— Aelis (Fist Recruit)

Involvement

Aelis is encountered at the Waukeen's Rest, struggling to get inside the burning inn together with her fellow Fists -  Fist Recruit Ito,  Fist Recruit Pavel and  Fist Recruit Tristan, along with  Gauntlet Yeva. They are trying to rescue  Counsellor Florrick and  Duke Ravengard who are said to be blocked inside the building.

If the party help the Fists to unblock the front door, Aelis with the rest of the squad runs upstairs to the room where Florrick is trapped, and descends back after the counsellor’s fate is resolved.

If Florrick survives, Aelis receives her orders (with the other Fists) to search for the kidnapped Duke and, after leaving the Inn, is never seen again.
