Hjilde was an incredibly talented survivalist of some renown in her life, though in death she has become something of a local legend. Hailing from the White that Wends, she traveled and incredible distance to make it all the way to the Living Lands. Throughout her travels to and around the Living Lands, Hjilde was known as an extremely benevolent woman who made friends just about everywhere she went. Whether braving deadly storms at sea, the scorching breath of a drake, the frozen winds of her own homeland, or trudging through acidic bogs, Hjilde's spirits never dampened. She survived more dangers in her time than most kith can even dream of, and one day died peacefully in her sleep, surrounded by the many friends and allies she had made on her adventures.
