       History
       Of the various tribes of the Plantae the Dren are known to be
       the most fierce and warriorlike, protected with thorn and sting,
       the last to fight against the Pryv. Less well known, even among
       the Plantae, were the first to face the Pryv's attentions. The
       Florr were not the strongest, fiercest, fastest, or sturdiest
       tribe but they were known for bringing joy with them wherever
       they went. It was said that the Florr exuded happiness such that
       you could smell their village from a mile away and draw peace
       into your lungs as you did so. It is for this reason that the
       Dren often sent their warriors most in need of rest there for a
       season or two when even they had wearied of fighting, and for
       this reason that they would return more determined than ever to
       protect the forest and its people.
       When the Pryv came to the forest, they were drawn to the
       happiness and the peace of the Florr village such that by
       morning it had been destroyed, despite the best efforts of those
       few fighters among them. There were few survivors, those who
       escaped the chaos, but they took the seedpods with them. Iona
       never spoke of the attack, only that a Dren warrior had saved
       her, and died in the task. Eglantine was the youngest of the
       children Iona raised, each of them named for the parents they
       would never know, but she was named for the Dren who had saved
       them instead (his name being Briar) and took Ion as a surname
       for the woman who raised them. There were a few theories among
       the children, that Iona did not know whose child she was, that
       she was Iona's child, that she was actually a Dren child whose
       mother had been visiting the village (perhaps the one who saved
       them) and not a Florr at all (something that was soon discounted
       when she grew to adulthood and the distinctive scent of the
       Florr was revealed). The truth may never be known, as Iona was
       lost to the Pryv when Eglantine was 15.
       Despite the hardship of her early life, Eglantine has known a
       great deal of kindness as well, those who have raised her and
       helped her, and who have taught her a great deal. She prays to
       the goddess every day to protect her people and guide them
       through this Winter. She has faith that despite their losses
       there will be a Spring for her people and that they will grow
       anew. Sometimes seeds must travel far to find good soil to take
       root. The Pryv fascinate and terrify her, she wants to know more
       about them and how to find a peace but their very presence sends
       shivers through her (with good reason). There is a part for
       everything in nature, bees and butterflies tend the flowers
       after all, but the Pryv spread like wildfire through the forest,
       and like wildfire they will burn themselves out and the forest
       will grow again.
