Biography
As Arlen and Jeph Bales are travelling, trying to get Silvy to get cured from a coreling attack, they take succour at Harl Tanner's farm where Renna gets to know Arlen more. While there, they overhear Jeph and Harl promising Arlen and herself, but Arlen ran before that could officially happen.
Many years later, with Illain gone and Benni marrying Lucik , Harl turned all of his attention to Renna and made life a living hell. Her only hope was to marry herself to Cobbie Fisher , but her plans were ruined when Harl found out and both respective parents wanted them to stay away from each other. One day Renna had enough and ran from home, trying to get to a safe place before nightfall. She went to seeCobbie but he turned her away. Later, feeling bad, Cobbie went to see her in private and Harl showed up and killed Cobbie with his knife and just as he sheathed it Renna pulled it out and stabbedHarl continuously. Soon after the bodies were found the whole of Tibbet's Brook blamed the now traumatised Renna and by the old law, she had to be left out to be dealt with by the corelings. Before that could happen she was saved by the Painted Man. It did not take her long to figure out the the Painted Man was Arlen , and asked if she could travel with him. As they set out he taught her many things about hunting demons and wards, she was an incredibly fast learner and did not take long to get the idea to ward her flesh as well, although her warding is made with Blackstem and is temporary.
