No she lived as an indentured savants, as did her mother and father, paying off a deep debt to the master of the house. Evora was given to his youngest daughter, as a companion, which was not an uncommon practice. Noble girls needed company and supervision, and a low born child, of similar age was often used. However, like all those other low born companions, Evora also functioned as the daughter's whipping boy, taking the physical punishments incurred, when the daughter misbehaved. This left Evora with permanent scars on her back. The upside to the arrangement, was that Evora was brilliantly educated, and otherwise cared for. It wouldn't do for a noblewoman to be seen with an ill educated, dirty bumpkin. And it was noted early on, that she had talent as a cipher, a rate and valuable trait. The Lord was happy to see her schooled in it properly, as it served him well, in return. Though one day, the Lord died, and his son inherited. He saw the value in having such a skilled cipher, as a tool, and deftly maneuvered to keep possession of Evora. He transferred the remaining balance, of her parents' debt solely to get, and released her parents from their indenture. Thinking that they had been given a benevolent deal, none protested, because surely a personal cipher was worth more than a noblewoman's daily companion. And they were correct, unfortunately. As time passed, Evora's master continuously found reason to compound her debt to him. New clothes, fine weapons, a thoroughbred horse, on and on, for his personal cipher must be properly outfitted, cared for. And that cost money. She knew he would make sure, she was never free. So she ran. Telling no one, not even her family, to keep them safe, she fled Vailia. And then her story truly began. PERSONALITY Short summary of the character's personality!
