Lyre
Elle s'est retirée avec une bouffée au baiser. Élevant sa main sur ses lèvres, elle les toucha doucement en les branchant sous ses doigts. Son premier baiser...
"Mon Seigneur... nous ne pouvons pas..." elle a protesté. "Je suis d'un sang bas, bien que d'origine Hyland. Nous sommes en réalité cousins. Ta famille... elle voulait... Ses mots ont été coupés quand quelqu'un est entré dans la tente. Lyra a pleurniché comme un chiot blessé quand elle a réalisé qui c'était. "Le seigneur Emerin!" Elle a étouffé, tombant à l'envers sur son fond dans un effort pour s'éloigner. "Je n'ai pas... Je veux dire... Je... Je...
Panic menaçait de lui couper la vie. Lady Julia venait! Et un des seigneurs l'avait vue et Trystan s'embrasser! "Elle va me tuer!" Lyra gémit dans la peur, couvrant son visage et essayant de se cacher à côté d'une table. -- Ne lui dites pas, s'il vous plaît! Elle a supplié, regardant d'émeriner Emerin. "Je vous en prie, Seigneur Emerin! Je ferai tout ce que tu voudras, s'il te plaît... ne lui dis pas! Ne la laissez pas me tuer, ou pire me jeter dehors! Je mourrai si je dois devenir comme ma mère! S'il te plaît!"
Lyra babillait dans des sanglots gémissants, tremblant dans la peur. Si Lord Emerin ne voulait pas garder ce secret Lyra était sur son chemin pour devenir une pute commune pour survivre, si elle a survécu du tout.
Dans sa peur, elle ne s'est pas rendu compte qu'elle allait vers Trystan, son esprit se tournant inconsciemment vers lui pour sa protection.

◾ Biography:
Lyra was born in the village outside of the Hyland Keep. Her mother was a bastard daughter of the Hyland family but was never claimed by the Lord of that time. She met and lay with a visitor from the Vaernin Forest, who left soon after learning of Enya's pregnancy. She cried bitter tears of disappointment when she birthed a girl. Lyra was a constant reminder of her failure to have a son, although she tried with every male she came across. Lyra grew up living in what essentially was a whorehouse, until the night of the incident....
After that Lyra ran away and into the Hyland Keep to get away from the life her mother had made. At 15 she was hired to feed the swine and has worked her way up since then. After several years of hard work she has made it past the kitchens and into the entourage of personal servants that tend to the lords and ladies of the Hyland family, but she restricted mainly to serving food and drinks or fetching things for them.
Whatever money she manages to get she sends to her mother under the condition that the woman stay out of her life.
Lyra never had what you would call a 'love life' but she notices the handsome young men about the keep. One such young man who was steward to the current lord was attempting to teach her how to read, but passed away from illness before she made much progress. She wants to learn to read so she can learn about far off places and imagine a life there for herself that is far different from the one she currently lives.
Lyra longs for new things but at the same time is too afraid to leave what she knows, afraid she will end up like her mother selling her backside for food.
She likes working in the keep serving the Hyland family, but at times feels quite jealous of them. Especially the ladies of the house, being so beautiful and everything coming easy for them. But she does look forward to the day that they marry and have babies so Lyra might be able to look after them.
