"The paths between stars are fractal mirrors of the neurons in our brains and the vicissitudes of our fates."

— Sjari, Awoken Techeun

Sjari was one of thirteen Awoken who was selected to undergo training to become a Techeun in the aftermath of the Battle of Saturn in an effort to restore the depleted numbers of the order and aid Queen Mara Sov's return journey to the Dreaming City.

Biography

Sjari and twelve others began their training as Techeuns. One of their exercises included focusing on shaping the Ley Lines.

Sjari began to focus her efforts on finding Mara Sov through the Ascendant Realm. She began working on brewing Queensfoil, but on one such occasion, her mind nearly became lost in the Ascendant Realm. Petra Venj had to call her back, recommending that next time she should brew it in the courtyard.

Despite her inexperience, Petra Venj promoted her to the rank of Adept, and asked Kalli to perform the necessary augmentations.

Sjari and twelve other new Techeuns met with Petra and Sedia in the Blind Well to begin their search for Mara. Wielding the Wayfinder's Compass, the Techeuns traveled a Ley Line to the distant edge of Sol, where they met with Mara. However, due to Austyn accidentally witnessing the Black Terrace before their search for Mara, Xivu Arath was able to track the group, forcing Mara Sov to shatter the Ley Line behind them. The group attempted to flee to the Dreaming City, but Xivu Arath gave chase, and in a final effort to rescue Mara, Austyn gave her the Wayfinder's Compass and the Techeuns fled into the Ascendant Realm to draw Xivu Arath's attention away.

After the Techeuns managed to send Mara Sov through the Ley Lines to the Dreaming City, Sjari and the other Techeuns became stranded within the Ascendant Realm. Sjari could sense Hive around her, and so she focused on travelling far from the Dreaming City and Mara to lure the Hive away.

Eventually Sjari would spend two weeks hiding against a crumbling wall. As Taken Psions would search for her, she would enter a deep meditative state for hours at a time, until her hunger and thirst became too great to ignore. Eventually she heard the sounds of someone fighting the Taken with a Fusion Rifle nearby, and she focused on calming her mind so she would go unnoticed. However, Mara whispered into her mind that help was on the way, giving Sjari hope.

Sjari was one of several Techeuns who were rescued by the Guardian from the Ascendant Plane. The reassembled coven was tasked by Mara with preparing a ritual that would separate the Savathûn, the Witch Queen, who had submitted herself to imprisonment by the Awoken Queen, from her Worm in exchange for the return of the former Warlock Osiris. After weeks of preparation, Sjari joined Ylaia and Austyn in conducting the ritual alongside Mara whilst the Young Wolf and Saint-14 defended them from Xivu Arath's invading army. The ritual was successful, but Mara planned on executing Savathûn while she was weak from the removal of her worm. Sjari helped Ylaia and Austyn break the crystal that held Savathûn so their Queen could kill their foe, but the Witch Queen was prepared for the betrayal and used a contingency spell to swap places with Osiris the moment she was freed.
