Rey (Voyage 2)

Rey, as Drawn by Academy\_\_

**Rey**, or Voyage Rey, is a Rey that serves as a protagonist in Voyage 2: The Reborn Star.

## Description

Rey is a human, though she does have pointed ears. Rey has a scar along her entire left side that she had gotten during the Better Together Dance. She has a metal leg from the thigh down on her left side. She also has a scar that is in the shape of a ring shape around her right leg from where her right leg was reattached. She wears a red purple and blue sweater and black shorts, along with some sneakers. Rey has short brown hair that goes down to below the nape of her neck. When she travels with Echo, she often carries a jar full of water to keep Echo safe in.

### Personality

Rey is a pessimist for the most part. Though she hasn't fully given up on her pacifistic ways, she definitely considers violence a lot sooner than she would have in the past. She doesn't wait for the good in people to shine through and has become cold, calculated and to the point. Never the less, she still tries to maintain a friendly attitude, a consequence of years in the customer service industry

## History

Rey was born in a small farmer's town (later to be revealed to be named LilCove) with her two parents, spending most of her time farming to help provide for her and her neighbors. Due to this, she never got a good education, though her mother did teach her how to read and write in cursive, although that meant she couldn't read or write in print. She had two close friends growing up: Niki and Rayne. Niki and Rey were practically inseparable throughout their entire childhood, though Rayne disappeared without a trace roughly four years before Chapter 0.

### The Famine

A famine hit the village one year prior to Chapter 0 of Voyage 2, which led to both her parents falling ill and dying. A few months prior to Chapter 0, Rey and Niki left the village to go up North as rumors of large nations were thriving up there, but during the journey, a blizzard stuck, and they had gone too far to turn back. The pair weren't too sure how happy their neighbors would be to see Rey return, as they often put blame on her and her family, along with other farmers, for the famine. They soon ran out of food, and while searching for more, Niki was attacked by a bear when Rey wasn't with her, and Niki froze to death while injured. When Rey found her, Niki had become a ghost who took Niki's place on the journey. Three days later, they finally arrived at their destination, Aetherial Kingdom (and more specifically, Thalassa), where they took her in and became part of the community.

### Chapter 0

During the events of chapter 0, Rey spent most of her time in her cave home, gathering materials and necessary documents to make a cafe in Thalassa as a way to keep herself and the ghostly Niki afloat. She also spent a short bit trying to practice magic where she learned how to make flowers grow, wilt and regrow by her command, though doing this too much can make her tired and give her a bit of a headache, and sometimes she loses control and plants will die or grow around her at random. Her original goal in mind was to bring Niki back to her but soon gave up after realizing her mission was hopeless as she was too weak to even attempt this, though she still uses her power for decorative uses and often grows medicinal herbs whenever she needs them. She was one of the numerous people who witnessed the portal Athena opened above what is present day Athena, Athenian Republic, and meeting Raf and Monique for the first time.

### The Misty Cafe

Rey has three Cafe locations, all under the same name and have the same menu:

Strong Coffee- $25

Coffee- $10

Sugar Brew- $5

Chocolate Brew- $5

Sugar Water- $5

Boiled Herbs- $5

Muddy Brew- $5

Milky Water- $5

Pumpkin Pie- $25

Cookie- $5

All the Misty Cafe signs are written in script as when she made them, it was the only way she knew how to read and write at the time. She does keep a menu written in print on some random paper after learning how to read and write print from Raf, keeping it on hand just in case someone can't read cursive, and if she loses the paper then she'll just read the menu to them.

### The Rift pt1

Though she didn't play a super helpful role in the Rift until much later, she was part of the original group that discovered it with Dan, and she tried to help where she could, though her help was mostly trying to calm Echo down or distract them from whatever Dan was doing. That mostly consisted of Rey slapping Lunarix, which she still isn't too proud of to this day. Later on, she did play a helping role with The Rift when Echo came into the picture.

### Babysitting

Rey is known generally for babysitting kids. She mostly babysits Echo, Hollow, Mug, and Oble who are a handful, to say the least. 13 takes Echo every so often, Hollow usually leaves whenever Echo isn't around, Mug kinda just does what Mug does best and just kinda pops in and pops out whenever, Oble's caretaker is officially Nephilim, and he usually takes care of him in The Abyss.

### The Rift pt2

During the Rift Crisis, Rey ran away from Lilac, who wanted to take Echo away from her, where she was quickly protected by Agent Mafu. Rey let Echo do their thing, where they managed to close the rift. Ending the crisis, and another stress producer gone.

### Prison Visit, Prison Break, and Aftermath

Rey visited Baja in his prison. She mostly went because Scorp wanted to know a thing or two about Baja and his safety in the prison, she wanted to provide Scorp and herself with closure. Scorp the closure of knowing Baja was safe in the prison, and herself the closure of knowing if Baja ever felt bad for his actions. While talking to Baja, he pointed out her flaws, pointing out how she always focused on helping others before herself, even if they don't return the favor. Rey, who was caught off guard by this sudden deep delve into her life, quickly leaves and heads home, with a lot to consider. She tells Scorp abut the visit, giving random details she noticed around the prison in hopes of giving Scorp the closure they needed.

### The Misty Cafe Hostage Crisis

Rey was quickly taken hostage by Feath, as a bargaining tool to free Baja from Scorp, she refused, which caused Rey to lose her leg, and suffer burns after the place was set on fire. She was saved by Athenian Forces, who were outside in a standoff. She was quickly tended to, where Raf was able to heal back her left leg, but due to his drained energy, and charred right leg, it had to be Amputated. In the process of Raf's healing, her eye was able to be healed back, being able to see with both eyes yet again! Rey now has her prosthetic leg from Daniel and is no longer on a work break.

### Post Decayer

Rey spent the first following months after the Decayer Event almost entirely in her house. People saw her tend to her crops, but that was about it. After the first two or so months, she started to go on walks very late at night. She did this mostly to avoid people but also because she thought she might be able to see any of the dead ghosts still waiting to pass on. These night walks evolved into camping/ hiking/ hunting trips. She'd leave for about three days and come back with animal meats and hides to sell to the other people of the Marsh. Soon she finally opened a new café in The Free Arcadian Republic where she poured most of her time and focus into. finally, Rey expanded the Misty Cafe to Cerise, mostly just for the extra cash grab. The new cafe will open not too long after the one-year mark of the Decayer Event.
