She is renowned for being a Level 50 individual, and that her people would never go hungry as long as she lives, thanks to her rock soup skill. == Appearance == While she is in her sixties, she looks like a younger woman in her forties.<ref name=": 8.08 J">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/02/17/8-08-j/ Chapter 8.08 J]</ref> == Personality == TBA From [https://wanderinginn.com/2021/02/17/8-08-j/ Chapter 8.08 J] == Background == Geraeri’s tale is the tale of someone who had risen to her level despite adversity. She had not been born into the line of succession. She had not even been related to her [Herdleader], how they reckoned such leadership. Her time begins during the time of a terrible winter era, in King Meriden regime, when the People of Zair were poor, their [Herdleader] had died from a plague that ran through the herd, and the People of Zair were infighting. It got to the point where the River Wardens fought them, and the crown debated expelling them from the land, as they were no asset to the kingdom. At that time she rallied her herd, kept them alive, and then began to trade again. She negotiated an end to fighting, and unified the herds around hers. When she had reached Level 30, and was still younger in years, the [Herdmaster] of the People of Zair decided that Geraeri was trying to usurp their way and declared a civil war. A war that she won. The struggles she faced during the civil war helped her reach Level 40, and after going through time and hard work for the next 30 years, because the People of Zair were so large, she reached Level 50. Under her, the People of Zair had turned in decades from a nomadic tribe that could be accused of banditry and thievery and certainly was poor, into a power on its own level of riches and prosperity. And thanks to her rock soup skill, they never suffer from hunger.<ref name=": 8.08 J" /> == Chronology == When the newly appointed Queen [[Jecaina Leysars]] of [[Jecrass]] was at war with both the [[Reim]] and [[Medain]], she found out that Geraeri was a person over Level 50, and that for some reason Flos and his army had never tried to take the area of land were the People of Zair lived. She decided to go see her and to try to recruit her and her people to fight for the defence of the Kingdom. When Jecaina meets Geraeri, during their talk Geraeri told her how she reached her Class and Level during the People of Zair's lean years. She also shows Jecaina her great rock soup skill. When Jecaina finally asked her to fight for Jecrass to repel the King of Destruction and Medain, Geraeri refused her as she does not want to risk her people going down with Jecrass. Geraeri also tells her that she had refused her father, King [[Raelt Leysars|Raelt]], when he had asked her the same, just as she had refused the King of Destruction when the Shepard [[Zamea]] had approached her to fight for him, even if she would have received vast lands of Jecrass as a reward. Geraeri tells her that should Jecrass fall the People of Zair will not fall with it, and if they can not trade with the new ruler, then they will simply move to another land, even if they have to fight to do so. Jecaina would continue to plead and offer incentives for three whole hours, but Geraeri would keep refusing. Around a month later, when Queen Jecaina had asked and received help from the kingdom of [[Khelt]] by selling him some of Jecrass' lands, Geraeri would came find her and accuse her of selling ''their'' lands, the same lands that the People of Zair were born on. Queen Jecaina rebukes and reminds Geraeri that she herself had told Jecaina that the People of Zair are nomads who move from place to place, and as such those lands were never theirs but Jecrass'. When Geraeri tells her that they had been living in those lands for decades, Queen Jecaina tells her that they may still keep living there. But only if [[Fetohep]] of Khelt allows them to stay. And that if he does, then they would become people of Khelt and Fetohep would rule them.<ref name=": 8.08 J" /> _ TBA == Powers and Abilities == === Classes/Levels: === * [Stonesoup Herdmistress of the Greatland] Lv. 50+<ref name=": 8.08 J" /> ** Derived from [Eternal Rocksoup Cook] and [Herdmistress of the Land]<ref name=": 8.08 J" /> ** [Eternal Rocksoup Cook] was derived from [Rocksoup Cook], which was derived from [Cook]<ref name=": 8.08 J" /> === Skills: === * ??? - A Cornucopia like Skill that works by putting a rock in a cauldron filled with water and covered the lid.

I greet you, and offer condolences for the capture of your father. We sent gifts to your coronation—I am Herdmistress Geraeri of the People of Zair.” ** “Have you not heard that the People of Zair will never go hungry as long as I live?” ** “In truth, your Majesty—it is not. I know of greater classes and Skills. I have reached mine, but I am humbler now than the woman who united the People of Zair. I am content for this greatness. I have at least two decades left! I intend to spend it living fat and well!” ** “We love the land, your Majesty. But we have never benefitted from its protection. We are ''nomads.'' If the time comes, we will move.” ** “You have sold our lands, the lands we were born on, Queen of Jecrass!” * [https://wanderinginn.com/2021/06/06/8-26-fk/ To] [[Fetohep]]: **“The People of Zair are not weak, King Fetohep. Against Khelt, though? I will not send us into certain death. I only ask for your wisdom, as you demonstrated with the ruling of Lyfelt. This…is it ''fair'' that we should be forced off our lands? I prevail on your honor.” **“Harsh requirements, your Majesty. I would have called it generous beyond belief, but this last? It will—unmake the People of Zair as they are.
