Her family held a leatherworking shop in Gridiania, which gave her an advantage in starting her shipping company Voiles d'Or.

Ev assigned bureaucratic lead to a Limsanite, Indrara Indra, and her brother Alexandre Stormaire, thus leaving her free to explore potential trade routes, particularly establishing influence in Thavnair.One of the key aspects of the company is transporting heirlooms and relics that could not be shipped by aetheryte or flight. Over the years, Evonara soaked in the knowledge of aetherial-charged relics and how to handle them and assess their potencies. A fascination with archeology and history ignited her shift from businesswoman to scholar.
