Born behind lacquered screens and gilded lies, Nyoko Ito is the product of an arranged marriage between a reclusive Moonkeeper enchantress and a Sunseeker desert trader turned Kugane smuggler. Her father brokered forbidden trade routes through Hingashi’s underbelly: moving relics, voidtouched artifacts, and secrets…and her mother was his most valuable acquisition.Nyoko was raised in luxury, but never in peace. Her parents' union was a cold transaction. Her mother vanished when Nyoko was a child, her name struck from every record. Her father called it grief. The servants called it sacrifice.Shipped off to Trinarts, an elite and obscure magical academy on the edge of Sharlayan, Nyoko was expected to become a refined diplomatic tool. Instead, she became a liability. A genius. A rulebreaker. She climbed walls, stole spells, broke pacts, before vanishing… with something the Academy still wants back.Now, Nyoko lives a double life: elegant and poised when she needs to be, wild and reckless when no one's watching. Under cloaks and false names, she runs scams, steals relics, and dips into arcane magic, addicted to the rush of doing what she shouldn’t. She’s clever enough to get away with it — until she isn’t.
