History
Katye was 15 when her father's bastard son was born. After her mother's death in 610, Katye was appalled to discover that her father's mistress had been given quarters within Varin castle and her son was being educated as a noble. Katye felt this was a betrayal of her mother's memory, but eventually came to know both Clara Rivermaid and her son, Matthew as family. Brother Markus grew up a little bit in fear of his half-sister. Katye was never quiet about her resentment regarding the timeliness of Clara's addition to the family and Markus learned early in his life to steer clear when Katye was "in a mood." By the time he was in his early teens, however, Katye had been formally betrothed to Hector Hadleigh-Morgan and Markus's own path into the clergy was set.
Shared Secrets
Markus presided over his sister's dual marriage to Hector and Simon. As a brother of the Loving Scales, he will always keep their secrets and they will always keep his.
