Ley's Role In Their Life: The face of Ley and His ten truths are held close to her heart, holding as much truth as that of the burning sun. She lives under the guides of His teachings, and through His grace she walks a most holy life.

Motivation: I would like to have her start out with the motivation to come to Boreas to bring Peg home, but if he be unwilling (which I assume he will be), then to help aid him as best she can and to ensure he is reminded of home and the teachings of Ley. Also because he is her brother and she loves him very much.

Personality: As the Truths command, she is a most honest and benevolent woman, never once to spread a lie or treat a stranger unfairly. She is humble, never to boast about her accomplishments and if she was to gain praise, she would commend it all by the grace of Ley. Her moral compass points in the direction of justice, seeking to right the wrongs done by those who work for evil, defending the weak or otherwise helpless. She could never stand by and watch pain being inflicted on others, nor could she possibly turn a blind eye to blatant disrespect or hate. Being more or less a born princess, she was raised to be posed and well mannered, speaking with as much politeness as charm, never to speak out of turn. She is a very level-headed woman, not one to let her emotions get the best of her, and always seeking to find a peaceful solution in any confrontation or conflict.

But not all of her qualities are that of a saint. Living with the mindset that only Ley's Truths and teachings matter, she can find trouble in following other rules set forth by unholy wolves. Her mind, so set in her ways, finds it most difficult to understand the thoughts of others when it so obviously contradicts her own beliefs. As such, she can find it hard to separate her religion from the situation, as she is almost constantly thinking of her actions in respects to the Face of Ley. This can be problematic in some situations and can even aggravate others unintentionally. In turn, though she tries her best not to judge others who had not yet been taught the right path, when other wolves and creatures alike disrespect her religion and her teachings, especially in front of her, she can become furious like no other. Though, this is probably the rarest side of her.

Sample Post: She had slipped out under the cover of night, draped in a satin cloth to hide her identity from those who might know her. For weeks now, she had been reliving a most dreadful dream of her dearest brother, Pegasus, in peril. Again and again the nightmare would return without fail each night, with the same dreadful ending that woke her in a panic. It had gotten to the point where she dreaded sleep, avoiding it like the plague until she would collapse from exhaustion. But why? Why was this happening and why would it not leave her? It was a question that racked her mind every moment of every day, causing her to walk the halls with a distant look in her maya eyes. Even a few times running into other nobles and having to apologize frantically for her clumsiness. Her closest friends became quite concerned for the princess, noting her lack of interest in food for several days in a row and her increasingly uncharacteristic behavior, that they sought to notify the Lady Helena.

Her mother did not have to ask what was causing her daughter's distress, for she too felt the strain of Prince Pegasus's absence. Instead, Sphinx was advised to seek council from Ley, for only He could answer the question she so desperately needed answered. Lady Helena was right to send her to Ley, because the moment she stepped foot within the halls of the church, a sense of relief washed over her form. The weight that had been pulling on her shoulders, yanking on the strings of her heart, and dragging her down was suddenly lifted, and all she could feel was a peace within her own body. Hopeful eyes cast their gaze up towards the shrine for Ley, who had guided her life without fail until now, knowing good and well He was there. She sat back onto her haunches and began to pray; pray for a sign, a solution, a meaning for these dreadfully awful nightmares! For many hours Hydra stayed in the church, praying for Ley to give her a reason, until the day had turned into night. Then, just when the candles were lit and her hope seeming to diminish, she felt a sudden urge; a desire to leave the kingdom at once and find Peg, wherever he may be, and make him safe once more. It was a most unnerving feeling, not something Sphinx would even have the thought to feel on her own, which made her realize it had to be from Ley. He was telling her to go find Pegasus, to bring hi home, to make him safe for he was in trouble.

So she slipped out the church doors, grabbed a satin scarf to wrap around her head and conceal her identity, and fled without a word. The light of the moon as her witness, and the guide of the stars to follow, she trekked across the kingdom for many weeks avoiding as many wolves as possible. She followed every lead she had on where ever Peg might have gone, until she came upon the border lands. There she crossed a point of no return, into a land of unknown, with only one goal in mind; to bring Pegasus home and make him safe once more.
