Ettenea

Ettenea was the mother of Shyni and the spouse of Tornoth. She and her husband were living happily in a species enclave of their species; however, this changed when Shyni was born. She was born unusually small and almost died, but lived on as a healthy, non-malformed but tiny baby. Tornoth didn't think much of it, but Ettenea was severely disgusted and passively hostile towards the newborn, possibly a rare case of postpartum depression mixed with the enclave culture of avoiding birth defects. After trying to starve Shyni, and attacking Tornoth for not killing and burying her (claiming she's a disgrace and shame to the family) and saying she will kill her daughter herself, he killed her in a fight and ran away with Shyni.

Nothing else is known about Ettenea besides this. According to Tornoth, she wasn't like this prior to Shyni's birth and he was surprised by how cold she was against another living thing, let alone her own flesh and blood.
