As I remember her, Alyra was a quiet, studious young woman with more anger in her eyes than anyone else I'd ever met. She reminded me of myself "when I was her age" (those were the words I heard Ellanna thinking). Certain dreams make me think that I actually knew her "sire" before I ever met her. So far as I can tell, before being brought to The Order, she was fairly prominent as a speaker in both anthropological and occult circles, and went by a name other than Alyra. She wrote a widely published book, entitled something like "Greca Roma", on the religious practices of Ancient Greeks and Romans and their resurrection into modern society, that Ellanna had read, and was very impressed by. Later recollections of Alyra seem to indicate that after escaping The Order, she met up with Ellanna in the U.S. These memories seem to take place in the late 80's, if not the nineties. Very strange, if you consider that I was born in 1979.
Visions of her future and past incarnations
lead me to believe that I have known her for quite some time, and even
in this lifetime, we tend to lead parallel
lives.
