Vendla's early life isn't a very exciting tale.
She was just a baby when her parents moved their family from Dale to Bree-land, and being a baby, she had no knowledge of the long and arduous journey her parents and her sister Onnika, who was a mere 7 years old at the time, endured.
Though the journey westward was long, it was blessedly free of terrible dangers. Wild animals were the worst they had to deal with, and Vendla's father, Sigurd, being an excellent woodsman, was able to keep his wife and daughters safe.
The family moved into a modest cabin on the edge of the Chetwood, where Vendla learned woodsmanship from her father. When she wasn't out prowling the forests, she could be found dancing and making merry in the Prancing Pony in Bree, and flirting shamelessly with all the handsome men.
Then one day, while she was strolling along the main road in Bree, a tall, handsome woodsman stopped her to ask directions. Little did he know what he was letting himself in for.
He was different from the men at the Pony. He was older than most of them and she was drawn by his quiet, confident manner. She found herself following him around like a puppy, eager to learn more about him, and to learn his 'Rangerly Ways'.
It didn't take long for her to fall hopelessly in love with Cuarlang and she was thrilled to learn he loved her as well.
It was during the early days of their courtship that Vendla happened to meet Faral Garriden, the leader of The Alliance, and she knew right away that these were the kind of folk she and Cuarlang belonged with.
Within a few months of joining The Alliance, Vendla and Cuarlang were wed at the kinhouse. It was a grand celebration, and they were surrounded by all their friends and family.
Within the year, Vendla gave birth to their daughter, Abigael, and 14 months later, to their son, Cuon. They are currently expecting their third child.
While her early life wasn't very exciting, there's plenty to be had now, with the promise of more to come.
