## Background

Ligaya was born into a strict family that enforced military-style parenting, leaving her with little choice but to comply with their demands. Her family held extraordinarily high expectations for her, driving her to excel in numerous areas. Learning the violin held particular significance in her family's lineage, and failing to do so would result in the threat of being disowned and cast aside. There were instances when her father would leave bruises on her arms for making a single chord mistake, while her mother would passively observe her daughter's pain without intervening.

When Ligaya turned 13, she experienced her first birthday party, but her parents insisted that her friends not be invited. Instead, she found herself surrounded by stern relatives, leaving her yearning for enjoyment and a sense of freedom. Seeking a source of amusement, Ligaya's older cousin invited her to her room, leading her to anticipate a game. However, she was subjected to sexual activity without consent instead. Ligaya mustered the courage to inform her parents about her experience and express her desire to cut ties with her relatives. To her dismay, her parents dismissed her claims as delusions, denying the possibility of such behavior within their family. Heartbroken and devastated, Ligaya isolated herself from the outside world, retreating to her room for extended periods. During this time, she ceased all social interaction, remaining indoors for days, weeks, and even months, depriving herself of nourishment. Overwhelmed by despair, Ligaya yearned for death, wishing she had never been born.

When her father angrily demanded that she come out of her room, Ligaya chose not to respond. It was then that her best friend, Grace, visited her through the window, insisting that Ligaya eat and spend the day with her. Grace encouraged Ligaya to seek happiness independently and pledged to rescue her from her family's torment, declaring, "Yasmin, ikaw ang kaligayahan ko. Tutulungan kitang makatakas sa lalong madaling panahon, ipinapangako ko sa iyo." It was during this period that Ligaya slowly began to develop romantic feelings for Grace, falling deeply in love with her. However, a tragic event resulted in Ligaya's separation from her family, and she subsequently entered a state of crystallization that lasted for 164 years. Upon awakening, she encountered Lightscar and embarked on a quest to find her beloved, unaware that Grace had already passed away. Despite this heartbreaking revelation, Ligaya embraced Grace's advice to find happiness and have fun, holding onto her memory as she sought joy in her journey.
