'''Relu-na''' is a [[Tai-na]] in the [[Reshi Sea]] on [[Roshar]]. A [[greatshell]] the size of an island, she is worshiped as a god by her inhabitants.
Upon reaching Relu-na's head, Rysn attempted to trade with the natives. Unbeknownst to Rysn, Vstim had actually trained the king's son, [[Talik]], and had covertly arranged for him to be tough on Rysn as a training exercise. However, Rysn became so frustrated by the negotiation that she made a bold attempt to gain the trust of the natives. She climbed down a rope suspended hundreds of feet over the ocean and attempted to address Relu-na directly, but fell when the rope snapped.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} She survived the fall, and Vstim later told her that the island's spren somehow saved her life.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} Rysn says she was trying to gain respect after Vstim and Talik repeatedly insisted that Relu-na placed a great deal of value on boldness; after her bold yet reckless act, the island somehow gifted her a living larkin.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}}
When Rysn wrote to Talik regarding her worries about condition of [[Chiri-Chiri]]'s health, Talik and his king were in [[Azimir]]. Talik wrote to the inhabitants of the island, and the king's consort approached Relu-na, who said that Chiri-Chiri needed be taken home to [[Akinah]].{{book ref|sa3.5|2}}
