Though she lacks the knowledge of her own origin she hopes to uncover this as well as all mysteries during her travels. What Narthorne truly desires is an idea world, one where everyone can be happy and nobody needs to suffer.

To her knowledge and understanding are the keys to making this all possible. It may be a foolish dream, but it is one that this Au Ra fully intends to see through!
History
What does it mean to be part of a world? Is one simply born into one never to leave, or is it more complex? Is our world the world, or can the various cultures and contexts of our world be considered worlds of their own.
This is the story of a woman caught between two worlds.
The Kujqai tribe is a powerful tribe of passionate Xaela. They follow the wind and through it attain fortune, glory, and personal satisfaction. Though they are not without loss, for no world can exist without loss. Many years ago a child of one of the couples simply vanished. Perhaps it was simply a minor distraction the caused the child to wander off. Of course the tribe would no doubt have attempted a search. However a sandstorm quickly put a stop to that. It was as if the wind itself told the Xaela that it had plans for this child, and that it would not allow them to interfere. Reluctantly the parents of this child were torn away from their most valuable treasure, never to be seen again.
The expedition of Lord Bartholomew Eldwright was coming along smoothly. This was not his first time in a foreign land. A professor by trade and a patron of all reason he made it a point to travel to places most dared not to go in order to bring back knowledge of these foreign lands to the world. Though having a background in adventuring before becoming a professor also helped. This time though was different. This time he returned with more than just stories and artifacts. This time he found a young Xaela girl on the verge of death. Unable to abandon her, Bartholomew took her in himself and brought her home. She was too young to remember who she was or where she even came from. So Bartholomew and his wife Madeline gave her the name Narthorne Eldwright and began to raise her as their own.
Narthorne proved to be an ideal daughter, brightening up each day with her smile and willingness to help her new parents. She managed to take after their passion for learning and discovery and decided to follow in the footsteps of her family. She would travel the world to learn all that she could to share it with all. Before she set off on her journey however, Bartholomew had something to return. A simple necklace of tribal origin that Narthorne had worn the day he had found her. And just like that she now had two goals. Not only would she seek knowledge, but she also would seek the origin of this necklace and her past with it.
And so began the tale of Narthorne Eldwright, a woman trapped between two worlds.
Personality
Narthorne's goal in life is to make the world a better place. To do this she wishes to follow in her father's footsteps, traveling the world to learn all that she can to bring everyone closer together and advance civilization. Her dream is a utopia where nobody has to be hurt and everyone can be happy. It's a bit sappy and even she admits that. But she truly desires it from the bottom of her heart.
Narthorne is a kind individual who will generally try and help out whenever and wherever she can. She just genuinely feels good about helping others. She also is a scholar at heart and loves to learn new things. Education is the name of the game with Narthorne, so if there's something that she doesn't know you can bet that she'll want to learn about it! The Au Ra is also pretty gifted, no doubt a result of both natural aptitude and the excellent education given to her by Lord and Lady Eldwright. Despite all of this though she is incredibly humble and even leans on the side of self-deprecating at times. She's much better at finding the good in others than the bad. However it can be difficult at times for her to see the good in herself.
Unfortunately though, Narthorne does have one major Achilles' Heel. She is haunted by memories that she can not even form from the time when she nearly died as a child. Because of this she has a fear of extreme weather, especially sandstorms. She herself has no idea why, but it's bad enough that it causes severe anxiety and she will avoid it at all costs. She can force herself to go through storms or harsh wind if something major is at stake but she cannot move through sandstorms. Her body and mind will not physically let her.
