season from losing the wheel she stands at.

Senna throws the plain ware half of Highbridge eats off and tells you to your face which bowls are seconds. Her kiln-pledge to the Counting-Floor is the Lean Years in miniature: the interest always paid, the principal engineered to outlive her.
