'''Rysn''' is a young woman from [[Thaylenah]] on [[Roshar]]. She currently works in the [[Thaylen Gemstone Reserve]], managing Queen [[Fen]]'s personal finances. Previously she was an an apprentice merchant under her
== Appearance and Personality ==
Rysn has the long, white eyebrows typical to the Thaylen that she tucks behind her ears. She wears a glove on her [[safehand]] although she finds the practice of covering safehands a silly tradition resulting from [[Vorin]] cultural dominance. She usually prefers to wear vests over long-sleeved shirts and ankle-length skirts.{{book ref|

Five months into her apprenticeship to Vstim, Rysn went to [[Shinovar]] with her
Despite what Rysn thought, the goods they bought from the Shin proved to be very profitable. This caused Rysn to name her pot of grass ''Tyvnk'', meaning "sullen", because she refused to be sullen at being so overtly wrong while Vstim was right so she let her grass be so. They eventually made their way to the [[Reshi Sea]] with a caravan of sixteen longboats laden with people and goods purchased cheaply in lands rimming the [[Purelake]], guided by a Purelaker named [[Gu]]. Rysn acted as the trademaster because of Vstim's sickness.{{book ref|wor|i|2}}▼

Rysn was astonished to find out the "islands" that the [[Reshi]] lived on were the backs of [[greatshell]]s called [[Tai-na]], much to the amusement of her companions. Like in Shinovar, she found the locals to be primitives and were dismissive of them. Once they landed, Vstim told her that she would have to trade with the Reshi because his weakness would ruin the deal and to be bold while dealing with the Reshi for they would appreciate that. While Rysn, along with [[Kylrm]] and [[Nlent]], was making her way to the meeting the Reshi trademaster, she ran across people jumping from the top of the Tai'na to the sea. An [[Aimian]] named [[Axies the Collector]], who was hanging upside down and tied by his feet to a shell nearby as a punishment for asking the king about the soul of his god, informed her that the Reshi did this as a sign of courage. They continued climbing all the way to the ''Tai-na'''s head to be met by the King, who was a woman to Rysn's surprise, and her guards. A man named Talik stepped forward and asked Rysn why Vstim was not attending. Rysn informed him she was authorized to handle the trade but Talik told her the deal was off. Rysn continued trying to convince Talik to take the deal, but he would not back down. Rysn, thinking the only way to gain the Reshi's respect was to show her boldness, jumped down from the head of the Tai-na whose name Talik had told her was Relu-na. Falling down, for a split second she saw the eye of the Relu-na, then felt a rush of wind and crashed into the sea. She fell unconscious.▼

When she woke up, Vstim told her ''Relu-na'' had slowed her fall and saved her life. Rysn figured out that Talik was a former apprentice of Vstim, he wasn't as sick as he appeared to Rysn and he had set up the trade with the Reshi as a practice run for Rysn. Vstim told her she had both her legs shattered and he didn't know if she would walk again. He told her, however, that she would most definitely trade again and that the other Reshi islands would line up to trade with them. He told her they had come to the island to trade for the corpse of a
=== Thaylen Gemstone Reserve ===
Rysn was preparing for an important auditor to visit the [[Thaylen Gemstone Reserve]], where she now works after losing her legs in the Reshi Isles. It’s revealed that Vstim got her the job after she graduated from his tutelage. She felt embarrassed by the lack of her legs, and was of the opinion that her career and freedom were over, and she’d had to take down most of the relics of her travels from her office because they reminded her too much of what she’d lost. However, she still kept the Shin grass and looked after Chris-Chiri, the
