Early Years

Autumn was born Septemeber 17, 1745, under
the name, Jorun Furuholmen. She was the
middle child to 7 children. Being the oldest
of the only two girls, she grew up in a male
dominated household.
Along with her 6 bothers and sisters, she
lived with her Parents and Grandmother. Life
wasn't easy, for they took care, and helped
the other members of their village. They
served as doctors, farmers, and peacekeepers.
From an early age, she helped as much as she
could. She was a beautiful child, her
sparkling green eyes, and dark hair, often
brought attention. She had a wonderful
personality, and was always happy.
She was quick to learn, and hard to keep up
with. Being curious, she was always off
exploring, asking questions, and being a
general bother. Her innocent smile, and even
temper, often got her out of trouble.
As she got older, and other family members,
moved away, or passed on, she became a
mainstay of the household. Shouldering most
of the responsiblity, she took care of her
younger siblings, while studying, and keeping
up the household. Her parents, were busy,
and gone a lot of the time.
Seeing as her only sister was born weak, and
frail, her Mother begain staying home more,
and Jorun, begain taking her Mothers place in
the community. She became the doctor, and
the one who solved the disputes. Her level
headed thinking, often brought quick
results.
No matter what she did, or how much
responsibitly she shouldered, she kept her
humor, and her wonderful personality.
Although, she had many men wanted to pursue
her, she felt that her family needed her
more, and turned them down quickly.
At home she was a busy person, but she could
go from being a woman, to the most roudy
tomboy. She loved the outdoors, and whenever
she had any spare time, it was outside. She
brought home the wildest of the animals, and
yet it seemed as if they were tame, and
always had been. Yet, at Court, she was the
most distinguished of Ladies. She was the
most proper, refined, young woman.
As she was then, and to now, she remains
loyal to her friends. The ones she cares
about come first. In her mind nothing
matters, but them. She cares for them first,
and herself last. Such as time moves on, She
remains the same in that respect.
