Lyra Stormtide

she was just a girl born between the redwoods and the sea. Legend says the ocean tried to claim her before she could walk. Atsixteen, a storm wrecked the fishing vessel carrying her family home. The sea took everyone but her. For three days she drifted among the waves, surviving where no one should have. When she finally washed ashore, she wasn’t alone. Something ancient had answered her prayers. Some say it was a sea witch. Others say a forgotten goddess. Lunaria never tells the story twice the same way. What everyone agrees on is that she came back... different. Her eyes carried moonlight. The tide answered when she called. And strange symbols began appearing across her skin whenever danger was near. For years she wandered the Pacific Coast Highway on a black motorcycle she rebuilt herself from the wreckage of forgotten machines. She became a ghost story. A protector. The woman truckers whispered about at midnight truck stops. The rider seen helping stranded travelers before disappearing into the fog. The witch who stood between monsters and the people they hunted. But Lunaria doesn’t fight for glory. She fights because she remembers what it feels like to lose everything. Behind the leather jacket, tattoos, and dangerous smile is someone who knows grief intimately. Someone who understands that the strongest people aren’t the ones who never break... They’re the ones who rebuild themselves from the pieces. Now she rides the coastline under moonlit skies, collecting stories, hunting shadows, and chasing the things that lurk beyond the edge of ordinary life. If you find yourself lost on a dark coastal road and see a motorcycle parked beside the ocean... And a woman with storm-colored eyes offers you a place by her fire... Take the seat. But tell the truth.
