History
In a beautiful land known as Erdinoi, Kyra was born into a family of elemental witches. As the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, she showed affinity for most forms of magic though she tends to favor only three. Rumors had it that the powers bestowed upon her family came from an ancestor's union with some powerful being...some claimed a devil or demon, others claimed fey, some even considered a dragon. Kyra, herself, has little clue if this is all rumor or if it is based in truth.

She had a noble upbringing, privileged due to both power and wealth and educated not only magic, but diplomacy and herbalism. Her childhood was only marred by visions and dreams. Their meanings obsessed her, driving her to seek knowledge and their interpretations. Following her ancestral beliefs, she became a devout worshiper of the goddess in all her forms, the maiden, the Morrigan, the wise woman and the Dark Lady. Once she came of age, she was anointed as a priestess of the goddesses.

Her need for answers drove her to perform various rituals for knowledge. One such ritual misfired and pulled her through a portal into a plane known as Sigil...and into the lap of a male who she had only seen in her dreams. She took it as destiny or fate, believing this male was the one the goddess had chosen for her. This belief was only reaffirmed when both her and her mate were pulled out of the home they had created and into a new wild and chaotic realm.

When that chaotic realm was being consumed by a fey entity, Kyra with fellow Rose mages managed to highjack the fey portal, bringing them to the new realm of Vanwamire. Here the Roses carved out a new kingdom they named Ceva'esse. The peace would not last for long.

Vanwamire became the playground of demi-gods, intent on wiping the board clean. The combined powers of the witches, the mages and the druids were able to open a portal to new lands, but Amres and his Roses would make the choice to hold the line so that all could escape. Kyra stayed at her heartmate's side and the portal closed.

What happened then was a game that the Roses could not win, but they were amusing the demigods. They held the one sliver of land that was the druid's grove, withstanding the siege. But the fighting was long and brutal, causing Kyra to burn through the healing magics gifted to her by the goddess daily. Yet, she remained optimistic until the day the trickster of the demi-gods found a new game. A fey was sent, crying out for aid. Kyra answered and was captured. The trickster god was amused by her and wished to test what he had witnessed...watching as she would aid all of the other captives even as she harmed herself. Then came what he truly wished to see...her enraged mate fighting his way to get his witch-wife back.

The duel was staged. Kyra was dressed as a concubine and paraded before her mate even though the trickster god had never touched her. And then, she was forced to watch Amres duel the demigod. The trickster, to his credit, began fighting as a mortal would, only calling upon his powers when he saw that Amres was after his head, his balls and his heart. But even then, Amres' bravery was making an impression. By the end of the fight, Amres had been sliced to ribbons and the Trickster was wounded and hurting. Kyra had run to heal her mate, pouring out enough energy that her body finally just collapsed. It was enough to move even the trickster's jaded heart. The lovers found themselves back at the grove. But Kyra was unconscious and unresponsive.

As Amres called upon the goddess, Kyra was lost in the in-between and the goddess made her an offer. She was returned to Amres' side, but changed. The fey blood was fully awakened, but her divine healing gifts were forfeit. And it was then that Aranlyn and Jessa pulled those who survived through a portal into the lands of Lomar. Amres' uncle gave them the city he founded and charged them with keeping Crow's Rest so that he could return to his wanderings.
