Shrinemaid Sigrieya Arnardaut, cín Jalóheim fra Sóholdt (a.k.a. Sigrie or "Sig")
Archivist's Excerpt from: Alone in the Cold: The Story of Orphan Towne, its Strange History, & its Stranger Occupants, CVI 42.4
Sigrie Arnardaut cín Jalóheim fra Sóholdt is (obviously) the child of Arnar, the only child, actually, and also obviously, hails from Sóholdt in eastern Jalóheim. Sweet, timid, hospitable, self-sacrificial, and kindhearted, Sigrie is a stalwart Shrinemaid among the Jaloheim Clan and follower of the Jalos Zealotry faith, perhaps the most optimistic and hopeful of them all, though like most, she knows little of the inner doctrines of her religion, nor even of its origin.
She simply serves, and "servant" is probably the best summary of Sigrie as a whole. This selfless child of The Expanse gives and labours for all but herself.
She's also often quite sleepy.
Endlessly passionate about the Last Journey Home and all all other future aspects of Jalós Zealotry, Sigrie is a purist of the faith, a true believer in all she hopes for. Agarta is, for her, a certainty, and she lacks the cynicism common among others in Sóholdt.
She is the youngest among her order, and is often given duties to keep her busy, as, when she is not, she asks for more to do, prompting the High Priestess of Jalós, Tevir to take a certain appreciation in in her, and become creative in finding work for the girl beyond the normal duties.
The Temple of Jalós was never swept so well.
She takes part in the Last Journey Home, along with the rest of Jaloheim, and ends up in Orphan Heights just in time for its ascension into the skies.

Motivation
Around the age of six, Sigrie Arnardaut began to beg her father to become a Shrinemaid, though she would never tell him why, nor would she tell anybody else. Again and again he would say no, and again and again she would kindly ask. When he was not at home, Sigrie would cook crude meals and take them to the Orphan’s Lodge there in Sóholdt. She would never stop serving. Finally, Arnar relented, and Sigrie, through sheer persistence, became the youngest Shrinemaid in the history of the order.
