Ellara Hightower

Ellara Hightower is the first daughter of Lord Martyn Beesbury and Arianna Mullendore. Ever a spirited and popular youth, Ellara was matched with Olyvar Hightower. Despite initial misgivings, the relationship has flourished and the two have been devoted to one another through the good times and the dire.

Appearance and Personality
An eye-catching red-head with, Ellara is of average height, blessed with a curvaceous, fulsome figure, a fair complexion and bright, expressive blue eyes. She radiates confidence and poise, rarely is she to be seen in public without a honey-sweet smile gracing her lips.

Ostensibly, Ellara inhabits the role of the dutiful, pious wife & mother and an active and involved figure in the social circles of the Old Town and the greater Reach. A keen botanist and apiarist, the Lady is known to host garden parties and enjoys time spent beyond the walls of Oldtown.

In truth, Ellara is that and much more. At the heart of a hive of personal informants, Ella cultivates her crop of rumours, slanders, lies. Her talents for sowing seeds of distrust and disinformation have been hones for almost a decade. Lying with honeyed words whilst wearing the sweetest smile comes as second nature to the lovely Ellara Hightower.

History
412 (Age 0) - Born in Honeyholt to Lord Martyn Beesbury and his wife Lady Arianna. Healthy, fair-skinned and adorned with the red hair of her mother, Ellara is the firstborn child of the young Lord.

422 (Age 10) - Ellara's beauty is first remarked upon. A diligent and bright child, Arianna promotes the young girl's fascinations with the gardens and the growing things of Honeyholt.

423 - 425 (Age 11 -13) - Ellara is presented at Hightower for the first time at a feast, she is well received by the Lords and Ladies of the Reach and marked out as one to watch. The occasion lights a spark of passion in the girl toward the social life of a Reach Lady, she begs her mother to attend as many gatherings as is possible.

425 (Age 13) - Blue Winter Begins

426 (Age 14) - Early on in the Blue Winter, whilst supplies and moral had not yet dipped to their lowest depths, Ellara attended a banquet at which she first met with the young Olyvar Hightower. Even when young, Ellara was aware of her beauty and enjoyed the attention of the young noblemen, she was pursued for some time by young Olyvar but never allowed him to be close to her. Dreaming of a match with the Lord of Hightower, when Arthur came of age, or perhaps a Tyrell of Highgarden.

428 (Age 16) - Blue Winter Ends. Lord Martyn Beesbury and Dorian Hightower arranged a marriage between Lady Ellara and Ser Olyvar Hightower, much to Ellara's surprise and initial irritation.

429 (Age 17) - The wedding took place early in 429. Despite an awkward honeymoon period Ellara fell pregnant for the first time in late 429AC. Despite the initial distance, Ellara felt toward her husband her initial coolness was to thaw quickly. Thankfully, over the course of her pregnancy, the young woman fell thoroughly in love with the man to whom she had been wed, no small part due to his devotion toward her.

430 (Age 18) - Olymer Hightower was born, first child of Olyvar and Ellara, a healthy and hearty son, blond of hair like his father and the deep blue eyes alike his mother.

432 (Age 20) - Early in 432AC Lynesse Hightower was born, the second child and first daughter of Olyvar and Ellara. Born prematurely, the extensive time in the maester's care was necessary to help the child survive. Fortunately, both mother and daughter recovered. By the closing of 432AC Lynesse appeared as strong and healthy as her brother, though she drew most of her looks and colouring from her mother rather than Olyvar. The Second hammer uprising begins.

433 (Age 21) - The Hightower Affair occurs, and with it, Arthur Hightower orchestrated the deaths of eight members of House Hightower, including Olyvar's father Ser Dorian Hightower and several other figures whom were well known and liked by Ellara and Olyvar. He stopped short of ordering the death of Olyvar but Ellara has never seen fit to be thankful for the Kinslayer's mercy, considering Arthur's actions as a grievous betrayal of House Hightower and pandering to his dragonspawn mother and the Targaryen's of Kings Landing.

434 (Age 22) - Midsummer 434AC saw the birth of Gerold. Four year Winter begins

435 (Age 23) - Second Hammer uprising ends.

438 (Age 26) - Four year winter ends. Arthur Marries his Dragon Princess, thus cementing Ellara's long held belief that the Kinslayers act's were indeed the will of the Targaryens.

439 (Age 27) -
