Biography / History
Early Life
The mercenary explains that she once worked for an elderly nobleman who believed Prythian had grown more dangerous over the past fifty years. Planning to flee, he secured a boat to the south and urged her to leave before things worsened. Before abandoning his estate, he confided that a pack of martax had crossed the wall and destroyed a mortal village—confirming his fears about rising threats from the faerie lands.
A Court of Thorns and Roses
After Feyre kills a wolf in the forest, she skins it and brings the pelt to the market, where she encounters the mercenary. Feyre offers her both the wolf skin and the doe hide in exchange for money.
The mercenary pays Feyre far more than the wolf pelt is worth, explaining that unusual and dangerous things have been happening near the border with Prythian. She warns Feyre about the martax attack and shows her the scars she received fighting a faerie, emphasizing how real the danger has become.
A week after Feyre is taken to Prythian, Nesta hires the same mercenary to guide her to the wall in an attempt to rescue her sister. They travel through the forest, but the mercenary is unable to breach the barrier, and the two ultimately return to their village.
