| abstract | - Aderes lived in Tristram. She married a tanner and had a son with him named Deckard. Despite Deckard's wishes to the contrary, she insisted that he take the name of Cain, rather than his father's surname. In her later years, she would tell the children of the village tales of the deeds of the Horadrim, in their quest to imprison the Prime Evils. She would tell the same stories more than once, and they became more extravagant each time. In 1213, events came to ahead as sickness took her husband. By this stage, Deckard had lost interest in his mother's stories, believing them to have no basis in reality despite her insistence to the contrary. It was only made worse when Deckard discovered that his mother had burnt his history books, Aderes insisting that his "proper reading" was with the texts written by his ancestor. It was the straw that broke Deckard's back, and Aderes's too, as she declared her son lost.
