Tara Merrier was an elven member of the Union Workers and half-sister of Sara Merrier. She and Raul Emmenson were close friends and had feelings for each other, which was complicated by the existence of Raul's mad wife Madeline Emmenson. Tara died leading a Union sabotage and cripple operation on one of the Coalition's cities in 1017 AE. The Union has informed Raul that the mission he sent her on was successful, but neither he nor the Union spoke of the event past circumstantial reference although Raul and Sara did openly mourn her passing after their return to Hidefall.
