[16] She died in childbed with her first child, a daughter who would have been the heir to Sarel Jisiensire. At the time of Reese's arrival to Ontine, that was 60-70 years in the past; Felith reports she and Hirianthial had been married "not even" forty years before she died.[6]Her milk name was "Laisa." |
