### Origins: Benders

After surviving a brutal attack that left many slaughtered, including her very ill mother, Adina remained beside her husband, Solomon and her newborn son, Cain to help rebuild the Bhavana Tribe. 10 years later, another attack happened, this time one of the victims is the young Prince of the Kingdom of Diagas, this act leaves her no choice but to order her husband and cousin, Kreios, to "get rid" of the body and make sure it isn't traced back to their village, Solomon on the other hand, left his wife and new village behind to return home for the first time in 15 years due to the fact that he knew or at least had a suspension as to who did it. After 2 weeks of being on her own and placed on bed rest until the end of her pregnancy, Adina was shocked to learn that the other eleven tribes have come to her and demand that they forge a plan to take care of the wild beasts that has invaded The Northern Territory. After much debate and a ill advised insult on her father, Adina went further to name her younger brother, Chanda as the new Chief of the Bhavana Tribe, much to the shock and partially dismay of the other chiefs, marking the end of her reign, but she will remain the First Commander and Chief of the Twelve Tribes. After her brother formed the Death Killers, she witnessed her brother being attacked and immediately would seek help but unbeknownst to her - and the others - she was poisoned by an unknown assailant, leaving her life as well as her unborn daugther's in question. After much help and debate from the First Leigheas Nirav, Adina was forced to give a premature birth while her brother and cousin were out searching for a cure. Revealing himself as a traitor, General Ajay confronted Chief Abhay and demands to know what he did to her and reiterates that hurting her was not apart of the deal, Abhay nonchalantly reiterates that she is just collateral damage.

## Trivia

(To **Kreios**):*"You might be my second in command and you might be my cousin, but the next time you attack people who annoy you just because 'you can', I will strip you of your title, take your horse and kill you myself, got it?"*
