Halia Anchortide
the Pearl-Seal Siren
Named for the sea that holds (Halia) and the tide that grinds (Anchortide), and the pearl that forms in the pressure between.
Power
Pearlhold — you can bind a single thread of a person's fate to a pearl, but only if that person's name is salt-stung from your own tongue, and you lose the taste of fresh water until the pearl is broken.

- Tide
- the Anchor's Rest Tide
The Spire of the First Current, where the water is so cold it forgets to move. It asked you to leave your voice in its hollows, and you did, but the sea gave you back a different one — one that tastes of lithium and old stone.
