Altra Sonde is the mother of Sir Owen Sonde and a minor Faladian noble. She was kidnapped by a Kinshra raiding party some time in the 140s of the Fifth Age, while her husband Stario was away in court. Upon return, his Altra was gone and Owen was left with a large wound inflicted by a knight. Stario was stricken with grief and the event ended the good relationship he had had with Owen. Whether Altra is still alive remains unknown.
