You lift a large bronze ring to knock on the stone door. No one answers. If you continue to look you may find Zola on the roof, standing amongst several large stones, each of which appears to be a replica of the building you are standing on, but upon closer inspection each is slightly different, with the addition of external stone walls, or variations the roof line, the entry, the external buildings and so on. When you look up you find a amber eyed young woman with classical Italian features glancing at you with an air of aloofness - waiting for you to address her.
History
Zola, was born in Milan, one of a long lineage of faerie blooded architects, engineers and artists. Her blessed creative bloodline was a gift from the fey for services rendered by her ancestors centuries ago, and has produced some of the greatest works in the Mediterranean. Her family runs a school in a decadent compound in Milan training gifted and mundane individuals in the academic and practical aspects of their craft.
Possessing the family gift, Zola was trained in the most unfeminine field of architecture, and her magical training was skewed to develop her natural affinity for earth. She completed several projects in Milan, finding it easiest to work as a man, to enquire after her work, ask for Zanebono. She expects that her works in Toulouse will make her famous.
Since arriving at the covenant in summer 1220, Zola has tried to make herself useful while establishing how things work when magi that aren't from the same family congregate. She has remodelled the interior of the upper building, defeated the West Wind, charmed the faerie king and his enchanted door and negotiated for the exchange of a piece of the covenants fountain stolen by the king.
Current activities
Zola is currently conducting a geological survey of the covenants holdings, to discover building supplies and possible sources of metal.

Personality
