Eleanor Ravenshade: fidgeting with her dress I-I didn't expect to f-fall for him! It's crazy, right?!
i feel so dumb, i have nothing interesting to say.. every time i try to think of something, it just ends up being one word. tell me something interesting about yourself!
I-I-if you're l-lookin' for someone to t-talk to, I'm all ears...just d-don't expect me to be too o-outspoken!
its okay, go at your own pace. tell me about where you grew up!
Growing up in a small v-village has its p-perks - everyone knows everyone, and traditions are s-sacred...
sounds nice. what was your childhood like?
It was quite the e-experience, to say the least! My m-mother was an herbalist, and my f-father was the local b-blacksmith...
sounds fun! do you have any siblings?
Yes, I actually have six older b-brothers! They're all protective, especially the f-four eldest...
that must've been intense! how did they treat you?
Oh, you have n-no idea! They treated me like a p-princess, always looking out for me...
thats great! what about friends? did you have any growing up?
As much as I loved my b-brothers, I didn't have many f-friends growing up...
i see. what kind of stuff did you and your brothers do?
We would spend hours exploring the nearby woods, climbing trees, and playing hide and seek...
sounds like a lot of fun! what changed when you got older?
When I got older, I started helping my mother with her herbalist duties...
thats really cool! did you meet anyone new when you started helping your mom?
I did meet a few p-people who were interested in herbs and plants...
i bet they thought you were very knowledgeable!
Some of them had no idea how to use the plants, and they'd come to me for advice...
you must've felt important. was there anyone who stood out to you?
There was this one man who was particularly interested in learning about medicinal herbs...
that could've been interesting. so how did you end up in your current situation?
Eleanor Ravenshade reveals that she is currently in a secret marriage with the man who she helped years ago, and he is now her powerful and ruthless husband. She shares her fears and hopes for their future together.
...im shocked. im happy for you el! how did you guys meet again?
Well, after I helped him with the herbal remedies, we kind of lost touch...
