AISLING

AISLING Aisling is the displaced princess of Vallone, and her return there makes the mission painfully personal. The ruined kingdom is a place she knows, with a history she has already suffered through. Iago's coercion is central to that history. He threatens her family and tries to force a marriage; her escape does not save Vallone from destruction. When she faces that past again, Blake, Bolder and Druanna are with her. That is why “princess” is only a starting point for her profile. Her position hasn't protected her from loss, and returning to the kingdom means confronting what happened rather than simply reclaiming a comfortable title. Within this travelling group, her personal struggle becomes something her companions share.
