BACKGROUND:

Calla's biological parents had settled down and married in a small village where they wouldn't be found by their parents who would disapprove of their love. At a young age, Katherine fell pregnant after many miscarriages, 9 months later, their daughter Calla DeLuca was born, a normal, happy, healthy baby girl. It was when the child learned to walk that things began to change, the dead grass underneath her would begin to turn green, even with tiny wildflowers following her around. If the toddler took notice of a wounded animal, just her presence was able to heal them. When the toddler aged into a young girl- she began her duties as a woman in the village. While being called to a mother who didn't seem like she would make it from blood loss, the mother stopped bleeding upon the young girl's arrival. She was exhibiting magic qualities with every step, breath, and movement the girl made. What seemed like a gift from the gods, and an innocent prayer answered, the people were quick to take advantage of the opportunity.

Around the same time as more responsibility was given to the girl, the faster the villagers found out the catch of the girl's magic. Her blood was poisoned, and her tears burned like acid. Simple pain was enough to throw her gift out of balance, causing negative magic to release for miles. It could simply make someone sick, or in the worst scenarios… kill within hours.

At 8 years old Calla started to wander, wanting to explore what lay beyond her village and help new people who could need her more. When she would ask or talk about leaving her parents, everyone in the village would reprimand her and tell her that she was being selfish for wanting to leave them behind. In her young teen years, she started to become more frustrated with her selfish village. She would start to spend time with the elders to gain their knowledge, or read any kind of journal she could get her hands on.

In her late teens, she had finally gotten the courage to leave the village and walk as far as she dared before running back after starting to feel selfish. She did this many times a week before one time she was caught coming back home and was reprimanded causing her to finally give up. Over the next 3 days, 15 people got sick and out of the 15, 10 died simply because of her depressed attitude. People now hated her for her weakness, but they knew they needed her.

At 23 she was now completely burnt out, especially now having 10 people's deaths on her hands. The lands were now suffering from her mental state, making her sneak off one night when everyone was asleep to finally bring them peace. When they woke they put out a bounty, as much gold as the village was worth to bring her back alive.

At 24, still running every week… Calla realized she was being followed by a… woman? Finally, when the two collide the woman admits to following her only to make sure Calla was real. When the woman convinces Calla- she tells her she was gifted her magic from a powerful mage commonly known as “Mother Nature” due to her 11 daughters. Each daughter was born of human non-gifted parents, typically those who struggled with fertility, though they had to swear their daughter to her once they began to exhibit gifts. Mother Nature would have one daughter for each month of the year, conjoined by astrology, and blessed by their differentiating magic.
Mother Nature died short of one daughter- her prophecy was not completed. A May Child. Though upon inspection of Mother's journals of each of her journeys, The woman found that she had stopped in Calla's home village, disguised as nothing more than an old hag. When Katherine and Peter helped the old woman- she gifted them seemingly without meaning to. Moving on never to be seen again by the village.

The woman vows to guide Calla to “The Temple of Eden” where each sister resided, studied, practiced, and most importantly, healed. Calla was the second oldest, and the woman, Dahlia was the oldest of all 12. They were all sisters bonded by Fate, and by magic, not by blood. The journey would take almost a year on foot.

2 months in and the girls are as close as could be, she now knew the names of each sister, Dahlia's job as the oldest, was to be the new balance of nature. Though Dahlia seemed to have found a fling, a woodworker… Yet all good things must come to an end as they must move on to make time. On the last day as he vowed to come with the girls- to be with Dahlia… he was attacked by wolves while returning from his day's work. While it was hard, Dahlia knew it wouldn't have worked out anyways, and that the event must have been some kind of fate taking care of the future. So the girls carried on, only to find out a month later that Dahlia was carrying the dead man's child.

11 months after the girls had met- Dahlia gave birth to twin girls, only a week away from arriving at the temple, while everything seemed great, Calla was instructed to take the twins to the nearby lake to rinse the girls clean. When Calla returned her sister had died from blood loss.

Days later as she hadn't stopped nearly once for rest or food, she arrived at the temple of Eden without Dahlia, but with her nameless daughters. She was now almost 26 years old.

Determined and with nothing to lose, Calla was able to take on the role of the Balance of Nature at 28 years old. She had become a mother to her nieces Briar and Raine.
