Uceek Family/Skye

Skye Uceek

28th March 2008 Mother, There is a man. He is a noble man from a distinguished family. He is a little rough around the edges, but sometimes when he looks at me I can see a softness and kindness that is well hidden. Yesterday he... kissed me. It was so warm and soft but he has not spoken to me since. I hope he will speak to me soon but I am not certain of what I might say. Oh, and I have been made Duchess of Ossmat and Banker of Old Grehk. Love you, Skye Uceek

Letters to Home The Uceek children had been playing in the woodlands when they found a young girl, the same age as the youngest brother Jobe. She was dirty, cold and hungry. The children took the little girl home and their mother began to care for her. She was raised in the Uceek family and affectionately named 'Skye' meaning 'winged' - as the mother always told her that despite her rough start to life she would rise up to fulfill her destiny. Skye stayed home longer than any of the other Uceek children, and left a full 3 years after Jobe left. She found it hard to leave the family that loved her, but she knew she had to discover herself. Keeping the gift of her name, she left for the isle of Beluaterra, knowing due to her unknown past she would be considered an outlaw on arrival. She hunted and foraged as a commoner for 4 years until she was recognised by the council of Old Grehk. She was asked to serve against the undead, and through her willingness to serve and die for her country she was recommended and accepted for nobility.
