Information

Istin'idur was once one of the better known herbalists in Desnind, knowing every plant the area had to offer. As she aged, she began to lose her eyesight, and is now very nearly blind, seeing only light and dark and sometimes blurs. Always an independent woman, she took this rather hard, but is finding ways to work against it, though she can still be snappish at times.

She can still identify some plants by touch, smell or taste, but has largely set it aside, leaving such things to the younger generation and instead focusing on teaching the old stories . She has one son, Awo'San, still living in Desnind with his family. although all Sev'ryn would make sure an Elder was provided for and looked after, Awo'san and his family take special care to make sure Istin'idur is comfortable.

Although prickly, Istin'idur will speak with any who come to her, be it for stories of the past, or for help working out a mystery plant and its uses.
