History
Ten years after the Time of Troubles, Leira was slain by Cyric, using the sword Godsbane (actually the god Mask in disguise). Cyric then went on to subsume Leira's portfolio.
Some believe Leira is still alive and that she uses her death as a grand illusion, but the general consensus is that she is a dead power.
