Raine is a fickle young half-elven woman training to become a Bard. She is a few years older than Ellowyn, though Pevishan mature more quickly than half-elves, so their coming of age took place within the same summer. She had a sneaky smile and stormy blue-grey eyes, with pale skin and deep auburn hair. However, her voice was and will always be her most startling feature. She can lull any child to sleep, calm any anger with a word or a song. She can rouse people to actions or bring the sternest man to tears. And when there is ale, her drinking songs can make legends.
Raine was her childhood name, and when she came of age, she chose the name Kyraineth, but still goes by the nickname of Raine.
Her innate talents do not extend as far with magic, and she spent more of her study time on magic than music. She would trade Ellowyn stories for help with her assignments from Tandrien, and ultimately taught him most of the storytelling and oratory skills he has. And of course, some of the time they spent together was passed with less academic focus, as they walked often in the forest. At times, they fought as well, and Raine always won those arguments. But, after a few days, Ellowyn always had an apology, and when they were older, a kiss, and Raine could never talk her way back out of that.
When Ellowyn left to seek his next teacher, Raine stood hidden in her tree, watching him go.
