A Hero will rise...

Aramiel: April's character of the month

Aramiel.
Born in a cabin in the woods after her father's death, Aramiel had an unusual start.  Her mother died soon after her birth, leaving Aramiel to the care of Bagria, an elderly woman who was her mother's friend.  Before she even reached the age of seven, Bagria too died, leaving Aramiel to fend for herself off what was in the cabin, and what she could find or kill. 
   Before long the little girl's provisions ran out, and she wandered into the nearest city, the City of the King.  Completely unaware of matters of state, she found to her surprise that the King was her grandfather, and her father had been the heir to the throne before his death.  Word on the street was that the King had a grandson, the current heir.  Startled by this turn of events, Aramiel knew where to go.  The next day she spent in the grand library in Ewythrin, reading page after page of the huge, leather-bound volumes written by the Kings of Basileia:  The Annals of the Kings of Basileia.  True enough, she found that she was the grandaughter of the King, and that she had a brother three years older than herself, named Aramoth, who had been staying in Ewythrin.
   Hearing that there had been a battle shortly before in Ewythrin in which most of the men were killed, a great fear filled the little girl's heart.  She hurried through the city to the tombs, afraid that when she arrived, she would find that the brother she just found out about would have died in the battle.   There she was found by Eytrine, an Ewythrinae maiden, and given food to eat and a place to stay, as well as being told that her brother the Prince was not dead, but had only moved to Idyllin.

Aramiel then moved in with her brother Aramoth, who was living with Ynyth and Gwynarae Tamam in Idyllin.  There she learned to swordfight and perfected her  archery skills, as well as learning how to be a godly woman from Gwynarae.  A little while later the entire family moved to the City of the King, where they stayed in the palace with Aramoth and Aramiel's grandfather the King.  During the war after her grandfather died, Aramiel was left as the princess regent, acting her brother the King's role as judge and sitting on the golden throne while he led the men in war.  When the need arose, she led her people in a defensive battle until her brother and his troops could arrive to relieve them.

Aramiel grew to be a godly woman and a great encouragement to others.  She married later than most Basileian girls, but when she did marry she and her husband raised fourteen children to love and serve God.

Aramiel loves long and beautiful dresses.  She loves the beauty of a sword but if forced to fight prefers to be at such a distance that she can use a bow.  Her favorite colors are pink and red.  She has long brown hair and brown eyes.  She is not as short as Eleutheria, but she is not tall either, rather being of a somewhat average height.  She loves to ride her horse and she loves to garden.
