Salla Welsh

"Why do you think she’s crying, Kyle? Maybe it’s because you’re a lousy father, Merlin knows that. Because you’re a shill Sentinel—"

- Salla to her husband

Introduction
Salla Welsh is a resident of Atlantis and the former wife of Kyle Welsh until being widowed due to his death at the abandoned school.

Pre-ASFS
At some point, Salla met and fell in love with Kyle Welsh. The two were married and they soon became pregnant with their first son, Damon. Soon, however, their relationship began to fall apart. Following the miscarriage of their second son, Ashton, the two had begun to loathe each other and Salla began cheating on him with a younger man. However, their marriage persisted long enough for her to become pregnant with a daughter.

ASFS
Salla's only appearance is through a flashback, in which Salla argues with Welsh and accuses him of destroying their relationship.

Kyle Welsh
Salla and Kyle were apparently in love prior to their appearances in the novel. Enough so that they had three children together. However, it soon broke down and led to Salla cheating on Kyle with a 'twenty-five-year-old kid' and Kyle falling in love with Sentinel Marsh.

Trivia
