Bellasiel+Winterrowd

John Winterrowd's "elven princess", Bellasiel Winterrowd is notoriously private. Stunningly beautiful, temperamental, free-spirited, Bellasiel has no tolerance for the strictures of polite Lyrabar high society and spends much of her time nurturing her roses or dabbling in potions. She speaks directly and often asks blunt, personal questions that make her audience uncomfortable. She has little tolerance for polite chit chat. Often homesick, she spends much of her time in her sitting room or wandering the garden. While she has been known to take a lover here and there, her heart remains inexplicably attached to John. She adores him as he adores her. These "other relationships" appear to be a sort of mutually agreed upon arrangement that allows each of them to cope with loneliness due to John's frequent travels on behalf of the family businesses.

Bellasiel has a strained...no, cold...relationship with her youngest daughter, Renata. She appeared to be unable to express any love or interest in her youngest daughter's existence. This led young Ren to cause all sorts of trouble in an attempt to draw her mother's eyes to her with little success. Only lately has this relationship begun to thaw...

Bellasiel was a former magic student of Master Rosche. She is especially tight-lipped regarding that time.
