Erilyn Zorander

From Sword of Truth Wiki

Erilyn Zorander was the wife to First Wizard Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander (Zedd) and gave birth a girl that has never been named (this wiki calls her Mother Cypher). She would have been the grandmother to Richard Rahl.

She was killed during the war between the Midlands and D'Hara when Panis Rahl, the ruler of D'Hara, ordered a quad to come to kill her. They broke all of her bones and left her for Zedd to find. When Zedd found and attempted to heal her, a Worm Spell was activated which then killed her.

Before the quad had left, they also kidnapped Zedd's daughter at that point in time. Later however, with the help of Abby, Zedd was able to save his daughter.
