Family/Relationships/Past: El’lehana is the middle daughter of a large family, left alone when disease passed through their village and raised by her grandparents. Determination to never see another she cares about die of disease led her to seek apprenticeship with healers where she spent many years learning about the uses of herbs and magic. She returned to her village to care for her grandparents until they died of old age and generally keeping to herself and her gardens until word spread that an army was coming to wipe them all out. Few could leave before they arrived but the impending slaughter was stopped by the army’s general and she was saddened to find he was executed. As she was preparing to leave her village for safer ground, she saw a man walking by and recognized him to be the executed General. She stopped Mithghiiel and after he had explained what had happened she offered him shelter and food for his kindness until he could determine what path to take next.
She spent many months hiding him until she realized he had begun courting her. El’lehana was reluctant at first because he was a soldier but his charm won her over and she relented. The two agreed to travel to Mithghiiel’s birthplace on the Eastern coastline. Soon after they arrived she became pregnant with Kso’ppghiel. From the very beginning she taught him how to use magic and showed him the importance of various herbs and plants. She found herself very happy within N’taiya’s community and by Mithghiiel’s side. Despite her reservations she had about allowing Mithghiiel to train their son to fight, she quickly realized it was probably best he had as many skills in life as possible. Six years after Kso’ppghiel’s birth, she became pregnant again with a girl but due to a difficult pregnancy, she was unable to survive the delivery, leaving her husband and son alone with a new baby. She was buried next to the garden she loved in life at their home.
Associations: wife to Mithghiiel, mother to Kso'ppghiel and En'rii (see below). Died during 2nd childbirth due to complications when Kso'ppghiel was 6.p>
