Birdie was the young apprentice to the witch-warrior Niamh of Argyll.
Biography[edit | edit source]
At some point in her life, Birdie, a skinny, frail, and young girl, was assigned to Niamh as her apprentice and eventual successor in the role of their village's witch-warrior. However, Birdie lacked endurance and fighting skills and was considered unprepared for warfare. One day in 878, Birdie found Niamh praying and delivered two letters to her mentor, one intercepted from the British Hidden Ones and another sent by the Lady, who sought to have Niamh act as her spy and infiltrate the Hidden Ones. Though inexperienced and illiterate, Birdie was given a chance by Niamh and accompanied her mentor in her mission.[1]
Leaving quickly, Birdie saddled their horses with enough essentials and they rode to their destination. Birdie followed her mentor as they trekked towards Mercia. However, Birdie became tired quickly as she was not prone to long journeys. Arriving at Hadrian's Wall, Birdie was asked by Niamh if she was ready to venture forward and not turn back. Scared, Birdie agreed and passed through a large crack in the wall into Mercia. Continuing on their journey, Birdie was told that her fear was typical and that she must do what she was told by the Women of the Mist. Reacting quickly, Birdie agrees to try her best. Traveling through England's forests, Birdie and Niamh made a small campfire as Birdie was sent to scout the areas for any predators. After scouting, Birdie offered to stand watch as Niamh rested and slept, much to Niamh's reluctance.[2]
However, while Niamh was sleeping, Birdie left the campfire and was captured by three bandits. Pleading to be let go, Birdie's cries soon caught the attention of an awake Niamh. Although the bandits did not listen, Birdie told them that her mentor was dangerous as Niamh arrived. Despite Niamh offering to spare the bandits if they let Birdie go, they refused and continued to hold the young girl hostage. Birdie then watched as her mentor fought against two of the bandits, easily defeating them. Terrified, the bandit holding Birdie let her go and ran away, allowing the girl to run and embrace her mentor. Birdie was then told by Niamh to go home and did so without hesitation, admitting that the life of a witch-warrior was not for her.[2]
