~*~Gilwen~*~
Gilwen is a servant. Once a very loquacious child, she now resorts to silence. Ever shy and timid, it is quite a feat to draw a smile from her lips, though quite easy to draw a blush. She is small, and is often mistaken for being younger than she is. She loves both of her parents dearly, her White City, horses, the stable on the sixth tier, and now the Stable Master as well. Do not let her quiet appearance fool you, though; her mind is far from idle!

Loves
Love looks not with the
eyes but with the mind
and therefore is winged
cupid painted blind.

Family:
Mother :: Niniel
Gilwen and her dear Mama are quite close, though sometimes, Niniel wishes they were even closer. She is always inquiring as to everything that goes on in her dear daughter's life, down to her romantic interactions with her recent suitor. She does this, though, because she is lonely. She merely wishes to cure her loneliness with lovely grandbabies!
Father :: Beregar
Gilwen grew up very close to her father; he was strong, brave, and she was certain he was perfect. He is a prideful man, and will not seek, nor allow help to be given to him. Beregar loves children, but while Niniel was completely distraught over the fact that they only bore one child, Beregar was pleased for she was the perfect little girl he had always dreamed of. Too bad the man who is courting her is swine, and has convinced his daughter to let her morals loose.
Extended Family:
Faeron :: Uncle
Gilwen's uncle is Beregar's younger brother by two years. He is the same picture of physical strength and stature, though looks older than the soldier because of his hard labor on his farm out near Lossarnach. He is a very quiet man, unlike Beregar, and more thoughtful than active. However, his family means everything to him, and he shares the same stubborn-like pride that his brother has.
Merilwen :: Aunt
Merilwen is a farmer's daughter who thinks that she is part of the royal blood; or, at least one would think so by the way the woman acts. She was not always so haughty, and was once a gentle and loving spirit that Faeron adored. While he still loves and cares for her, her nagging and ceaseless complaints have certainly worn down the family closeness a bit. She wants the best for her daughters, though has grown to put herself first and foremost.
Merilla :: Cousin
Merilla is Gilwen's oldest cousin, though Merilla is yet younger than the lady by four years. She is headstrong and arrogant, just like her mother. She does not help upon the farm anymore and considers herself above such things. She plans to marry an upper class gentleman, believing that money is what creates love. She is addicted to fine things, and is critical of others.
Verya :: Cousin
While Verya is much alike to her older sister in appearance (and it is often that people mistake one for the other or think them twins), Verya is a mere 20 years old, a full two years her sister's minor. She is docile, though talkative enough. She is a hard worker when she needs to be, and is the closest daughter to her father. She and Gilly get along well enough, though they rarely get to see each other because of the distance between their homes. She is a bit of a hopeless romantic, and is instantly taken by the forbidden love story that her cousin is living, devoting her time in Minas Tirith to seeing to its fulfillment in marriage.
Others:
Faeldor :: Beloved
Faeldor calls her his "Starlight", and he is her steady sun; the one person she is sure will always be there for her. They were made for each other, and both of them seem to be increasingly aware of the fact. Her mother loves him dearly, after all, he takes good care of her daughter and is handsome. Surely the grandchildren will be just as lovely! Beregar, though, detests the man. But Gilwen is utterly in love, and cannot be swayed in her affections. Even after he left her alone for four whole days.
