Eraia

Eraia was a young woman from the Arathian island of Vaire. She operated a mildly successful grocery stand for several years on the outer rim of the city of Vyr before her untimely death after the appearance of Ghaodor in 2662.

Early life and years before Ghaodor
Eraia was born in the year 2639 in the city of Vyr, and lived there for twenty-three years until her death. At one point, due to her father's position as an Arathian diplomat, she visited the wastes of Icar, where she came into contact with a lyra called Lytor.

She first met Asha in 2658, and offered her a living space above her grocery stand on the outer rim of Vyr. Over the next four years, the two would develop a romantic attraction towards each other.

Appearance of Ghaodor
Eraia was present on Vyr during the Riftcallers' release and subsequent appearance of the horror Ghaodor. After she and Asha survived its initial appearance, they assisted each other in fleeing to a cavern in the forested area behind Vyr. During their first night, however, Eraia's sleep disorder proved to be instrumental in her demise, as when Ghaodor passed over the cavern she glimpsed its form and was driven to insanity. Hours later, she woke Asha in a panic, fearing for her life, and died soon after.

Appearance and personality
At the time of her death, Eraia was twenty-three years old, and had red hair.

She was relatively quiet and reserved, and was afflicted by constant anxiety. This was possibly connected to her perpetual insomnia, which caused her to be tired and occasionally distant.
