Legends of Belariath

Geniia

Geniia born to a well mannered and rather sophisticated family from the earliest age she was treated very much like the perfect little princess. She learned quickly that there was fairly little that she couldn't get or get away with, with little more than a sweet flutter of her lashes and a cute puppy dog look on her features. Though it was that behavior that lead way from cute begging to the lovely little vixen becoming quite spoiled. When she was still young her family thought it rather adorable the way she barked at the servants demanding cakes and cookies and candies. Though as she started to grow those insistent demands lost their appeal as they melted from pouty little barks to harsh shrills. It was clear to her family that the pamper little vulpine princess had to be put in her place because it was no longer little trinkets and treats that she was demanding but rather very costly prizes that now filled the home and it had to stop.

Her family had determined they's go to any measures needed to break the bratty child of her self indulgent ways. It was though that lessons an array of lesson to try to teach Geniia to think of others before herself might be the key to breaking through that that bossy manner that she had developed. the finest teachers and tutors were brought in to guide the girl in the way of proper manner and etiquette as well as to instruct her in the healer's arts. She was sent to work a summer with the servants of th household in the hope to teach her humility. All these efforts failed quite miserably and she railed against the wishes of her parents that much more fervently. The selfish way of the young vixen became quite humiliating to her family and though they loved her dearly something drastic had to be done to remedy her ill behavior.

Without Geniia's knowledge her parents conspired a plan one that they were sure would adjust her selfish attitude for good. Secret plans and agreements were plotted and put in place with an individual far from their home. This individual would look after the spoiled vixen while teaching her the hardest of life's lessons. All this was plotted out to the finest detail long before Geniia would know anything about it. When she was finally informed what she was told was far from the truth, told that she was going on a journey to see what the world was like outside of the town she'd known all her life. Stripping her down to the barest of necessities the clothes on her back and a few coins and sent her away with a map in hand to lead her on her way.

Early that morning she was sent along on her way she having little choice but to go along with their instructions since they had taken practically everything from her. Though what she wasn't aware of was that the map they had given her was designed to confuse her and get her lost at a very specific point. The map would have her wandering into the property of the one her parents secretly arranged to catch her. She had no clue the fate that was awaiting her when she would happen upon this stranger or the path so differed from the one that she knew that she would be led down.
