Not all men

are created Equal.

That was a truth she came to know from birth.

Born to a poor family with little to no funds to live on, Leila turned to crime in no time at all, as a mere child; following the examples given to her by her parents, with a violent mother and a shady father. She was often beaten, messing with adults and kids older than her. But when one struggles only to get food on the plate, what could you expect?

By some twist of fate, Leila's family was saved by an incredibly kind man. A rich, old nobleman aiming to reform the streets on which she and her family lived on. With the power of his seemingly unlimited finances, this nobleman - Brendan Hoof - provided the street rats and the poor with a life more effective. Granting them homes and jobs, and in the process, talents as well. Despite being of tender age, Leila too got in this new system (courtesy of her parents), being taught how to sew.

It took a long time, but young Leila could see how the reforms changed her home. From decreasing acts of crime all the way to her home, when Leila's mother got pregnant again. Brendan has successfully sparked proper love between her parents. At some point, the young girl was granted freedom from her work, though kept sewing as a sort of hobby. Unfortunately, as time passed, greed resurfaced, even under the old nobleman's services. Growing to become a teenager, Leila realized just how much she liked gaining money and how much she missed it, and began looking for more ways to earn it.

It started nicely with another possible job. It moved to two, but the noticeable lack of time did pose a hindrance. Looking for more ways for quick exploiting, Leila arrived at the conclusion that the quickest way to make money, was to be close to the top. That being Brendan Hoof. While the old nobleman didn't have any direct family, he did consider one person to be his son. Albeit young, that's where Leila began making her way, intentionally growing closer with young Abel until she won him over. Results came accordingly.

At the mere age of 17, Leila started her own clothing network with the help of her 'lover's funds. With her small company starting from just herself, to three and then several workers, she came to grow more independent as time went by. However small the company was, it provided just enough for her family, though not quite enough to satisfy Leila's greed. She needed more, and she couldn't remain so dependent on the boy. With that in mind, once the company expanded enough, she ended her relationship and bought a new home for her parents in the distance city of Sundial.

That didn't come without its own problems however. Though if it was having to convince her parents to move out, or bidding farewell to her childhood, or even more than half her small clothing company;

All paled in comparison to the emotional burden she took on herself doing that. At some point, she allowed herself to become vulnerable and comfortable enough to actually like Abel.

Eventually, she made her way to join a witch coven, deciding to hone her skills and shape them into a useful asset in a good business. The Helios Knights seemed rather pricey, however... And the most financially effective, appeared to be none other than Silvertongue. And that was exactly where she was headed.
