Orako

Orako would be what Zehin describes as the perfect package: smart, funny, didn't take shit from anyone. She was the mother to Annavelle and grandmother to A'Draak. she was a powerful woman, but her gift went unused most of her life. she was simpler, liked Al-Zehin enough she fell for him and allowed herself to become pregnant.
There is not much she did other than rear Annavelle and watch over her only grandchild. She did not stand in the way of Zehin's duties as an Inquisitor and made due when he was on investigations. Luckily she never had to share him with others.
She died in the Spreading, flash frozen in the Capitol as her husband confronted Xankresh. It was instantaneous, she had no time to think or even fear that her end was coming. As Al-Zhein puts it "She is simply frozen in their home, more than likely still sat waiting on him to come home"
The loss of Orako pains Zehin heavily to this day, however he can still feel her on the mountain winds soothing his soul in the darkest nights. He knows she is still here with him, whether that's what he tells himself or a gift that the dawn race had is up for debate. All that matters is he feels his wife holding him fast, and allowing him to move forward each day.
A'Draak knew his grandmother to be a kind woman who would always feed him high elvish foods, and spoil him with fine clothes bought in the Capitol. She'd be there to welcome him when he came to visit, and goad his grandfather into helping him train. He knows she loved to garden, to make her home beautiful, and that she always loved her children and always will.
