Maresha Bayhe
The venerable Matriarch of Bayhe Merchant House—a woman with silver hair coiled atop her head like a crown—formally relinquished leadership of her ancient house upon her seventieth nameday, though her whispered counsel still sways the marble halls of the The Erudite Triad.
Her eyes crinkle at the corners when she smiles, which is often, and her delicate hands are perpetually dusted with the aromatic residue from the embroidered velvet pouch she keeps fastened at her waist—a treasure trove of dried moonflowers, powdered dragon bone, and tinctures in tiny crystal vials that she administers with absolute conviction in their efficacy.
