Biography[]

Awakening[]

Lyra was born into poverty and became a skilled sharpshooter. She attended the War Gym at Cala City where she trained to join the House Guard of Duke Leto Atreides alongside her friends Taron and Eamon. They were antagonised by a group of cadets led by Aiden, who constantly insulted them. They were assigned to the Peak of Valor challenge, a two-day endurance test to plant their flag at the summit of Mount Syubi. As they neared the summit, Lyra fell to a ledge below and told Taron and Eamon to leave her behind, but they refused and rescued her. Aiden's group reached the summit first and planted their flag, but despite their loss Lyra and her friends felt pride in doing the right thing.

Lyra and Taron entered the lecture hall the day before their graduation to return a borrowed tome. They discovered a light on in the commandant's office, despite having just seen him on the green. Investigating, they found Aiden stealing the commandant's code book. They informed Eamon, who remembered his older brother telling him of an infiltrator from House Harkonnen in their class. Concluding that Aiden was the infiltrator, they informed the commandant, who had Aiden and his group arrested for espionage and treason during the graduation ceremony. As it was wartime, the commandant invoked kanly and killed Aiden and his group be slashing their throats. He then commended the graduates, declaring them the future of House Atreides. Lyra, Taron and Eamon were then assigned to Arrakis.[1]
