Gery Waters
Gery is the bastard daughter of Bradyn Ryswell and Syr Raisey Shaede. The events of her birth are the topic of much gossip: the Lord's knight and castellan, and best friend, two years after the death of his wife.
In truth, Gery's life has been relatively normal. Due to her birth status, she is not eligible to become a knight or inherit land, but nevertheless Syr Raisey has treated her like a squire, training her in the art of warfare and courtly graces - little though they've stuck.
She lives in the castle with her mother, but enjoys sneaking out to nearby Cashire to spend as much time as she can among the smallfolk, who love to entertain her dreams of normalcy. She has a knack for knowing everything and everyone important.
