Mirna Dendrar
Widow of the murdered Thel Dendrar. Mother of Nars (13). Held for ransom in the cells beneath Tresendar Manor since the day of her husband’s murder — rescued by the party, Session 7.
What’s Known
Mirna was a thoughtful, quiet woman who helped run her husband’s woodcarving shop on the south side of Phandalin’s town square. She kept the books, handled the customers, and was known for the small spice garden she tended beside the shop.
On the day Thel was killed by the Redbrands in the street, several townsfolk saw Redbrand thugs return to the shop within an hour. Mirna and Nars were not seen again. The shop has been shuttered ever since.
The townsfolk feared the worst. Trilena Stonehill, who was a friend, left flowers at Thel’s unmarked grave-stone every tenday and refused to speak of Mirna in the past tense.
She was right not to.
The Cells
The Redbrands kept Mirna and Nars in the holding cells beneath the manor — ransom stock, after Thel refused to pay for protection. One guard, iron bars, filthy straw. When the party opened the cell she did not weep. She asked them to find Thel’s body and bring him home. They said they would.
The party put the two of them in red cloaks, walked them up through the cellar and out of the ruin, and sent them down the hill toward town in the small hours of the morning.
What She Has Mentioned
An emerald — a family piece, from before Phandalin. She has not said more than that yet.
