## History

Asrya's mother is Marisa Coulter, a beautiful scholar who was married to the politician Edward Coulter. Marisa fell in love with the famously rich explorer Lord Asriel and had an affair with him. It was clear that when Asrya and Lyra were born, they were not Edward Coulter's daughters. Fearing the wrath of her husband, Marisa told everyone that the babies had died and hid her daughters. She sent Asrya and Lyra to Oxfordshire, where Asrya's father Lord Asriel had several estates. The infant Asrya, along with Lyra was placed in the care of a gyptian woman while they was there.

However, it wasn't long before someone told Edward about his wife's actions. He found his way onto Asriel's land with the intent to kill Asrya and Lyra. Although Asriel was away hunting, he received word of this and was able to return home in time to defend his daughters and their nurse as well as Four Year Old, Teddy Coulter, who was inside the house with the girls. Asriel killed Edward during the battle between them, but as a result, Asriel lost all his wealth to fines. Marisa wanted nothing more to do with her daughters and the girls was put in the care of Godstow Priory in Wolvercote.

Asrya and Lyra settled in with the nuns, mostly with Sister Fenella, whom they only ever really felt comfortable with. Her and Lyra's bedroom was in the priory's parlour, where the nuns would receive guests, this room was painted not long after they came. Malcolm Polstead, a boy from The Trout Inn across the River Thames from the priory, would often visit Lyra and Asrya.

During the flooding of 1986 when The Twins were a month old, they were rescued by Malcolm and Alice Parslow. They took the infant Asrya and Lyra on a long and dangerous journey along the flooded river to reach Lord Asriel in London. Lord Asriel wanted Asrya and Lyra to be raised at Jordan College and brought the four back to Oxford in his gyropter. Asrya and Lyra were given scholastic sanctuary at Jordan College.
