Lera Epar had been a T'lan Imass Bonecaster of the Brold. Her name meant Bitterspring. She had once been beautiful and when desired by men already in a relationship, the fact that another was discarded for her had made the match more attractive to her. She had been regarded as a formidable seer although she herself thought that her ability to read the future of her kin had more to do with her ability to understand human nature. She had been hated and she had been worshipped and she thought that she was murdered in the end. She had been one of the three Brold Bonecasters who performed the second Ritual of Tellann.
