Ellyn was a soft-spoken girl near Phèdre's age with blue eyes who was an apprentice at Cereus House. She had a younger half-brother named Etienne and shared a room with Phèdre and another girl, Juliette. Her frail beauty, pale skin and blue eyes marked her as a certain adept of Cereus House once she came of age. Ellyn was a kind girl, and after Phèdre's first escape from Cereus House when she met Hyacinthein Night's Doorstep, Ellyn snuck Phèdre a biscuit after she punished with no supper. Along with other young fosterlings, Ellyn served joie at the Midwinter Masque held on the Longest Night by Cereus House where Prince Baudoin de Trevalion played as Sun Prince.
