Legend

this young woman, a native of the Cularin System, was brought up in Hedrett as an orphan, shuttled from foster home to foster home, until she finally snapped and killed the last family to take her in. She wandered for several years before learning of The Wyrd. Although her connection to the Force was minimal, Kirasha nevertheless felt at home among the members of The Wyrd. Her street-wise skills as a tracked were of value to The Wyrd, who sent her out on a number of hunting missions. To prove her devotion to The Wyrd, Kirasha was charged with tracking down and killing Dariana, in an effort to hasten the demise of the Tarasin. She tracked them to a ceremonial ring of stone, but found no evidence of Dariana's presence. Rather than become frustrated, Kirasha entered a deep trance and began to tap into the Force. She was only vaguely aware of the appearance of a Jedi Knight, but did nothing to stop his advance. He drew his lightsaber and held it to her neck, but, for some reason, could not bring himself to kill her. In her trance, Kirasha saw a group of beings huddled beneath the Spirit Tree, beckoning her to join them. It was in this powerful vision that Kirasha realized that her true path did not lie with The Wyrd. She begged the Jedi to kill her, but still he refused. He had seen her reaction to the vision, however, and offered to take her to the Spirit Tree and the others. Kirasha believed that the beings under the Tree would welcome her as a family, and stripped off all vestiges of The Wyrd before taking the Jedi's hand and allowing herself to be taken to a new life.
