Once a lover to Caspian Argent, she left him when he joined her uncle's side in the Founding War. She remained aloof until it was too late, & she has long lived with that regret. She spends most of her time tending to the insane & suicidal in madhouses around the Empire, though often she visits her friend Algensaens, the silver dragon, or Thorian.
When Thorian put her name up for Emperess, she decided to mak her way to Ienova, at the least to put an end to the madness he was spreading.
