Myra, Child of Shiva

In 192 NA, Myra was born on the Foundation ship of the Asgard Fleet. Throughout her life she struggled to make friends, only having one in her younger years, Aditi. However, when she was 7 in 199 NA she lost her only friend to another, Diya. Jealousy, anger, and betrayal quickly filled her.

She tried desperately to get her friend back for a year. Her anger and hate grew to dangerous levels during the year. It got to a breaking point when she turned 8. 

She caught Diya alone by a pool. She was just sitting there, unsuspecting, lost in her own world. facing away from Myra with her feet in the water. Filled with hate and anger, Myra walked up to Diya. She quickly grabbed her head and forced her under the water. Myra was not thinking, she wasn’t even sure what she was doing, she just knew she wanted Diya to be gone. Kicking and screaming under the water Diya took longer than Myra expected to stop moving. The more she kicked and screamed the more joy Myra felt. She held her under the water for about five minutes; even after she had stopped moving. Myra stood up with a grin on her face as she kicked the floating corpse towards the center of the pool. She walked out feeling happier than she had in years, she believed Aditi would be hers and hers alone once more.

When news spread about the drowning nobody suspected foul play. Myra made her move to reunite with her only friend without hesitation. However Aditi was not interested in talking to Myra as she mourned Diya’s death. She was even angry with Myra for not feeling upset about the death, calling her a heartless freak. Myra’s heart shattered when she said those words. She walked away, out of Aditi’s life, feeling sorry for herself.

In 202 when Myra turned 10, she began her lesions on the castes that she would eventually have to choose from. It is during this time that she met Rita. They quickly became close friends. When they turned 12, Myra began developing an obsessive attraction towards Rita. At 14 they both wanted to stick together so both chose to focus on the Wayfarer caste. They were inseparable. That is until Rita formed a romantic relationship with another, Aisha, at age 15. Myra was alone to fill with negativity once more.

In 208, when Myra was 16, the fleet began investigating Elysian Fields. She and others continued their lessons and practiced their castes by preforming missions in regards to the investigation. It was not easy and was dangerous, but the fleet needed all the help they could get.

On one particular mission, Myra coasted Aisha to walk with her to a secluded area. When they were both close to a dangerous area and alone she strangled Aisha to death. She thought that with her out of the way she could get Rita back. However, they were not alone. One of the mission leaders noticed Myra and Aisha walking off and followed. Since Myra was considered young, instead of death, she was sentenced to ten years of labor to pay back the wergild. It was there that she learned engineering skills from all the repair jobs and construction. The work was meditative to her. This caused her high emotional sensitivity to become leveled out. She became very obedient and preformed her tasked more efficiently than expected.

At age 20 in 212, she was allowed to go through the Ceremony of Final Naming. Throughout her studies, she has always felt a connection to Shiva. She then became Myra Child of Shiva.

Three years later, the law decided that she had paid her dues and released her early. However she did not feel ready. She still felt obsessed with Rita and felt she would loose control again. With this in mind she left the fleet on her own. She knew of a place where other Aesir have gone, a place that was know for self improvement and new beginnings. She headed towards Sanctum.
