Lief, Barda, and Jasmine were brought before Tirral when they arrived on the island of Keras. She welcomed them cautiously, but happily, because of her Deltoran ancestry and because they had brought her tribe a boat full of leeches from the Forbidden Way. She gave Lief the endpiece of the Pirran Pipe in exchange for the replica of the Belt of Deltora. Although Tirral did not know that the belt was a fake, she accurately felt that there was no power in it. Tirral claimed the trade was unfair, but she knew she could not go back on her word.
