Lyra Felise
Lyra Felise was a healer and the 97th Helundtu, one of the Four Great Mages, and Cat's key character in Maisraln. Lyra grew up in Llandyr, a small village in the Oppula Forest. As a child and teenager, she trained as a healer using both herbs and magic, and in 1617 KY she was elected as the Yundyerar (the title given to the Helundtu-in-Waiting) aged 16 in the Catchensl, an ancient ritual where herbs were scattered across her hand and formed themselves into a ring to indicate that she was the rightful Yundyerar.
Three years later, the incumbent Helundtu died suddenly alongside the other Four Great Mages, and Lyra learnt from the Ashen Darkside that she was now the Helundtu and that he was now the Bynmidelle. She then travelled with Ash to meet their other new comrades, Elvar Murchaidh and Gawyn Harowcal.
