History: From birth she was tutored by a cruel and relentless mentor. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the forest to a summer home near a ruined castle.

Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the forest due to the painful memories there.
