Eleana Whiteshield

Astra Whiteshield (Younger sister)

**Childhood**

 Eleana Whiteshield grew up in the court of her father, in the city of Victoria. As a little girl, she was taught that she will, one day, rule her father's empire since her father had no male heirs. She grew up with her 2-years younger sister, Astra.

Eleana loved her father and adored him unlike Astra, who sometimes hated him for not giving her more freedom. They both were not allowed to leave Victoria for he tought it was too dangerous for both of them to go outside. Aedon was very protective of his daughters and he wouldn't even let them go outside after dark to the streets. Righteously so, because the streets were filled with drunks,at killers and thieves at night.

When she was 10 years old, the war of the five lords broke out in the empire. Eleana wasn't too scared as she felt that the war wouldn't last for long. But, it did. It lasted for 7 years. She was 17 years old when Victoria was captured by Lord Edgar Ravengray whilst her sister, Astra, was 15 years old. Once Edgar conquered Victoria, he killed Eleana's father, emperor Aedon but decided to spare her mother and her younger sister, banishing them from Domas. He sent them on a voyage to Dal'Shaq. It was meant as a last voyage for them and a warning to never return to the empire again.

**Life in exile**

Eleana was transported by the royal ship called "Mercy" commanded by Captain Fynn Payne. After their arrival at Ghoula, Dal'Shaq, Captain Fynn Payne decided to help Eleana, her mother and her younger sister to escape. Payne was ordered by the emperor himself to sell the Whiteshield family to slavery and by his return, he would be rewarded generously. Payne, however, did not carry out that plan. Instead, he helped the Whiteshield family flee the city of Ghoula and go somewhere far where the rest of the crew wouldn't find them. They went to a small village of Jansha which was nearby the city of Derisa, on the other side of the river Tazh'ah that seperates Derisa and Ghoula.

There they stayed for a while and eventually they moved on, traveling to different towns and villages across the western coast of Dal'Shaq. Still in exile, they had to constantly be aware of their surroundings.

Soon, after traveling near the city of Isholah, they were ambushed by bandits. Eleana's mother, Melania was killed and Fynn Payne was knocked out. The bandits have taken Eleana and her sister, Astra with them. Later on, they were both sold to slavery. Astra was sold to a slave master in Westharbor and Eleana was sold to another slave master from Rahas, on the other side of Dal'Shaq. They were sepperated from each other.

**Escaping Dal'Shaq**

After a few months spent as a slave in Rahas, she was rescued by Lord Frederick Loveheart, who also sent a part of his search party towards Westharbor to find her sister, Astra. It was a tough decision, but they have decided to go back to Domas. They first stopped by the kingdom of Summerwind and asked them for help. The king agreed that a few of his lords will fight on her side in the upcoming war.

The preperations for the war have started and slowly, throughout the years, they have taken back the whole empire. Finally, at the end of the war, Eleana was sitting on the golden throne in Victoria. She has restored the power of the Whiteshield house and she has now become an empress.
