Quanista and her parents Gylynn and Tern lived just outside of Great Forks. Quanista, from early life was always a happy girl but a little different from her peers. Starting at about age 5 she knew this and wandered off into the woods frequently where she developed a love and respect of nature.
The first youthful jaunt of course, caused a great stir and a lecture about safety from her parents along with her father taking him with him on his trips woodcutting, hunting and other types of trips more often. She spent many hours listening to him talk about different plants and animals and their place in the life cycle and how to stay safe. After a while she was allowed to go off on her own. When her father went to town or to other cities she usually went with him for companionship and on those trips developed some relationships with various people at each place.
Her mother taught her to do the usual cooking and mending type chores during what passed for winter months in the area.
With this type of background Quanista grew up well adjusted and much happier as she loves to learn and read things.
Quanista's parents, unbeknownst to her, before her birth had been Guards of the Realm. Though technically retired at a very early age due to Glynn expecting Quanista they were eligible to be recalled to active duty as soon as the child turned 12.
It was one night just after Quanista turned 12 that her parents had a visitor and Quanista was give a very brief hug as she was dropped at the local monsetary and her parents disappeared into the night.
