Polyam (pronounced POHL-yam) is a member of Tenth Caravan Idaram and daughter of gilav Chandrisa, the caravan's leader. By 1039 KF Polyam was badly scarred and the caravan's wirok. As such she was a despised person and only got her fellow Traders' leavings and scorn. Daja Kisubo and her friends met her when both the caravan and Duke Vedris' company were staying in Gold Ridge.
