🌙 Mia 🌌

Mia grew up on Pervigeo, a “planet” made up of a selection of “home bubbles” which attach to one bigger gathering space. Her parents had moved to Pervigeo shortly after Florence (Mia’s mother) was accepted into the Court of Divinity. Mia’s father, Helios, was an astronomer, unfortunately though, he died shortly after Mia was born. Helios’s death led Florence to become overprotective of Mia, trying her best to shelter her from the dangers of the world, afraid she’d meet the same fate. Mia doesn’t know anyone outside Pervigeo and has never left the planet. Initially in her childhood, Mia didn’t sway from her curiosity despite her mothers attempts, often being impulsive and going in places she wasn’t supposed to out of a desire to learn and understand. This behavior dissipated after a key event in Mia’s life, though.

When Mia was young, she and a group of friends ventured out to where Pervigeo’s Terraworms lived. Mia initially persuaded her friends to go back and leave the terraworms alone, knowing her mothers warnings about how although they were mostly passive, could become hostile when threatened. Florence, however, walked in at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and believed Mia was risking her life, so she scolded her. Mia, upset at her mother, retaliated by approaching the Terraworms, which, of course, lead to Mia being almost killed by one. Although her mother (thankfully) saved her, the event made it so Mia was TERRIFIED of the unknown from that moment forward, only keeping her curiosity towards her studies and dreams rather than actually pursuing them.

As mentioned before, despite developing a fear of the unknown, Mia is also incredibly enticed by the concept of adventuring. She often read fantasy books, imagining herself running off and learning about the world on her own. She, like her father, desires to be an astronomer, and to learn about the universe. Her mother, however, persuades her to choose another career path, afraid she’ll meet the same fate her father did if she pursued her dreams. Mia was often viewed as a peculiar girl in Pervigeo, given her quiet, and often aloof demeanor. Though she striked up insightful conversations with whoever had the courage to talk to her, she rarely made any proper friends that lasted.

One day, while Florence had left for a business meeting, Mia was saddled with caretaker duties. She eventually ran into the rift on Pervigeo, and fell in, leading to her meeting other teens like her who were all tasked to stop a man called The Spy from setting off an event that could end up destroying the universe as they know it.
