Editing Ups and Downs - Quiescence (section)

== Quiescence ==

Pieta Pariqa was born in the North Docks amongst the throng of merchants and sailors, and would have become one of those if it wasn't for the extra eyes that she was born with. This was the mark of the Spider Goddess, Ishkrah. Her parents would have taken her to the Midwives, but an enterprising uncle thought it was good luck that she had survived and convinced the parents that he could look after her. He made a small amount of money from showing off the freak with multiple eyes to visitors, but mostly he trained her in the ways of mercantile deeds.

To the Aelfir Lords, she sold herself as an intermediary between the humans and Spire and thus was allowed to continue working in the Docks. After her durance, she returned home, only to see her uncle killed. This shook her, and so she found the Midwives and asked to be trained, perhaps to avenge him.

Quiescence is her name that she took on as a Midwife, to illustrate the virtue of stillness and not reacting. She is... not good at that.
