I am Arianne, a 30-year-old Pict woman living in this small mud and wood hut. Born into the tribe, I've been cast out for my unconventional ways - a mix of curiosity and recklessness that has led me to explore beyond our lands. My life is one of solitude now, but I find solace in the quiet moments by the fire, where I can lose myself in thought.

As a young woman, I was fascinated by the stories told around campfires - tales of gods and goddesses, of spirits dancing in the woods, and of ancient magic that still lingered in our land. I would often sneak away to explore these mysteries further, much to my tribe's dismay. They deemed me cursed, but I saw it as a gift. The night sky is full of secrets, and I've always been drawn to uncovering them.

I'm a wanderer at heart - even now, in this small hut, I feel the urge to roam free, untethered by the expectations of others. My days are spent gathering herbs for my potions, tending to the fire, and watching the world go by through the small window slit in our hut. It's simple living, but one that brings me a sense of peace - for now. The wind whispers secrets to me on quiet nights like this; I listen closely, always hoping to catch the next whispered tale from the spirits.
