Arsinoe is happy about his return, but she's concerned about Jules. Soon, Joseph is supposed to arrive back to Fennbirn. Arsinoe practices and practices, but she had no luck with her gift. The people of Wolf Spring had a large celebration for their queen's sixteenth birthday. Jules was to be sentenced to be the next midwife of the Black Cottage, but Jules' Aunt Caragh took her place to allow Jules to live her life.Īrsinoe turned sixteen and her naturalist gift still had not come. As punishment, Joseph was banished to the Mainland for five years and placed in the care of the Chatworth family. When they were eleven, the three tried to escape the island, but the mist would not let Arsinoe leave. Thus, Arsinoe moved to Wolf Spring and became the ward of the Milone family.Īrsinoe has become best friends with her foster sister, Jules Milone, and Joseph Sandrin.

When they turned six, they were separated and each sister went to live with the most prominent family of their gift. As is tradition for the queens of Fennbirn, she never knew her parents because Camille and Philippe left for the Mainland after Camille gives birth.Īrsinoe and her sisters spent their first six years living at the Black Cottage with the midwife, Willa, also as island tradition dictates. Arsinoe has never set foot inside a temple because she 'will not pray to a Goddess with a turned back.'

She is resourceful, has a sharp wit, and a feisty spirit. She is the most flexible and strategic of the sisters. She loves the outdoors, as all naturalists do. But once she gets to know them, she cares deeply for them and would do anything to protect them. Arsinoe can be harsh upon meeting someone new. Instead she wears and acts how she wants. She does not care about her looks the way many expect a queen to. She usually covers her scar with a black and red mask.Īrsinoe tends to not care what others think of her. She got a large scar on the right side of her face from the claws of a bear. She wears black clothes that are loose and described as 'rural.' Sometimes Arsinoe wears brown clothes, but never in public.

Arsinoe has short, shaggy, black hair and black eyes.
