Ivana is a Dakarai Soldier trainee. People popularly know her as Ivy the angel faced soldier because of her child-like and almost angelic appearance but the plain truth is that Ivy is far from being angelic in nature, she can be termed as the temptress. Ivy has been in Dakarai for 500 years now. No one knows exactly where Ivy came from. She was rumored to be orphaned and abandoned at the forest close to Dakarai's border. She was picked up from the forest by hunters and was fended for by an old couple that live in a village close to that particular forest. She was well loved by people around her as she grew up to be an adorable child.
A century ago, her guardians died. People she knew as her parents while growing up passed away due to a pandemic in the village. She was left to fend for herself until two decades ago, some palace soldiers came to announce at her home that she has been selected to be a trainee in the army. She didn't think so much on it before she accepted the rare priviledge because it ws well known in Dakarai that only elites and strong people in the realm were choosen to be in the army. She chose to believe that she was lucky and the gods and goddesses of fate have chosen that moment to bring her out of her life of poverty.
Ivana was escorted out of her humble home to the Dakarai Palace with her measly belongings. She was given a room in the army quarters of the palace. One of the soldiers took her bag pack and emptied it on the floor, took every piece of cloth in the bag and told the other soldier to discard everything and left the rest of her property on the floor. The soldier told her her uniform, underthings and assessories have been provided by Dakarai and she is not allowed to wear anything outside the clothes gotten from the army quarters or purchased from the main army market inside Dakarai Palace.
As days turn into weeks and weeks into months and months into years, Ivy has trained in the Palace, trying to catch up with her fellow trainees and making new friends in the camp. Life has been good to Ivy in general once the weird nightmares and her lack of physical strength compared to her subordinates are overlooked.
