===A Slave in the Fighting Pits===
Trihn's corpse was discovered by [[Shakto]] in the grave-heap of deceased fighters that lay below the [[Tangled Shore]]'s fighting pits, which were run by [[Driksys]], a lieutenant of [[The Spider]]. Trihn attempted to fight her way free but was killed multiple times before being subdued.

As they closed in on the crew, Shakto suggested they try to avoid a fight and noted that hitting Driksys directly before they were prepared could draw the attention of [[Avrok, Spider's Associate|Avrok]], a higher ranking associate, or even the Spider.

Biography[edit]

A Slave in the Fighting Pits[edit]

Trihn's corpse was discovered by Shakto in the grave-heap of deceased fighters that lay below the Tangled Shore's fighting pits, which were run by Driksys, a lieutenant of The Spider. Trihn attempted to fight her way free but was killed multiple times before being subdued. She was fed ether by the Eliksni to be compliant and forced to fight in the pits as a special attraction, although Trihn soon learned that Driksys and the other fighting pit bosses were hiding her existence from the Spider to pocket the profits they made off of her. She lost many of her first bouts but soon learned to fight and win bouts,[1] with additional ether being provided as a reward.[2] Eventually the fighting pit managers grew worried they would be exposed to Spider due to the growing myths about the Lightbearer pit fighter and attempted to contain her and trap Shakto. In doing so Trihn was able to touch the Void and free her mind. She and Shakto escaped from the fighting pit out onto the Shore, where she vowed to have her revenge by dismantling all of Driksys' operation.[1]

Hunting Driksys[edit]

"We'll keep doing this until he has no subordinates. He'll be forced to deal with us eventually."
— Trihn, after eliminating another of Driksys' lieutenants

Over the next several months Trihn gathered supplies and learned about the Spider's organization, often taking risks that Shakto advised against.[3] She sustained herself on ether scavenged from dead Eliksni and associates of Driksys she hunted down and killed. She eventually traced Driksys beyond the boarders of the Tangled Shore to the unclaimed no-mans land that separated it from the Reef's territory thanks to a tip from a fellow fighter from the pit. Two days into their pursuit, they were scavenging from a set of dead Dregs when Shakto picked up a proximity beacon from a set of trip lines they had set up. Examining a projection of the data on her tactical hologram, Trihn guessed they were moving fast on Pikes and ordered Shakto to prepare her own Pike in hopes of catching up by days end. Shakto warned they did not know what had passed through the lines, suggesting it could also be Scorn, but Trihn noted Scorn did not come out that far and that such a small group had to a crew of the Spider.[1]

As they closed in on the crew, Shakto suggested they try to avoid a fight and noted that hitting Driksys directly before they were prepared could draw the attention of Avrok, a higher ranking associate, or even the Spider. Her Ghost also pointed out that Spider's crews did not carry a lot of ether or other supplies, but Trihn stated that any hurt they put onto Driksys' crews would hurt him and impact the loyalty of his followers. She parked her Pike on a ridge overlooking a gully where the crew had stopped.

Shakto cautioned that it was not necessarily Driksys and that if Spider learned she was killing his lieutenants he might send his enforcer after them and that she would not be ready for that kind of fight. Trihn agreed to wait and see which associate was present before making a move against them.[3]

After a night of watching the camp the two spotted a wounded Captain dragging itself across the ground. Trihn was both disappointed and relieved that it was not Driksys, but noticed his red quills and recognized him as one of Driksys' men.

A Name From Beyond[edit]

"Do you remember the name?"
"Something is coming here. I don't."
"Xivu Arath.
"
— Shakto questioning Trihn about the name she heard from the Cryptolith

Trihn approached the structure over Shakto's warnings and touched it. It came alive under her touch and said it was the "answer". Over the course of the day she repeatedly return to it to force more information from it with her mind, and eventually it promised to make her stronger. It showed her images of her past and the betrayals she had suffered before showing her vengeance being sated an Driksys' head upon a spike.

Her body was weakened by the ether injections, including several fractures in her hands. However, each trip left gaps in her knowledge that left her wanting to go back in for more information.[5]
