She grew up in the Righteous Principality of Colomb, a remote part of the Erabian empire. Her parents, low-level diplomats in the Royal Department of State Affairs, were called back to the Erabian capital to answer for crimes they did not commit. At the age of 11, Ayesha’s parents were incarcerated and Ayesha was put in a state facility for children without parents. There, she suffered abuse at the hands of her keepers. By 16, she escaped and created a new life for herself, including a new identity. She went to journalism school in the Palestinian Principality of Erabia and graduated at the top of her class. Because of her work as an investigative journalist, she is currently on the Royal Intelligence Agency’s watchlist for subversive activities. She is recently estranged from her longtime girlfriend, Princess Salen Tumeron, a distant cousin of the King.
