History

Jeddia grew up at Fort Weyr, daughter of Lidia, the Roc Wingleader, and J'vryn, a Greenrider and son of J'vry, rider of Bronze Leoth. Jeddia herself grew up, cared for by her parents and their respective weyrmates, and often visiting her grandparents and her father's quite extensive family. She was always a pleasant girl, with a protective streak towards the younger kids, especially when they were being bullied. As she grew, she began to develop an interest in, and talent for, writing.

As the turns passed, Jeddia continued her apprenticeship. She also became close to another harper apprentice, a girl named Sorayah who was about a year younger than her. Eventually, both were posted to Ista Weyr, working together on their Journeyman project. While there, she met, and quickly fell in love with Firamar, a groundskeeper at the weyr. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons which she doesn't like to discuss, this had a bad impact on her friendship with Sora, to say the least. Eventually, the two girls had a falling out, and Jeddia went back to the hall, eventually accompanied by Firamar, who, thanks to an incredible talent for lyrics and storytelling, and with Jeddia's encouragement, himself became a Harper. Not long after, Jeddia submitted a new project, and was promoted, then posted back to Ista.

Her second stint at Ista was a lot less eventful. Although she and Firamar had pledged to be handfasted after he walked the tables, but this was delayed when he was assigned to Western. Jeddia buried herself in her work, until Firamar suddenly started writing. Making matters worse was another confrontation with Sora, who she had barely talked to for close to five turns, which managed to plant the seeds of doubt about Firamar in her mind. Not long after, Jeddia herself was re-assigned, being transferred to Eastern Weyr. Her duties withhe Crafter wing at Eastern made her welcome, and began to help her get over Firamar, until one day, a sudden and unexpected letter arrived. Firamar's disappearance was the result of his father suffering a heart attack, and the sometimes dim-witted Harper forgot to tell his betrothed that he was taking a leave of absence from the craft and returning to his family's farmcot until after the fact. The two lovers made up, and Firamar has since been posted to Eastern, along with Jeddia, where the two were planning both their handfasting and the arrival of their first child.

Eventually, the two harpers were wed, and had a beautiful little girl named Jemirra The little family was happy at the weyr for a few turns, until, one story day, Jeddia and Jemirra dissapeared, not to be seen again, although it was throught that, for some reason, she was called to one of the outlying holds, but never arrived. Eventually, Firamar, now a wiidower, was searched and impressed, Leaving Monaco Bay for Half Moon Bay…
