Backstory:

A beautiful, intelligent clan leaders daughter, predicted to be the one to lead the clan to prosperity, and yet she was the one that watched it burn. Ironic for those of the flame itself.

A darkness crossed the land, a sickness that grew within the hearts of a neighboring clan. While the two first worked together to try and combat said illness, eventually patience wore thin and the neighbouring clan attacked. The warriors clashed in a gruesome battle, which lasted many days, not only in the skies but also on the land. Enya’s father was on the front lines giving motivation to his warriors, but found a sword to his chest by the leader of the other clan. His wife, despite being with the women and children back in the main hub itself, went down with him being a fated pair, the pain was too great and she quickly succumbed to it.

Enya’s identity was not widely known to the neighbouring clan, so she, with the help of an elder woman managed to escape. They had time to get the young children away with the slightly older women, whilst the elders held back, but a couple worked as a diversion to throw the rest off the scent. Reluctantly, she flew away from the battle, flew away from everything she had known, over the sea and over more land until her wings couldnt fly anymore. Her resources had run dry at that point so she crash landed, just missing a cliff face and landing in the dry brush of a woodland.

A trail of embers followed her due to the fire in her wings which led a curious band of teenagers to find her nestled within the rock and mud that she had landed in, her fire slowly fading. They were able to wrap her up in cloth so she did not burn them, and take her into their clan territory, the leader being very intrigued as to who and what she was, having heard about the phoenix, but never having met one.

Though she was not of their clan, being an outsider and an orphan, she was accepted into the clan, working as hard as the rest of the students, learning their language, and learning how to control her powers. Through their testing and their help, she was able to both limit and gain her powers through her own willpower. Revealing and hiding her wings became second nature to her, but the one thing she could not help was her temper. Being of a fiery nature, it was easy to set her spark, her telltale signs showing within her skin and her eyes.

That was until she was paired with Eira, a pureblooded clan member with the most serene and calm persona, they were fire and ice, literally, and, as they said, opposites attracted. The two were able to work together and balance each other out, if one got too cold, she would be warmed up, and if one became too hot, she would be cooled down.

They trained together, in both weaponry and hand-to-hand combat, along with honing their abilities, only strengthening their bond, and cementing their friendship and sisterhood. When they came of age, they swore an oath to the other, to always be by their side, or, in times where they needed to part, to always find eachother…..
