Overview
Lyssara is a mage of the Xalmyrran Council in Irrathis. She serves during Aldar's tenure and takes part in council decisions about Eira, the spiral mark, the shard, the Land of Darkness, Aurion's politics in Soltheris, and the tournament of champions meant to gather Xalmyrra's strongest mages.
Council Work
Lyssara recruits new initiates and assesses promising young mages. She questions Aldar's secrecy around Eira, argues that Eira deserves to know more about the burden placed on her, and tries to prepare Eira for the dangerous mission to the Land of Darkness and the Temple of no Return. She is wary of drawing the council too deeply into politics. Aldar assigns her to take over Brynor's mission when Brynor is sent to deal with Aurion.
Magic and Death
Lyssara has violet eyes, moves quietly, and wears robes with charms. During the cataclysm in Irrathis, she uses spectral constructs to lift debris and shield children and young initiates. A falling black spike impales her, causing her constructs to vanish. After Lyssara's death, Brynor promises to preserve her memory.
