Known facts
- armorer-and-ledger-keeperRuns the Urithiru Windrunner quartermaster's office: armorer first, ledger-keeper for love of the books, ferociously good at packing a ruck. Liked by Syl from his early days improvising plate from carapace and bone.SA:WaT:Ch 8
- killed-by-moash-with-anti-light-knifeCaught with his squires inside a suppressor field on a north-side plateau of Narak, Leyten grapples Moash to buy Sigzil's rescue an extra second and takes a warping anti-Stormlight knife through the chest — dying with his honorspren Ethenia in the same heartbeat. His final breaths are spoken as a Death Rattle naming *the Scholar with a Spear,* Vienta's death, and his own murder *by the hands of a friend.*SA:WaT:Ch 81
- killed-defending-shattered-plains-wallLopen returns to the wall with the Herdazian force and the first words exchanged with Sigzil are about Leyten — confirming that the Bridge Four armourer was among the dead in the running defence of the Shattered Plains.SA:WaT:Ch 103
