Ehlila Faiytesh

Backstory
Ehlila Faiytesh is an accomplished sage who had worked for all her life under the instruction of her city's local Maester, Almorn, to learn of ancient cultures, lores, hidden treasures, and the history of The Ruzeya Empire. She has dedicated her life to discovering the truth about the complicated past of her homeland and the world at large. She has left her homeland in search of secrets left untold, as her mentor, Almorn, is now dying from a chronic degenerative disease which leaves him largely unable to complete the work he once did. Also, she felt the need to leave largely due to her father's attempt at an arranged marriage in order to further his own local political position. She feels a strong sense of loyalty to her hometown and to her family, but cannot stand to see her life's work be pushed to the side in lieu of settling down and becoming the proper wife and mother that the traditional values of homeland would expect of her. She dreams of one day returning to her family as she feels guilt over leaving her younger brothers and sisters in the aftermath of losing their mother to the plague, but feels a stronger sense of dedication to her field and to pursing her studies, and knows she cannot do so if her father has his way.
