The woman -- barely more than a girl, really -- stood with slow dignity, like a ribbon unknotting itself. With her motion came a chorus of tiny silver bells, bone beads clattering one upon another, and the hollow ringing of wood upon wood. Peripherally, he noted her long train of hair slipping down to cover her exposed lower back, black water falling over rocks.[1]
- The Lady of Ithaenc, prophetess and priestess of the Ithaenc Cathedral.[2]
- The Falatacot descent is implied by a letter to her by Lady Maila[3][4] and utterances of representatives of the Eldrytch Web, Radiant Blood and Celestial Hand [5]
- Accused by Lady Rajael Fellarien of using dark (blood?) magic involving slaying creatures and using her own flesh seeking power.[1]
- At the beginning of his reign, Emperor Caerlin I convicted the Lady Rajael Fellarien of desecrating the island of Marae Lassel, a nature preserve and religious retreat. For her crime, her line is divested of its nobility and she is stripped of the title of Protector of Marae Lassel. Her accuser was the Lady of Ithaenc, Lady Adja. [1][2][6]
- Adja was a member of the council that imprisoned Ilservian Palacost in the crystal array[7][8][9]. All members of the council died during the imprisonment of the Hopeslayer except Asheron.[2]
- Responsible for teaching Lady Maila, Asheron's mother how to transfer her life force to Asheron.[10][11]
- Founder of the Adjanite Order, who looked upon the Light Falatacot for inspiration ??[5]
- The Adjanite Order was sometimes referred to as the Adjanite Heresy [12][9] since some of their tales were not told by the church and also heretical.[13] Nali Valind called out for the extirpation of the Adjanite heretics, and Ithaenc Cathedral was sacked and desecrated. This led to the disappearance of the last Gromnatross, Aurlanaa, from Aerlinthe.[12]
