Arlena Halithis was born in the twilight-drenched groves near the outskirts of Vaelyndor, a child of meditative silence and ancient discipline. From her earliest days, she was drawn not to song or spell, but to stillness—to the quiet between breaths, the rhythm of motion, and the search for balance in all things. Trained in one of the starward monasteries hidden within the Twilight Glades, she pursued the monastic path not for glory or piety, but for understanding. Her travels began with a vision during deep meditation: a banshee's wail echoing across a forgotten lagoon, its cry not of hatred, but sorrow. Interpreting it as a sign of imbalance between realms, Arlena left her sanctuary to wander Renaris, seeking echoes of the vision in lost places and haunted ruins. Along the way, her keen eye for patterns and relics honed her investigative mind, while her study of ancient texts deepened her insight into the divine forces that shaped the world. Though she claims no allegiance to gods or nations, she is often found where mysteries fester and the veil between life and death grows thin. What she seeks remains unspoken—but she listens, always, for that cry across the water.
