Dia is a sweet, antisocial young girl who has had many bad experiences in life. She tends to avoid contact with others if she can and may seem like a little bit of a loner. She fears and severely distrusts any form of government and has major trust issues. This doesn't stop her, however, from attempting to help everyone she can. She attempts to hide her emotions to try not to get attached to/close to people. She is good at protecting and helping others, farming, hiding in plain sight, decorating, and doing stuff she shouldn't be doing. She likes gardening and farming, helping others, the colors purple and blue, and going for long walks. She doesn't like the concept of war and people hurting each other, the colors orange, yellow, and green, mining, and building.

## Diathana and the story of the town of Arakiley

Though she was born and raised here for a short period, Dia has no recollection of her hometown. The only things she knows about it are the things she's read and been told. And that's just the basics. Arakiley, a small village on the bank of a large river, is a small village with a comfortable climate, ignoring the occasional storms that they learned to adapt to, that thrives on the water. or at least they did. Around the time Dia was born, a large war broke out between them and a neighboring city. There was constant pain and suffering in the town and that isn't what her parents wanted for her. so they sent her away down the river in hopes that someone would find her and take care of her. The town itself was eventually conquered and now lies in ruins.

## Dia and her parents

### Blythe and Kiasax

When Dia was born, the war in Arakiley was already almost at its climax. Blythe and Kiasax, her biological parents, a few months after she was born decided that she wouldn't be safe if she stayed in the village. So with heavy hearts, they decided to send her down the river in hopes that she would be safe from the raids. The next night, they placed a protection charm with her name engraved on it around her wrist before wrapping her in a small blanket, placing her in a woven basket, and putting a short note beside her. Blythe and Kiasax both wept as they thought about losing their daughter. But they knew it had to be done. So with tears streaking down their faces, Blythe and Kiasax placed one last kiss on her forehead before sending her down the river to protect her. As the current took her around the bend, Dia heard two cries of pain and then nothing but the rushing of the water underneath her.

#### The lives of Blythe and Kiasax

The love story of Blyth and Kiasax was the stereotypical story of a royal falling for a peasant. But it worked for them so who are we to judge?

When Blythe was young she always dreamed of romance and marriage. She was told she couldn't have it, however, because she was royalty and they had already chosen a "perfect" husband for her. She learned of this when they made her meet him on her tenth birthday. She was not having it. The day before her eighteenth birthday (they had scheduled the wedding for her eighteenth birthday), She ran to a faraway village where she met Kiasax.

Kiasax was a young peasant boy who was raised in Aquarian city. He was born to a set of magicks users (a witch and a warlock) during a time in which witchcraft was a hangable offense. His coven was planning (had been planning for many, many years by the time he was born) to overthrow the monarchy and put in place a government that was ok with magicks. it didn't work out. When they finally tried, his parents were killed in front of his own two eyes as punishment for his crimes. The kingdom placed him in an assimilation camp on the outer border of the kingdom until he was 18 where they made him take an oath to never practice magicks again. This didn't last long however because he ran from the kingdom and into the town of Arakiley (a border village on the outside of the bordering kingdom) and continued practicing and honing his magick in hopes that one day he would be able to take revenge for his parents.

Then on an evening stroll to go gather some stuff for a spell, he ran into Blythe on one of her nightly walks and it was love at first sight. They dated for 5 years before he finally proposed and they got married the next spring. Blythe and Kiasax were married five years before they conceived Dia. They had been wanting a child for years and were told they couldn't have one. So Blythe prayed and prayed for a child. When they found out they were pregnant with Dia, they were ecstatic. Until the war started then all hell broke loose.

### Guinevere Grey

After a few days, the basket washed up on the bank. As the son rose, a Beautiful witch by the name of Guinevere Grey found her laying there peacefully sleeping in the basket. She rushed to pick up the basket and make sure Diathana was ok. Guinevere raised Dia as her child for most of her life. until a huge war broke out. Their enemies despised witches so when they found out she was one, they broke into her house in the middle of the night. She woke up to yelling and screaming and ran to Dia's room where she told her to hide under the bed and wait for her to say it was safe. Before she could though, the enemies barged in and killed her as dia watched from under the bed.

## Everglow and her safehouses

After Guinevere was killed, Dia traveled throughout the land to find a place she could call home and hopefully a family and some friends, but to no avail. Everywhere she went disaster followed. She was either exiled from the new land or it was destroyed by a nasty war. After she turned 18, she went off on her own again and built her own safe haven so she never had to deal with wars, corrupt powers, or exile ever again.

Soon after she built her home, she realized that there were others like her, so she built more "safe houses" to protect others from the pain she had to go through. She now travels the world of Everglow building more safehouses for those that are in danger or that need a place to stay.

## Aadya and the art of staying hidden

Due to her helping runaways, she has gotten herself into trouble more than once. So to avoid being found or killed, when she goes into public most of the time she becomes her alter-ego, Aadya. Aadya is a very quiet and shy girl who stays hidden with the use of hair extensions, hair dye, colored contacts, and a change of clothes. she tries to avoid attention so that she can stay safe, but when she is addressed usually she will answer to be polite.
