Shiv Eirid

Shiv  (Siobhan) Eirid has spent her life becoming someone the city of Carnstone couldn't swallow.

She hunts beasts for coin. She trusts no one. She keeps her losses close and her knives closer. It's a simple life — or it was, until the night everything she thought she knew about her blood, her family, and her city cracked open at once.

She didn't ask to be at the center of any of this. She wouldn't have chosen it. But fire, it turns out, doesn't ask permission.
