Arboria meets the Eques

Arboria really didn't care for her family sending her off to the convent at a young age. She was certain the rooms were for older, more reserved, ladies. Still, she tried to do her best to meet father's directives.

Of course, all bets were off when the group she was traveling with were attacked by raiders and the goods, along with Arboria, were carried off. At that point she did start to have a decent prayer life. She also gave one of the brigands a knee in the groin for his wandering hands.

Fortunately a troupe of horsemen caught up with the raiders before they could escape. Arboria appreciated being rescued by the handsome young Roman Eques named Gwilim. They talked often, as the trip was interrupted by weather. Eventually both decided the whole chastity bit was overrated.

They have married, just in time for the family to start. Arboria worships freely as does her husband. They have traveled a bit and their son has seen several parts of the world with her parents. Now, however, he is a growing young man and seeking his one way in the world.
