ILL.
(pronounced; Gill to rhyme with
"fill")
Mistra Gill, aka Gillie, was originally a serving-maid in the
Fourth Castle of Ankoor. Wed to Silent Thomas, Gill eventually went to live at
Castle Torm in McAnerin where she acted as chatelaine of Torm for Lord Merrit and his niece. Gill's grandmother was an Ankoorian kitchen
crone, so Gill has a few kitchen-magics she uses when she can avoid Lord
Merrit's scorn.
Gill is loving and strong-minded. She adores her son Gregory and is both proud and apprehensive when he becomes Lord Merrit's
servingman.
Gill is named for my friend and fellow writer Judy Griffith Gill.
She is featured in the book Candle-Iron . Her younger incarnation,
Gillie, appears in the 1992 title Amy Amaryllis.
