Naeris Moonmantle
the Mistwreath Elf
Named for the first breath of fog that rises from the sea at dawn, and the mantle of authority she wears as naturally as a wave crests.
Tidewhisper — you can still the surface of any water within your sight to a mirror, and read the memories of those who have crossed it. But each use leaves a pearl of cold in your chest that only the sun can melt.

You were not born to the mantles; you earned them. The day it first happened, you were simply walking the shore at low tide, your bare feet on wet sand, when you saw your own reflection in a pool and spoke a command you did not know you knew. The water obeyed. The heron stepped out of the foam and looked at you with an old, old patience, and you understood that you had been waiting for this moment longer than you had been alive.
