Lady Helling was a female Snowy Owl, the mate of Sir Garthnore, an ally of Hoole, and a member of his war cabinet.
History[]
Life before the Books[]
Hellig, like her mate Garthnore, was a member of the H'rathian Guard prior to Arrin's rebellion, but survived the death of H'rath and was rallied to battle once again by Siv to join the Battle of the Sacred Ring, fighting Arrin's army and surviving to witness Hoole retrieval of the Ember of Hoole.
To Be a King[]
Lady Helling is one of the eleven owls present at the parliament meeting that Hoole calls. While the others ask where power comes from if not the ember, Hoole states that magic is not a justifiable reason for power. Lady Helling agrees with the young king that magic is not reason, and asks why they should question it with reason.
