Lady Althea, Post-Searing[ | ]
After the Searing, this rosy picture was shattered. Though she survived the Searing itself, two years after it, Lady Althea was kidnapped by the Charr, causing her father to lead a desperate, and ultimately unsuccessful, rescue charge into the Breach to locate her. It was later discovered that she was brutally burned alive in the Flame Temple Corridor as a sacrifice to the Charr gods.
