Amerei Frey

Amerei Frey is the second child of Titus Frey and Serra Charlton. She is nine and ten,born on 79 AC, and she currently resides at the Nightingale Inn, where she's trying to start a new life away from the obligations of a noble lady.

### Appearance and Character

Amerei is a young woman, taller than most but not particularly tall, with a slender frame. Her blonde hair is long and straight, falling past her shoulders when she lets it fall free. Her eyes, are blue like the summer sky; and her lips would usually be curled into a smile.

She has been made aware of how pretty she is many times, something she hated at first but that she has now embraced. Despite her limited income she tries to dress to impress, and carries herself with confidence. And, when performing at the inn, she tries to get people to not only listen to her music but to look at her too. When not working she'd usually sit with the travelers and ask them about their adventures, eager to learn more about Westeros.

### History

#### Living in Riverrun (86 AC - 97 AC)

After her seventh nameday, Amerei was sent to be warded in Riverrun, along with her younger sister Melara. During her time there, she learned most of what there was to learn about the life of a highborn lady, and she hated most of it. She loathed embroidery, she found the "proper" songs dull and uninspired compared to those the servants sang, and she hated how the boys' lessons always seemed more interesting.

Wanting to avoid all of that she disguised as a handmaiden many times and made a few friends amongst the commonfolk there. Talking to them made her discover a new world, outside of Riverrun's walls. A world where women did not have to learn useless skills and where they were not married off to strangers. The more she talked with them about it, the less she wanted to stay a nobl, and when she grew up she attempted to leave.

#### A new beginning (97 AC - current)

Eager to start her new life, Amerei headed out of Riverrun as discretely as she could. However her best was not enough, and she got caught by Ser Denys, the High Justicar. The two of them talked for a while, and realizing that he would not be able to convince her to stay he instead attempted to convince her to head to a place where someone would keep an eye on her, that place being the Nightingale Inn. Not having thought about where to go, Amerei agreed to that, and waited in Riverrun until she was able to join a travelling caravan that she thought would pass by the inn.

To her dismay, the caravan did not pass by the inn as she thought it would, and she found herself stranded in Tumbler's Fall. Not wanting to make the journey by herself she hired a sellsword to escort her her. But the sellsword, once they left the town, turned on her. He tried to take her belongings, and to force himself on her. And he would have succeeded, had it not been because Unella of Dorne saw everything and stepped in to save her. After telling her who she was and where she was headed to, Amerei convinced her to take her to the Inn and to stay there to teach her how to defend herself. Something she agreed to, as long as Amerei had the coin for it.

After that, Amerei and Unella reached the inn without any incident, and was accepted there. Needing the money to pay not only for her things but for Unella's as well, Amerei started to work as a bard to make money, and when that was not enough she started to work as a barmaid too. It was not much money, but since she was allowed to live in the stables for free it was enough to make meets end. But the stables were cold, and lacked intimacy. She wanted a room she could call 'home', and in an attempt to make more money she has started to help Matilda Manning in her schemes.

### Recent Events

As of 98 AC, Amerei lives and works at the Nightingale Inn. The staff and the regular patrons have become her family of sorts, and the Inn and its surroundings her new home. It's not as idyllic as she had imagined when in Riverrun, but it's what she has chosen for herself. And she would not change it for anything in the world.
