In those days, Eidelwiess finally began to find love in the heart of a man returned from foreign wars.  The man used some of the fortune he'd made to send Alanna to school to better learn the use of her magic.<br/><br/>Eireth could hear a certain arcane song in her heart too, but could never let it out the way Alanna could.  Her stepfather was not cruel, but Eireth could tell he resented the reminders that he was not his brides first lover, and she left the kitchen to spend more and more time in the logging camp.<br/><br/>The first time Eireth found she could use that power was when an injured explorer stumbled into the logging camp, clutching a sword and pursued by gnolls.  With laughter that was almost demonic, Eireth seized the biggest axe in the camp and charged the gnolls, cutting down two while a hail of arrows sent the other three fleeing.<br/><br/>The explorer turned out to be Armond Avalor, an explorer from the Pathfinder Society.  Armond gave her a proper weapon--a true greataxe balanced for combat--a silk ribbon, and a white rose as thanks for saving his life.<br/><br/>Slightly infatuated, but mostly just fascinated, Eireth asked Armond for an apprenticeship and initiation into the pathfinders, and he agreed.
