Sayd is a fictional character in the DC Comics universe. She is now an exiled member of the Guardians of the Universe. Where most of the Guardians are void of emotion and rigid in their compliance to standard policy, Sayd's sensibilities are more in line with those of Ganthet, a Guardian known for his non-traditional mindset. The two are exiled (in part) for their love for one another.
In Green Lantern #150 Kyle Rayner (as Ion) relights the Central Power Battery on Oa and restores the dead Guardians to life. However they were restored as children in a mix of male and female instead of adult males (their original forms). Sayd was one of the reborn members of the Guardians of the Universe, and one of the six female (out of twelve total) members of the organization.
In Green Lantern #24, Sayd reads a forbidden chapter from the Book of Oa, which foretells of a prophecy of cosmic revelations: "The Blackest Night". When the threat of the Sinestro Corps endangers the entire multiverse, Sayd addresses the incident to her colleagues as a sign from "The Blackest Night". The other Guardians dismiss her concerns and ignore the prophecy, assuming it to be folklore and an attempt by their enemies, the 5 Inversions, to spread fear amongst them. During the war, she and Ganthet oppose the other Guardians' stance on the prophecy and attempt to stop them from burning the pages from the Book of Oa, though they are unsuccessful. Near the end of the war, they are banished from the Guardian Council for "acting on emotion" (an accusation which includes the two apparently being in love with one another). She and Ganthet later appear on Earth to trap Parallax inside the four Earth-based Lanterns' power batteries, after which Ganthet offers Kyle Rayner his old power ring back (after being freed of the fear entity and no longer serving as Ion). They both claim that as they are no longer Guardians, they cannot help defeat the Sinestro Corps, but will attempt to help how they can, to which Guy Gardner responds "Guardians bein' mysterious and ambiguous -- There's something new."
