Tindra Greybrook
the Ironbriar Elf
Named for the faint gleam of mica in the dark river stones of the Greybrook and for the iron-hard thorns that choke its banks, a reminder that what glitters can wound.
Thorncage — you can command the earth to erupt in a snarl of briars from a single seed, but each conjuring costs a drop of blood from your tongue, and the thorns bear your taste forever.

You will not set foot on the far bank of the Greybrook where the three oaks stand, because the king of that place once took a thorn from your grandmother’s wrist and wore it as a crown. The cost is that you must walk an extra league to the southern ford, and you have worn a path so deep the moss there grows in the shape of your boot. You call that path home.
