Brona

Brona is the mother of Andraste and one of her original disciples. 
== Background ==
Brona was a tribeswoman of the Ciriane. She married Elderath, the chieftain of the northermost Alamarri tribes, to secure an alliance and prosperity for both their tribes.
== Involvement ==
Brona is one of the eight spirits the the Warden encounters in the Gauntlet during the quest A Test of Faith. The shade was likely summoned from a ritual which involved Brona's immolation. In order to advance in A Test of Faith, the Warden will need to answer the following riddle:
"Echoes from a shadow realm, whispers of things yet to come. Thought's strange sister dwells in night, is swept away by dawning light. Of what do I speak?". 
The correct answer is "Dreams"; all other answers are not accepted. If the Warden answers correctly, the shade will disappear. If the Warden answers incorrectly, "Brona" will turn into an ash wraith and attack.
