The Lady Helissente is a character in the Ars Magica saga of Saxum Caribetum. Her journal, which contains information not necessarily known to other characters in the saga, contains her thoughts on the events taking place at the covenant. It is very far from being an unbiased account.
Helissente joined the saga some time ago, marrying Sir Achilles in the summer of 1223 at the age of 15. Just before the ceremony her uncle was revealed to be a werewolf, but as Sir Achilles lives with a bunch of wizards he was prepared to overlook that. In October 1224 she gave birth to her first son, Phillipe, who was not a puppy, much to Achilles's relief.
I started the journal with the Midwinter 1225 entry, although I am also filling in earlier events.
This journal is unlikely to gain much content for a while, as I am in Japan at the moment, and so I am not playing Helissente in the saga.
