Character Description: Ariah's Children. *As of page 367

Chandler:
 As a child he was a lanky, pale little boy. A recluse that would disappear for days at a time, without anyone knowing where he was. Had a tendency to hole up in library or go on very long walks by himself. Somewhat of a black sheep in the family. Took backseat to Royall and Juliet. But as a man, he has somewhat grown into himself and blossomed. Chandler has now beefed up, tall, Ariah even noticing he had gotten better looking. He is working as a high school science teacher in Niagara Falls and is in love with Melinda, an unmarried woman with a 1 year old child. It is obvious that Chandler has a kind heart, through his willingness to do the right thing and service within the community. He is a certified 'crisis responder', who goes to accident scenes to help wherever necessary, and also volunteers for the suicide hotline. Which is ironic that both those things are tied so closely with suicide. Chandler is very loyal to his family and is very protective of his mother and two younger siblings.


Royall:
Royall will always be Ariah's favorite. Since he was born he has been a big boy with beautiful flaxen hair, certainly his father's son. He is bubbly and outgoing, everyone who meets him falls in love with him. He is not as smart as his older brother, getting mediocre grades in school, but winning 'most attractive boy' in his class. After high school he goes to work for the Niagara Falls tourism industry, captaining an boat full of tourists across The Gorge. Royall cuts off his engagement to sweetheart, Candace Carpentry, because he feels he is "capable of loving a woman more", much to his mother's disapproval. Royall is a free bird who loves to be outdoors and on his own terms. Although he is not brillaint he is curious, begging for more out of life much to his family's surprise, he enrolls himself in the university. He is also desperately searching for more information about his later father.


Juliet
Juliet is Ariah and Dirk's first and only daughter. Ariah wants to love Juliet the most, and although she loves her, Royall will always be her favorite. Juliet is a sweet girl, who puts up with her mother's emotional turmoil and unexpected fits. She is creative a domestic, fixing up the house whenever she can. Juliet does have a fiery side; never afraid to speak out how she truly feels about something. She lovess her brother's dearly and is delighted when they are at home.
