Kalyra, a child who never knew peace.
Her story began when she was just seven years old.
She hailed from a clan called Veilshadow. They are humans with a natural affinity for shadows. They excel in sneaking around, every last one of them.
Naturally, they are shadows.
Kalyra was orphaned at birth. Her parents were never found or known; they never belonged to the Veilshadow bloodline from the start.
However, she had a family.
They took her in, and she lived a good life for seven years. However, on her seventh birthday, a great massacre happened in her clan when the clan chief's youngest son pissed off a prince from a powerful kingdom.
That day, Kalyra and her family were laughing and celebrating her birthday when the masked men came.
Perhaps due to how demented they were, when they entered Kalyra's home, the killers started laughing as they slaughtered everyone.
