![]() Eretria sneaked into the palace and easily seduced Wil once again, causing him to lower his guard when she spoke of her wish to be free from Cephalo and to start a new life. ![]() Later, Cephalo led his Rovers to Arborlon and ordered Eretria to sneak into the Elven palace to steal back the Elfstones, though Eretria demanded her freedom in exchange for the successful mission. It was only the timely intervention by the Druid Allanon that stopped him from killing her, knocking Cephalo out so that Wil and Amberle could escape with him. After Wil successfully fought off the Fury and was knocked unconscious, Cephalo confronted Amberle, who happened to be holding the Elfstones, and started choking her. The confrontation would have failed without the distraction of a Fury flying into the Rover encampment. However, Amberle refused to escape without Wil and briefly took Eretria hostage before confronting Cephalo. He stated that if she was going to kill the Elven princess, it would be on her own terms. Eretria balked at this order, as she believed only in killing to survive, not for sport, ultimately deciding to free Amberle. Later, when Eretria had once again stumbled upon Wil and Amberle and brought them back to Cephalo at their Rover camp he ordered Eretria to fight Amberle to the death in order to provoke Wil into unlocking the stones' power. However, he was mollified when she presented him with the Elfstones, which he recognized for what they truly were. ![]() They escaped with Eretria's horse and some of her stolen goods, though she did leave a silver cuff with the royal seal on it in exchange before she left, claiming that Eretria got the better end of the deal.Ĭephalo was displeased upon hearing that Eretria had come up somewhat short on her first solo assignment. She later encountered the runaway Elven princess Amberle Elessedil, who managed to avoid being drugged the same way as Wil. She took Wil back to an abandoned house, put him to sleep with drugged wine, and stole his Elfstones, not knowing what they were but correctly assuming that they were valuable. Her intentions were not altruistic: she was on her first solo thieving assignment on Cephalo's orders and was desperate to prove herself to him. ![]() When Wil Ohmsford set off from Shady Vale for Storlock, Eretria saved him from being killed by a Troll. She told Wil Ohmsford that she spent her days learning how to steal and her nights fending off Cephalo's men. She was then later sold to Cephalo for unknown reasons. Cogline was Eretria's guardian until she was somehow separated from him and sold to her first owner.Įretria has said that she has no idea who her parents are or what circumstances led to her being bought by an unknown owner early in her life. Before her mother died, she gave Eretria to Cogline to raise, who promised to keep Eretria safe after her mother convinced him that Eretria was just as able to be a force for good as she was for evil. This was until Cogline revealed she and her mother were descendants of a sect called Armageddon's Children, people who are part- Man and part- demon and who are therefore susceptible to being corrupted and controlled by dark forces.Įretria and her mother were constantly hunted by those who sensed their magic, and her mother was ultimately killed by a demon who sought Eretria. She does have a few vague memories of her biological mother, but she was in the dark regarding the circumstances that led to her mother's death. Not much is known about Eretria's early life. She is a Rover and the adopted daughter of Cephalo, the leader of their caravan of Rovers. Eretria is a main character in The Shannara Chronicles, based on the character of the same name in The Elfstones of Shannara.
