The Ageless Promise

Dahlia

A young woman of rare beauty, with skin as pale as icing sugar, lips always painted jet black, clear blue eyes lined with kohl, and long black hair held by silver clips shaped like withered flowers or cobwebs. She wears long black lace dresses and an apron embroidered with little skulls, but at heart she is simple and kind, and constantly misunderstood. Her cakes are marvellous.

Originally from Ustalav, she ran a pastry shop in Birka, where Ragnar lost his heart to her; at the start of the winter she moved to Kintargo.
