Esterel (She/Her) was raised by her mother, father, and paternal grandmother. They lived a humble life in a small cottage by the woods. The grandmother wandered into the woods one day, never to be found again. Esterel was henceforward forbidden from approaching the forest.

One day, however, she was called to the forest. She obeyed and soon found herself lost in the feywilds. She lived with her fey friends for several weeks. They taught her songs and how to survive by hunting and foraging. But upon arriving home, her mother and father were nowhere to be found. No signs of anything out-of-place, with the exception of a few fey trinkets curiously left about. Esterel raised herself since then, eking out a meager existence by living off the land and selling animal pelts.

Esterel never dared approach those woods again. Sometimes, when she dreams, she is visited by a pixie who comforts her, gives her advice, and sometimes asks that she return to her friends, her real family.
