EMP-369: Shadowbriar

In the darkness outside of the Frozen Empire, there is little to look forward to. The darkness will swallow all that are alone, and only those surrounded by family will be able to shield their hope from it. Only those will be able to see the glimmer of life in that darkness. 

Shadowbriar left the hot springs and moved to the empire when she was young, hoping to find a better life out there. But in that place, surrounded by grifix, she felt lonelier than at the springs, in the middle of nowhere... So she went back, and married her love, Nightfall. They made a lovely family together, and she couldn't be happier. She's always sweet to the guests, asking for news from the Empire and letters from the few friends she made while staying there. She never saw any of them again, but she nevver stopped writing to them. The Hunters and Scholars that come by always bring her letters.

She is the mother of Snowbelle and Snowy Ridge. Snowy is part of the merchant guild in the Empire, and Shadow misses her dearly. Snowbelle sometimes visits the Empire by returning with hunter expeditions and stays at her sister's. The two of them invited their mother to come along, but Shadow always refused to, unknown why.
