THL Kateryna Ty Isaf

Time Period:

Persona Bio:

Kat's grandfather is an installed English nobleman, whose daughter had the audacity to marry a Welshman for love. He bought a modest farm and home called Ty Isaf and set his daughter and her husband up as landowners away from his English castle. They died while Kat was a very young woman and she inherited Ty Isaf. She mothered a son, Brandyr, who sailed off on his own adventures, and who she has lost to the dragons of the deep. Known to occasionally harbor boarders, Kat has seen the world through the eyes of her traveling friends. She has recently met with an English gentle, Gregory, with whom she has a great and abiding affection and who has promised to show her the world that lies beyond her beloved home.
