Relationships

She meet Edward Lehman by chance one day, the two of them eventually fall in love. After they married Henrietta struggled to be intimate with Edward.<ref name=":1">Years of being on guard against men has her unable to even kiss Edward without her body tensing, her breath seizing in her lungs.  The more these fears come to evidence, the worse the experience.  She worries at the sadness in Edward’s eyes, if this fairy tale might end in some bitter irony, her prince turning away because he can’t understand why her breath and body act the way they do.

She concocts her solution.  Edward reluctantly helps.  A drug to mirror herself, transform her mind and body from sweet and gentle young lady Henrietta to the licentious woman Arietta.  Only a little, only with Edward, and only to unlock the feelings caged deep inside, that she does feel for him.- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref>

Arietta is her alter ego she created for herself so she can overcome her diffiicultes with Edward, after she is made forsworn she takes over her body.

Abilitiies

She is knowledgable about herbs and can use them for healing.<ref>She helps Edward with a chronic toothache, picking out the herbs his spirit companion helped her find- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref> She can create drugs that turn people into monsters,<ref>like drugs of the worst sort, to turn her into a monster strong enough to kill her family- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref> can made a drug that turned herself into a confident, assertive and promiscuous version of herself name Arietta.<ref name=":1" />

Chronology

She lived in a house for wayward and orphaned girls prior to coming to the New World, it was here that she Awakened.<ref>Henrietta, twelve, accidentally found her way into practice alongside a group of ‘sisters’, fellow students at a house for wayward girls and orphans, before being adopted.  One of her last gifts before her departure to the New World was an induction into proper practicing.- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref>

She was brought into the house as a domestic servant with the expectation that she would end up marrying one of the male children,<ref name=":0">She and an older girl were brought into the family from the girls’ home to help a family of one man and three older boys cook, clean, and sort things out.  The older girl married the father a year ago, and Henrietta is expected to marry one of the boys, an expectation that shapes her nights and mornings in the household.- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref> she escapes this fate by marrying a practitioner named Edward Lehman instead.

Due to her fear of men Henretta creates a potion to turn her into a licentious women named Arietta.<ref name=":0" /> One day her and Edwards home is ransacked and some of their papers stolen, including promises made whilst she was Arietta.<ref>A little bit later, while they are at Church, their home is raided and ransacked.  Among the things taken are papers.  While transformed, Henrietta’s alter ego was incautious with her words, and made promises- still ones Henrietta might have made, but because Henrietta’s memory isn’t always Arietta’s, Edward thought it wise to write down those promises, in case they were keeping.- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref> After learn that Henrietta can not lie her older step-brother tracks her down and declares her forsworn, as promises she made as Arietta to marry Edward contradict her promise to marry one of the brothers.<ref>The brother finds her again, and he names her forsworn.  She made promises, sober and of her own mind, that contradict oaths she made as Arietta, not truly herself, inebriated on chemicals, less binding.  On the one hand, she is to repay family, she is to honor father and mother, she is to wed one of her brothers.  That last extracted in a moment of desperation.

On the other, Arietta has sworn heart and body to Edward.  She swore to repay him for being her savior, to wed him.

These contradict.- Excerpt from Summer Break 13.2</ref>

After being made forsworn Arietta took over her body, she attacked her older step-brother and after several year of torture killed him.
