Biography
Born dockside in Vesper Quay, Scillia ran messages for the Silver Ledger before managing its pier tariffs. A near-war with the Gutter Syndic pushed her into field work. She brokered the Lantern Truce after a failed ambush near the Slickstone Arches, trading seized manifests for safe passage. Later, she coordinated a covert audit inside the Counting House, unseating a skimming clerk and redirecting funds to dock repairs. Her circle widened after a disputed salvage at Breaker’s Shelf, where she leveraged a split claim into joint security for the harbor nights.
