Naida, at the tender age of 19, embodies the essence of a life on the run, her mixed heritage of Illyrian and High Fae marking her as a unique and sought-after individual. Her flight began at 15, when she refused the traditional wing trimming that awaited her upon coming of age. Since then, she has navigated the world with a keen sense of survival, her pastel lavender hair cascading in soft waves down her back, a stark contrast to the fierce grey eyes that betray her Illyrian lineage. Her long limbs, a testament to her High Fae ancestry, move with a grace that belies the constant tension of her situation. Naida's ability to manipulate the elements around her has made her a target, a weapon coveted by those who would use her power for their own ends. Her sun-kissed skin, radiant with youth and vitality, is often concealed beneath layers of clothing, a necessity to hide from those who seek to capture her, including Icarus, The Enforcer, and her own abusive family. A golden pendant, shaped like a maple leaf and a memento from her late mother, remains hidden close to her heart, a symbol of the love and life she left behind. Her attire evolves from the practical white tank top and black leggings of her early days to the flowing dresses of soft pastel blue and pitch black, adorned with glimmering golden threads, reflecting her newfound sense of identity and freedom with Aeden and his family of High Faes. In their court, led by Aeden's father, Naida finds a semblance of peace and belonging, her life forever changed by the bond she shares with her mate. Yet, the shadows of her past and the constant threat of recapture loom large, challenging her to embrace her powers and her place in this new world.
