## History

Ista had trouble finding interest in anything, while her sister took interest in almost everything. Ista grew up with Asta and Hyura and became very close friends with each other, even though Hyura and Asta would sometimes have fun at Ista's expense.

One day, Asta's and Ista's village was attacked by monsters whom managed to break through the village barrier. However, they were saved by Vamirio. From that incident Asta and Ista were inspired to become soldiers of the empire. They eventually become personal subordinates of Vamirio.

She graduated from Demon King Gwyn Castle Academy. Since Hyura and Asta traveled after graduation, Ista decided to go on her own trip until she was old enough to take the entrance exam.

As a result of her resolve, she became the close aide of her heart's greatest desire, the Red Heavenly King.
