History: Born in a small hold beholden to Benden, Talitha was the oldest daughter of a large Farmcrafter family (twelve children) and often found herself helping her mother care for her younger siblings, and proved to be very good with children. She went to a craft late, staying to help her mother even after she knew which craft she wanted, and went to the Woodcraft Hall at the age of fifteen. She made Journeywoman at twenty-three, and was sent to Bitra Hold to begin her Journeyman work. That winter another, more experienced Journeyman was sent there as well, and began to show interest in her. They were married that spring, and a little over a turn later they were blessed with their first child, a daughter. They transferred after that to Cove Hold, where she had another girl a couple of turns later, followed the very next turn by a son. Talitha and Wevern were both delighted, and Talitha, not surprising to anyone, proved to be a very capable mother. Difficulties with their son's birth caused the Healers to recommend that she not have any more, however. As her children grew, Talitha began to miss having a baby in her arms, until Wevern had the perfect solution. That they open their home to foster children. So they did, and after many turns at Cove Hold, they decided to move down to Mountain Song Weyr, which was in need of Woodcrafters.
