Vetra Lornis
Vetra Lornis is the devoted caretaker of The Commons in The Shales. She is a botanist and glyphwright whose work blends the natural with the arcane. By day, Vetra tends the luminous trees, etching protective glyphs into their bark and feeding their roots with alchemical salves to maintain their spectral radiance. By night, she walks the softly glowing pathways, her lantern casting shadows that flicker with spectral energy, ensuring the grove remains in balance.
The transformation of The Commons from an industrial dumping ground into a shared haven has defined Vetra’s life. She believes the glowing trees and green spaces are more than just a symbol of renewal; they are a living covenant between the artisans, mystics, and scavengers of The Shales. Her careful work ensures the grove’s equilibrium, not just as a sanctuary, but as a stabilizing force in the fractious energies that sometimes permeate the Hold. Vetra has an almost reverent connection to her work, speaking softly to the trees as though they can hear her.
She is often found guiding newcomers through The Commons, sharing its history and calming disputes. Her quiet presence makes her an anchor in a place where the industrial and arcane intertwine.
