Trisha Thanerfind left Os'Nieh for Aesken when she married Gort Feigenwell at 21 years old. They were both from wealthy merchant families and inheritted the skills and the money to open trade in the Eskenic capital. Their commercial empire seed himself in the city and soon their name became well known and respected throughout the burg.

Thanks to his fascination and knowledge for ore and minerals, Gort made it his speciallity : opening mines and quaries in the Farangian mountains, buying deposits from his weaker competitors and squashing opposition with sheer worth, and a few hired arms.

This bourgeois familly implanted itself into the higher spheres of the capital, and even gained some toehold into the imperial council, by creating a merchant guild.

Alas, a few years after their son was born, Gort died from disease and left his now widow Trisha to manage their little empire alone. She was not disheartened however, and even while raising her child, she was still able to dominate the Ore markets all throughout Parcimia.
