- Aline is superstitious of the number 19 especially if it’s on a Tuesday ( it’s the day her dad died, yeah long version for that)
- Things get to her more than they should and she tends to mask her feelings by playing the fool or making sure to stay oblivious to what’s going on as a defense mechanism.

- and so much more….
long version/ back story: Trigger Warning (Suicide) read at own discretion
  Aline grew up in and around Seattle, Washington spending most of her time with her grandparents and sister while her parents worked. Her sister and her where only allowed to watch the public broadcasting station for an hour or one of three movies( black beauty, lady hawk, and a documentary on Mount St. Helens May 18th 1980 eruption*) while there and spent the rest of the time drawing or playing outside if the weather permitted.
  Her parents divorced when she was 10 and her father remarried when she was 11. She didn’t like her step- mom or siblings mainly because her step mother seemed so fake and had higher standards that Aline and her sister Amelie could never quite reach.   The marriage caused a rift to form between Aline and her father. He couldn’t see what was happening nor understand it and tended to be on her step mothers side. Anything to make her happy.    Aline escaped mentally and turned to books she also smiled less and became withdrawn at school.
  Aline was walking through the woods one day exploring and photographing what caught her eye. When she walked between two trees and suddenly found herself to be on a completely different world. The dense undergrowth famously known in the Pacific Northwest had suddenly become tall grass and the trees where all different and set up in pairs. She turned around and saw the two trees she had just walked in-between and tried to back track, but nothing happened. Soon after she met M- the prince of a kingdom that bordered the valley of trees as she later found out. He was just as clueless as to her on how she got there except for legends in the past of tree travelers who once reigned over the valley and much of Gart’h and pointed her in the direction of the ruined tower. He ditches her there for reasons unknown (I haven’t figured it out plot wise yet). She ends up looking for and hunting down an artifact that had come from the valley of trees making friends along the ways, she gains the loyalty of Tiger Eye, The Wind and Lonely Star who later on come with her back to Earth.
  During her adventure she also helps a woman who had run away from her kingdom because of a prophecy concerning her. The woman falls in love with one of the men in the caravan Aline and her where traveling with and they marry. Aline parts ways with them for a year or so. On her way back to the valley of trees, to head home, she comes across the same caravan with the couple, they have a set of twins, brother and sister. Aline learns that   this is what had been prophesized and the couple along with the rest of the caravan fear for the babies lives. they managed to   hide one whenever an outsider was amongst their midst or while in town. But they wouldn’t be able to keep it up so Aline took the girl and passed her as her own as she traversed the rest of the way to the valley of trees. Once there she set base in the tower read some of the scrolls and records that where still legible to get an inkling of how things where organized if at all and how the process worked and then tested it with lonely star and the winds help she also had to find the two trees she had walked in between.   After a good deal of searching she found them and traveled between them to go home M-  reappears and watches over the infant on Gart’h as   she went on recon to see what year etc. it was.while Aline is on earth she meets back up with her sister and mom only a few hours had passed ( there’s some weird thing to explain the time thing like a tree traveler can choose the time they travel to as well as the planet) she eventually brings the baby over and gives her over to an adoption agency.
  In the years after her main travelling adventure her father divorces her step-mom with a half-sister to put a wrench in things. Aline watched as her father began to drink heavily and spew words of anger towards their now thankfully ex stepmom, then on a Thursday towards the end of November her grandfather calls to let her know her father was at harbor view medical center being treated for depression, because he had gotten in a car accident and later on the same day attempted suicide. The news shocked Aline and her sister and they went to go see him at the hospital, he pretended like everything was fine and reassured them that it was all going to be ok. Eventually he was released and they got to see their half-sister Allie on the weekends. Aline struggled through high school** and tried going to college but she found it hard to motivate herself she also started volunteering at a horse rescue near her aunt. She had fun and spent most of her free time with her family cracking off jokes making fun of each other and reading and if things ever got to tough she would visit the valley of trees just to take a breather.
  Then on January 19th of 2010 while she was taking the winter quarter off to volunteer at a horse rescue the phone rang at 2:00 am and her aunt came rushing over to her room with the news that her father had committed suicide. The news left Aline and the rest of her family along with his many friends devastated. After the funeral Aline continues to volunteer at the rescue then goes back to school for the summer before calling it quits.*** Aline ends up using the gold and gems she gained from her adventures to purchase land on the Olympic peninsula and build her dream stable. She made a point of planting two trees from the valley in her back yard of the property and encourages them to take on the form of two birch trees just like the ones in front of the first house she lived in. tall with white papery bark. She hires on Morgan and Azura as her two main trainers and Donald as a maintenance manager. Everything else plot wise generally falls into place from there.

*Because of this she likes black horses, scottish accents; knows that sometimes the good guys wear black and the bad guys wear white and thinks it should be that way more often because things aren't always what they seem; and Mt. St. Helens is her favorite volcano/ mountain after Mt Rainier/ Tahoma which is the one viewable from her property on sunny/ less cloudy days.

** She had trouble in english literature and composition she had to take sophomore english three times, junior english three times, and senior english twice. essays... writing her opinion and thoughts on things in the books based on the essay prompt. It stressed her to the point her mind would go blank and she ends up crying for hours. It was a mix of being afriad of what others thought of her opinions, being graded on it, and what she was thinking being misunderstood along with messing up on proper citations. besides all her fears and other negative thoughts would build up and she ends up writing about them instead. It transferred into college and she still can't write essays with out crying at some point. she only made it in her last year of high school because of a special education teacher buckling her down and forcing her to use the unfinished essays from her previous attempts. the upside Macbeth, Hamlet, Lord of The Flies, catcher in the rye, House on Mango Street, Poisonwood Bible, The Great Gatsby, The Things They Carried, and other books and poems are forever in her mind.

*** In real life I go on to work at the rescue/ stables for three years then get a second job at another horse stable for two years then quit both in March of 2016 because my aunt moves away to another state for a higher paying job in her field and rent around the area was too much for how little I was making ( I was being paid 2.50$ per stall not by hour 13 stalls in the morning and 4 in the afternoon one that has straw cus that horse gets pressure bruises and tends to cast her self and the other extra bedding for the same pressure bruising issues but he likes to mix his poo around so it takes twice as long to sift through it all, but pay was the same). waters and bringing horses in/ feeding them was not paid... but took just as long and some times longer if things came up like farrier, or some other emergency like colic or something else along those lines. and the closest place I could live was with my mom and that was a two hour drive back and forth by car, had to fill the gas up every day or every other day if I felt like pushing it. I now have a job as a dog groomer where I get paid hourly wages and much better work hours. and then covid struck and boss decided to use it as their excuse to retire ( they where planning on retiring at the end of the year anyways) so i'm currently unemployed and trying to figure out what i want to do next.
