Intrigue:

Eurydice seems distracted, torn between the direct desire to aid those around her, while simultaneously drawn relentlessly towards some secretive goal. Haunted by some recent memories, she seems to shy away from more intimate relationships with those around her. Lured by a flicker of hope to make progress in her underlying mission after months of disappointment and devastation, she decided to join a party of adventurers to make some gold while learning more about the strange land she now occupies.

Since joining the adventuring group, she's lived in near-omnipresent danger, both from the creatures of the wastelands and its 'human' inhabitants in equal measure. During her travels, it was discovered by Drogen, the paladin of the party, that she indeed spoke another language in addition to one more ancient of the trees and beasts of nature: elvish. "I know this!" she squealed excitedly as she recognized the written language on the adornments of a cleric of the Ebon Scribes.

From that point on, she began to speak to Drogen more than the others of the party, somehow finding the ability to trust another outside of her inner-most circle in her secret home. As her trust grew, she involved him in her quest by having him read for her the secrets of piercing magical barriers. Little by little, she gained some of the knowledge she desired. In addition, she had a chance encounter with a man, whom after being rescued by her and her companions from a hive of over-sized insects, revealed to her that he had met one of her kind before. He took a message from Eury with her blessing and ran off into the desert sands (along with some water and food she sent him with.)

Later, Eury received a visit from a mysterious risen corpse who delivered a secret message from the dryad friend in the desert. As new challenges tested the limits of her secrecy, she decided to bring Drogen further into the fold by resurrecting his corpse in a mysterious ceremony in her home. Threats of old foes has pushed up the timetable on accomplishing her mission. Who knows what's in store for her next?
