Sophie Foster. An outcast. No one would've thought that Sophie would become hated by the friends she loved so much, but their feelings weren't mutual.
After getting captured by the Neverseen, the Black Swan all blamed Sophie for their demise. But, their hate fueled her.
"Just face it honey, project Moonlark is a failed experiment."
She was kind though, and their hate fueled her to defeat the Neverseen, once and for all.
But that didn't banish their hate. They still hated her. So, she did what any sensible person would do, she ran away.
She made a new life in the forbidden cities, one that got turned upside down when a certain someone comes along.
