Cassilda Ironhollow
the Emberwild Countess
Named for Cassilda, the queen of lost Carcosa, and the iron hollow that remains when a pyre cools — a throne of rust and memory.
Power
You can draw the last heat from any ash and push it into a single ember that burns without fuel; but every ember costs you a memory of something that had no fire in it.

You will not burn the birch grove — though it would be easier to let the whole forest go. You have allowed smaller fires to take root, and each one costs you a memory of green. The first time you lit a house, you forgot the smell of rain on stone.
