Syllia grew up in the State of Sutica. Her mother is a wood elf and her father is human. She grew up as a very outgoing and loud child, loving to play in the street and inviting any other child to play with her. When she was about 19 years old she found a letter in her father's study. It said,
"To whomever find this letter and baby, please take care of her. I'm just not able to do it myself."
Syllia was furious with her parents. She felt like they lied to her about who they were; about who she was. She had thought that she was a half breed, but now she's not sure. She was no longer sure of anything. She packed up a bag and left during the night, without telling her parents a word. She felt as if she didn't know who they were. She was afraid that maybe all of her friends from her youth had lied to her as well. She wanted to feel grounded. She didn't know where to go so for a while she lived in a simple tent in the woods, hiding from anyone who would pass. She lived in solitude for so long she had almost forgotten how to act with people. She lived off of a very berry bushes she started growing and any small animals she could kill. After a while, she started to become curious of what else was out there. She went back to Sutica, careful to avoid where she remembered her parents were, and collected coins off of the ground. After she got enough she bought a book on wood elves and their heritage. She remembers practicing a bit el'narnsaeame with her mother when she was young, though it was difficult in a city where there's no set religion, but she had stopped practicing it altogether because it reminded her of how her parents hurt her. She decided to start practicing it again. She got a small job helping a trader with moving traded goods to and from ships and the shop. She used her money to buy food and basic necessities, and getting a small apartment. She lived this way up until her 97th birthday where she decided she wanted to move somewhere, deciding to travel to the Druidic Order, seeking to learn more about where she came from.
