Here I will be following the development of Khylynnia and her story as she progresses through her life in Elanthia

Khylynnia SparrHawk

                                                                   Excerpt from TownCrier Interview Sessions with Khylynnia
    Leafiara inquires, "Is there anything else you'd like to say to our readers that we didn't cover in the course of the interview?"
    Khylynnia thoughtfully says, "Actually yes.  There are a few things..."
    Khylynnia softly says, "First, Never let the tribulations and pitfalls get you down.  I am not a powerful bard, and as such I have had my fair share of stumbling blocks in my path, in fact getting through my thirtieth training cost me twelve deeds, but I keep fighting on and will not allow that to stop me."
    Khylynnia softly says, "Second, Follow your heart.  Don't get caught up in the daily grind.  Take time for yourself, and spend time getting to know the people around you...some will be a delight, and make your day more enjoyable...others will make you want to stab them in the face with a pitchfork...like that bastard Rheteger..."
    Khylynnia softly says, "Third, and this is the most important in my opinion..."
    Khylynnia softly says, "Do with your life and your career what YOU want to do!  Never let anyone dictate to you how you should live, or who you should love...Only YOU know what is in your heart and your future, and as such anyone who tells you to be or do otherwise is only going to cause you to be unhappy."
  • Khylynnia was Wed to Jhenni SparrHawk on Leyan, the 1st day of Lumnea, in the year 5116.
  • She has two "chosen" sisters - Ayumia and Sarlena - They are not blood related, but they have become as close as siblings
  • Khy shares a bond with Evician and they are as close, if not closer than siblings
-UPDATE: It turns out that her bond with Evician is more than they originally assumed, and they have discovered that they are in all actuality Twins, with Evician being the elder.
  • She calls Cruxophim her dyre'myhrano, and she sees him as a mentor/big brother

Bre'Naere

    Bre'Naere is the planet on which the ancestors of the Aelotoi were taken to by the Arkati L'Naere during the Ur-Daemon War. The planet was a paradise until the arrival of the Kiramon, a parasitic insect-like race. Banished there by the elves in an act of self-preservation, the Kiramon have reduced the planet to desolation by consuming all its resources and in the process, turned the Aelotoi into slaves. 

Born on the fifth day of Eorgaen in the year 5094 of the Elanthian Calendar, Khylynnia is a native of Bre'Naere. Life as a child among the Aelotoi on Bre'Naere was harsh at best, short at worst. (to be continued)

Cysaegir and training in the Bardic College

Moving to the Landing

Upon completing her training in the Bardic College, Khylynnia spent many long days and nights thinking about her future. The Elven Nations and Cysaegir felt...wrong...to her somehow, her rekindled understanding of and belief in L'Naere gave her reason for doubt in the Elven leadership and she harbored mistrust of their intentions. Having no family of her own, she no longer felt a link to the town or the region, and traveled to Ta'Illistim to find answers. The vast libraries of the house of Illistim provided a great distraction for a while as she scoured the tomes housed within their multitude of chambers.

After many months of reading through the books, Khylynnia's perspective began to clear, the fog of doubt clearing as she read more and more about the western towns. Wehnimer's Landing kept coming back to the forefront of her research and study as the days passed, and in time, her mind was made up...She would pack her meager belongings and travel west across the DragonSpine Mountains. Using the last of her coin, she paid for a travel guide and began her journey in earnest.

The human lands were different. In general they seemed less refined, but there was an excitement, an electric charge in the air, that she never felt while living under the thumb of the Elves. The farther west she went, the more intrigued she became as she saw so many different people. Halflings, gnomes and krolvin were more prevalent this side of the mountains, and she found herself intrigued as to how well everyone got along, different races working together, half-elves were seemingly everywhere, and they were ACCEPTED here.

Tips and Tricks

Compared to most of the Gemstone Community, I am a rather new player, having only started playing Khy in 2015. This has had me taking my gameplay into different directions than most others due to my past experiences in in so many other games. Below I will be detailing some of the more useful "tricks" I have found that work really well for me.
