Status: Chief Healer of Kriana / Nobility
When Ambrose was born, his father – a wealthy, powerful landowner in the old order – was delighted to have a son and heir, and when Ambrose’s magic was discovered, his father immediately hired the best tutors around to teach his son to become a great warrior. Unfortunately for Ambrose’s father, Ambrose was never very good at battle magic. It seemed that Ambrose was more suited to healing magic.Thus, when the War of Rebellion began, Ambrose was at the front lines – not as a warrior, but as the Head Healer, for all those years of training had made Ambrose the best Healer in the area.It was during a particularly bloody battle that a girl of eighteen or nineteen was brought into the Healing Quarters. The girl was a warrior for Kriana; she’d been burned on one of her arms by one of the enemy mages. Ambrose was, of course, able to heal her, but even he couldn’t stop most of the scarring.For the next few weeks, the girl spent much time in the Healing Quarters, letting her arm heal. And, though it was frustrating to spend so much time as an invalid, the girl and Ambrose quickly became friends. The girl revealed that her name was Flora and that she’d been the daughter of a boat-maker – a peasant – and she was a childhood friend of the Rey family.Ambrose had been instantly smitten with Flora, but, being shy, never revealed his true feelings during their time together. Eventually, Flora returned to battle and, after the war, both Ambrose and Flora were rewarded with lands and titles greater than Ambrose’s father’s had ever been.During the ceremony at which they were both rewarded for their services in the war, Ambrose decided to risk it all and declare his love to Flora. They were married a few days later, Flora having been as much in love with Ambrose as he was with her since their last time together.Now, Ambrose is Chief Healer of Kriana and Flora, though a Lady, still finds ways to use her skills as a warrior…
