~ Bump ~
: There were a few things I couldn't fit into the backstory without it being cluttered and difficult to read. :
~ She has five family members in all, her father, Willard, her mother, Clarissa, her eldest sister, Samantha,
her brother before her, William, herself, and her youngest brother, Thomas. This is mostly for clarification
purposes, since William wasn't a huge part of her as a character I didn't feel it necessary to try
making him a defining force in her backstory.
Samatha is the one who had gotten pushed off the cart, Thomas is the child that drowned. So it is now Willard,
Clarissa, William and herself that are living. (Well, I mean, they could all be dead for all intents and purposes, but
Melody wouldn't know what has happened to them since she left.)
~ As far as Melody's skills other than animal husbandry, more particularly horses, she practiced those skills regularly
though without much enthusiasm due to her reasoning behind it. So she started to hone them around twelve years
old, but as time went on, she simply started to through the motions rather than truly investing her energy into it. She
was about 18-19 when she actually stopped practicing and left home. Since then, those two skills essentially stopped
having importance to her and instead focused on her skills with horses as a result.
