Maebra (11), the lord's only daughter, oversees the younger children. Kindyn (9) and Llod (5) share a bed, although it is becoming crowded. But Kindyn is soon to become a squire and will leave the manor. Kindyn is also very talented in music , which has been noted by minstrels coming this way. In this household nobody except Darin, Eldmain's cousin, cares for that.
