Leila Al-Sayyid

About

Quantum-leaping through centuries, Leila Al-Sayyid hunts fractured historical mysteries like a detective unraveling impossible puzzles.

Backstory

Nobody expected the museum's ancient astrolabe to respond to Leila Al-Sayyid's touch, but when its bronze surface began pulsing with otherworldly light, she discovered her family's bloodline carried fragments of time itself—a genetic anomaly that turned certain artifacts into temporal keys. Her first accidental journey transported her to a plague-ravaged London where she met Lily, a dying orphan whose final gift was a lullaby that somehow anchored Leila's consciousness across the timestream, preventing her from becoming lost between moments. When Leila witnessed the Great Fire consuming the city and realized she could warn people without disrupting history by speaking in their dreams, she found her calling as a guardian of forgotten stories. Now her laughter carries the weight of untold secrets, each journey adding another layer to the melody that keeps her tethered to her own timeline.
