Who is Taleyra?
Taleyra grew up in Wrenhollow, a small lighthouse village by the sea, where her grandmother told a new legend every night. When she was twelve she found an old brass lantern in her grandmother's attic. She has carried it on every journey since.
She studied folklore and mapmaking at the Lanternhall Academy of Travelling Storytellers. Now she travels the world to find its legends where they began, and to tell them the way they deserve to be told.
