## Biography

### *The Green Ember*

Lady Glen visited Nick Hollow to talk with Whittle and Sween right before their home was attacked by Redeye Garlackson. She met their children, Heather and Picket, and ate breakfast with the family, giving Heather a parting smile when she and her brother were sent to Gladeberry. Later, Heather briefly wondered if Maggie Weaver was Lady Glen, but soon recognized the differences between the two. Smalls was persuaded to depart Cloud Mountain after Kyle gave him false intelligence indicating that she was in danger.

Smalls informed Heather of this development, also promising that he would bring her and those rabbits with her back to join the Cause. Heather conveyed this news to Wilfred Longtreader, who became furious when he learned that Smalls had put his trust in Kyle. Picket, on his way to save Smalls from the ambush Kyle had arranged, questioned whether Lady Glen might in fact be Smalls' mother.

### *Ember Falls*

Maggie Weaver revealed to Emma and Heather that Lady Glen was King Jupiter's wife and Emma's mother. Upon being questioned, Maggie explained that Lady Glen was not of royal blood and thus could not rule in the stead of her fallen husband. Tradition and respect dictated that she retained the title of queen until one of her children ascended to the throne, at which point she would become the queen mother.

When Emma tearfully wondered why Lady Glen had never visited her, Maggie comforted her by saying that when Emma was a small child, Lady Glen would occasionally come and hold her in the night. Hearing this, Emma recalled some vague memories of a "grey lady" holding her. She also learned from Maggie that Lady Glen resided in the Kingston-adjacent Exile Glen.

### *Ember's End*

After receiving word that a band of rabbits that may have included her mother was approaching First Warren, Emma sent Lord Victor Blackstar and his daughter Heyna to investigate. The pair met up with the group, which did indeed prove to include Lady Glen, and subsequently sent word to Jo Shanks asking for his aid. Lady Glen was soon introduced to the young archer and expressed some awareness of his friendship with her daughter and his feats as a member of the Cause. She was amused when he was left tongue-tied by the presence of her companion, the Pilgrim, before revealing the purpose of her summons: aiding the Terralain prince Naylen against the villainous Tameth Seer.

Lady Glen and her escorts made their way into First Warren during the final battle of the War for All Natalia, and Lady Glen was happily reunited with her daughter. Unfortunately, there was little time for tender greetings, and Lady Glen soon joined in the effort to coordinate the defense of the capital against the overwhelming forces assaulting it. Emma briefly questioned her mother regarding the identity of the Pilgrim, before Lady Glen turned her attention to speaking with Helmer, the last of her husband's Lord Captains. After a brief, private conference, Lady Glen gave Helmer her blessing before he departed to rejoin the battle.

Having rejoined Emma, Maggie Weaver, and Picket, the queen stunned Picket by making mention of his role in the events surrounding King Jupiter's fall and the treason of Garten Longtreader. After explaining the fate of the King's Arm and the burden of guilt Helmer had borne ever since, Lady Glen questioned whether Picket knew how much Helmer cared for him. In tears, the young buck acknowledged this and expressed his own love for the older rabbit.
