Esme Mason

Esme is Theodore’s younger sister, the two were exceedingly close as they grew up. When they weren’t learning from their mother or working with their father, they would play in the forests. They often read books borrowed from their nearby church together on the hard floor of their small home. Esme always chose the books of adventurers, tales of gore, glory, and danger. While Theodore tended towards books more grounded in reality like the histories. Theodore’s favorites were poetry books, Esme wouldn’t let him get two in a row because of how long he spent re-reading his favorite passages. As they grew up Esme would always tell Theodore about how she wanted to travel out of their town and see the world. Theodore would try and talk her out of it because it was dangerous (really he didn’t want to leave the safety of Weilheim and Esme leaving would make him lonely and feel like a coward). Eventually when she was old enough, Esme traveled to the nearby capital of Sunhold Cales. After her trip to the capital Esme was decided and set out a month later for good. By this point Theo had been working as a mason.
