New Characters

In Heron’s Bonds you will meet a number of new characters, among them is Trissy, a human woman who has survived a great disease that went through her people, friends and family and killed most of them. She managed to save her little sister Jenny, and a couple of cousins also survived. Her older sisters had already moved away so they too managed to avoid the illness, but she feels alone.

As she travels, Trissy uses all her skills to find food, cook, keep her and Jenny hidden, safe and warm. Her connection to the planet is not weak and she has confidence, but later in the story she hesitates to confront whispered and muttered prejudice even in her own house. Why is that?
