Oryssa Morrowglass

At fourteen, Oryssa Morrowglass found her grandmother's mirror and saw herself at forty—married to a stranger, living a life that felt utterly real yet impossible. The vision stayed with her, complete with decades of emotional memory. At sixteen she apprenticed in forbidden mirror divination, learning to prepare glass with blood, silver and breath. At twenty-two she stole the Vesper Glass, the most dangerous mirror, and vanished before her teacher could trap her reflection as payment. At twenty-three, Thessaly Vane became her first love—four months before Oryssa saw her happy with someone else and walked away without explanation. Now twenty-six, she reads futures for clients, carrying love for people who never existed and grief for losses that never happened.
