From a young age, Lyra learned to survive in weightless voids, to read the shimmer of distant realms, and to treat the stars as both map and warning. > Everything changed the day she uncovered a strange **hammer-pick** embedded in an asteroid’s heart. The moment her hand closed around its haft, the world fell silent — and something ancient answered. A presence vast and distant stirred beyond the Astral veil, and a pact was sealed not in words, but in sensation: pressure, light, and the feeling of being **noticed**. > Lyra survived. But she did not return the same. > The tool became her focus, her weapon, and her chain. Power bled into her blood, reshaping her magic and binding her to a patron she did not yet understand. Fearing what she had become — and what might now be watching her — Lyra eventually left her family behind, drawn back toward the material planes in search of answers, distance, and control. > It was on that road that she crossed paths with **Sordia Vignti**. > And whatever answered her in the Astral Sea has been listening ever since.
