Aspen does not remember much of her past before her arrival at the warriors barracks which lay on the grounds of Queen Esmereldas castle - and no-one seems to be in the mood to talk about it either. Whilst some might pity the orphan, she enjoys her life ( even though she has nothing else to compare it to ). In between required training she loves exploring and finding hidden spots around the castle grounds. However her confines have not kept her deaf to the outside world, she was lucky to be places in the barracks she was - the second best would have been with the seaside fighters but everything after that was hard and difficult from what she had heard. In the forest you often encountered large beasts and intruders prowling around, the thought of that worried her enough that she didn't dare imagine what the outposts were like, they only sent children there over the age of 14 who showed proficiency in their craft and a willingness to stay in the forces after required age...the thought of ever being sent out to the outposts sent chills down her small spine.
