L'yhta learned quite late (around 18 or so), after she ran away to Limsa Lominsa. She was taught her letters by her master; in order to study and research magic and aethereal manipulation on a professional level, she had to be able to read and write. Learning this late could cause difficulties, but the training regimen was quite aggressive, she's quite intelligent, and she's always loved both stories and solving puzzles.
EDIT: Funny enough, only the two characters I have who are tied to the Wizards' Choir (L'yhta and her master's previous apprentice, Cieranaux Aramont) are literate. My other alts, rarely played as they may be, are illiterate; they know that "those squiggly symbols" might mean "don't go in here" and "these squiggly symbols are your mark," but any real literacy is outside their expertise.
