​A rose with many thorns, she is said to be. For her beauty should never be mistaken for weakness. On the contrary, the maple queen’s character is full of temper—just fitting for a daughter of the dragon.

​​Like her mother, Aronya is known for ruling the Red Forest with sovereign dominance and feminine superiority. Strict rules are in place regarding the role of men in her society. Never again should women be oppressed, as it was common during the era of the Witcher Kings. A man’s disrespectful behaviour towards his mistress and a lack of devotion for his tasks therefore face severe punishment under her reign…

At times, Aronya and her Nemesian counterpart, matriarch Azana, might disagree about her hard course in the treatment of males. But other than that, the baroness holds the council of her Southern childhood friend in highest regards. After all, both women by now are indeed family to each other since Aronya coupled the countess with her cousin Arayon. 

A shame is the lack of opportunity to lurk into the couple’s bed chamber sometimes.​ Rayan’s matriarch lives for such wild passion. ‘Feral beasts shall not be separated’ is her credo, and so her greatest delight is it to observe and fuel secret desires. Of all things, were it men, who had respectable influence on female desires. In Aronya’s own case, this involved an aspiring young detective of Rubinburgh’s crime department…
