Aluvera Jemblossom

## Growing Up

A former childhood friend of Erevan Siannodel, they used to play and spend time together. However, when Aluvera began to show aptitude for magic, she became judgemental and wished for Erevan to follow in her footsteps to learn magic, but he didn't want to or didn't try very hard. They eventually grew apart and he hadn't seen her for years.

## Crown of Olum

When the Crown of Olum took over Duke Thurin Goldpetal and cursed the lands, the he was slain by the **Wizlocks** when he turned to an undead version of himself. During the civil war that broke out in the Veryd Forest, Aluvera took on a leadership role of the survivors and led them to retake the forest. When the events ended with the Crown of Olum, Aluvera was almost immediately elected the new **Duchess** of the Veryd Forest. Afterward she became romantically involved with Ularion Moonbrook, who was her right hand man during the battles within the Veryd Forest. The former leader of the military for Duke Thurin Goldpetal, Sir Fenthril Sunmoore became her bodyguard and protector.

Aluvera sent Sir Fenthril Sunmoore to accompany the Crown of Olum to Valya to make sure the crown was locked up for good. However, when it was revealed that leaders within the city had been corrupted by the Crown of Olum and had been turned into Werewolves. Fenthril was bitten and cursed with a rare form of lycanthropy, but Aurelia kept him on as her bodyguard despite this.

## Korbeth’s Corruption

Little did anyone know, but when Quarion Moonbrook was weakened by the effects of the Crown of Olum, he actually died. Taking over his body was **Korbeth**, the devil with grand machinations. He slowly corrupted the nobles around him and convinced them that Aurelia was not fit to rule the Veryd Forest. It started as political rivals, but eventually the violence broke out. Despite the fact that Erevan returned to the forest, Ularion Moonbrook was killed by his father and a civil war once again broke out.

With the help of Erevan and Fenthril she was able to defend her palace. However, it was when she decided to summon her powers granted to her as Duchess, she called forth all the spirits of past Verydian Elves to help fight the forces of **Korbeth** in the form of Quarion. Erevan was the one who slew Quarion Moonbrook but afterwards the remaining survivors of the Veryd Forest regrouped.

## What Remains

Aluvera ordered the citizens of the Veryd Forest to consolidate their homes towards the north end of the forest towards her palace. They abandoned large chunks of the Veryd Forest since they couldn’t protect the area with their number so small and spread so thin. This was controversial but necessary. Around that time, forces of Almonte began to spread across the continent to try and stabilize various regions.

Aluvera remained diplomatic with the forces of Almonte, even allowing a representative of the Dawnleaf Family to act as a moderator and go between. Various complaints and conflicts arose over the forces of Almonte taking over and regulating large swaths of the Veryd Forest. When the **Wizlocks** returned and slew a large green dragon that had taken residence up in the forest, this eased tensions a little bit, but Aurelia still struggled to maintain control over her people and her land.
