Tahye

Tahye (tah-hyay)

A servant in Imotah's household.

Life Before the Series
After her mother died in childbirth, Tahye was named by Imotah, and allowed to be raised by the servants until she was old enough to become one herself.

Orope
Working under Mistress Ankhet, Tahye meets Kareth. She is the only person close to his age who treats him with any kindness, and a friendship begins to form.

Physical Description
Tahye is young, described as being "at that awkward stage between girl and woman, her face had the full cheeks of youth, but her limbs were long, and the hint of breasts on her chest" and being "taller than most [boys], though far thinner and of lighter skin. She looked very delicate next to the gruff crowd." She's described as wearing "a simple white shift and a plain black braided wig" and being not "too much older than [Kareth]. She had a big nose and a small chin and... looked rather funny. Yet her smile was kind."
