Early Life

Leika had grown up as someone living under the sun. Her mother, Deliah, held the position of a queen in her own right and had married the king of Elysium, who was known as a self-proclaimed duke without diminishing his own worth. Life was easy in the first few years for Leika, playing with her siblings Azreal, Ezkiel, and Luka. Despite being the second oldest, she always felt valued and loved.

However, things changed when people began to notice her insecurities. Perhaps they thought she was too dramatic or her skin was too dark. Whatever the reason, she and her mother were subjected to ridicule whenever they were together, and Delilah, her mother, never seemed to smile in those moments.

Eventually, Delilah took Leika and Luka to the desert to seek a deeper understanding of their lives, away from the craziness, ridicule, and hardships they faced every day. Their father was not of much help, always giving people the benefit of the doubt and allowing others to take advantage of their family.

During their journey, Leika realized that everything came at a price, even her place in the line of succession, which shifted and changed when Aylin was adopted.

Notes

Years after deserting her hometown, Leika finally settled enough was enough and reached home. At first, it was bustling with people, and she kept to the shadows. The shades were a secure place for her to reside. No one knew her there. and even then, her own father was too busy dealing with the nation. She lived in squalor and made friends in some unlikely places. One of those many people would be Valindra, a high elf with a strong dislike for many things. But they had one thing in common: drinking. that was enough for the two. After one day, Valindra got a tattoo. As Leika followed along with the women, a wood elf caught their eye, draped in tattoos, almost as if he was dispatched himself from their own wants. Valindra loomed and requested for the tattoo. It was a pleasing agreeance. The tapping of the machines was like a delicate art that Leika just had to know. Once Valindra's own tattoo was done, Leika rushed to the peculiar wood elf. who promptly declined all of her attempts at seduction and guilt-tripping, the man was a stone wall claiming he did not tattoo humans So the thought came up.

  • What if he taught her?*

Leika did what Leika did best. She squared her shoulders, batted her eyes, and went, "Would you like to make a bet on it?" Who would bet a wood elf on archery-like games? She must be a fool! Especially if he claims to be the best in elveness. It didn't matter to Leika; she would charm him and sneak her way into getting a tattoo lesson. She had made up her mind and this is what she wanted... at the time.

Ehrendil Taliame'onn, after many tattoo lessons The two grew close; he introduced himself as Ehrendil Taliame'onn and she as Leika. She hadn't tried to conceal her identity from him.The words had always felt forced on her tongue t speak her last name. But they came to a crossroads. He would not, for the life of himself, allow himself to fall for a human.

In such a ridiculous notion in Leika's head, there was no discrimination in Elysium. She pestered him. Half- breeds roamed like leaves in fall. "Why won't you love who you want to love?" "It's illegal for me to date humans. People in my old home would get killed for that. " "No," he said sternly, rubbing a ring. Her gaze had been drawn to the ring for the first time, and she had no idea she was chasing someone who would never love her?

Marriage

Time flew by as Leika got more involved with her family members and tried to get to know her adopted sister. But she was missing something. She had been mocked her entire life, and she wanted just this one thing. Why was this such a unbending thing? Years had gone by and Ehrendil and Leika had become so inseparable that even their relatives noticed. Both received a lot of stares, but Ehrendil held himself back, trying his hardest to resist Leika's charms as well as Eugeos' gaze. The tension fell on both and they soon became too close that they couldn't hide from each other. Under the needs of the purple wood tree, Leika had named Leika two. Ehrendil proposed... but proposed they hid in secret. Aylin and Valindra were to be the few couples, that no one else needed to know about. This.. was a dismay in Leika's eyes. She wanted to be true to him. But if this is what he wanted, she would do it to make him happy. With Aylins's go-ahead, he became her knight, her shield in action. And his lady Lethal. Leika would go to the Vale, a druid home full of mage-hating druids, at this time. She met a man by the name of Royland, under Verronna's guidance, and they became sweet friends. Royland had a special talent. He could make almost invisible tattoos that glowed under the night sky or shade. Leika found such an interesting concept. In thought, in theory, she could have her engagement ring on her finger and only the people of the night would be able to know. Royland and Leika spent hours pouring over the design and how one might be able to do it. That night, Leika poured over the leather to figure out how to do it and began the process of making a wedding ring tattoo that no one would know about.

Reign

Leika Juno Delia De Talimeonn De Astrea, widely recognized as The Wild Flower Monarch, ascended to the throne during a period rife with turmoil in the annals of Elysium's history. Born into an esteemed noble lineage, she shouldered the daunting responsibility of reconciling a fragmented kingdom and restoring equilibrium to her people.

Reign Amidst Turmoil

Leika's reign commenced amidst a turbulent backdrop, with the governing body in disarray due to the tumultuous tenure of her father and sister. Driven by an unwavering dedication to harmonious coexistence and prosperity, she embarked upon her regal journey with resolute determination to guide Elysium towards a brighter future.

Her pursuit of a peaceful existence, embraced under the moniker Elysium, faced considerable resistance. Opportunistic adversaries endeavored to undermine her authority, subjecting her to incessant trials and instigations. Through manipulation of information and fomentation of discord, they sought to provoke Elysium and Leika into an unjust war.

War and Diplomatic Maneuvers

The War: Orcish-Elysian War, spanning the years SA 72 to SA 83, emerged as a consequence of a grave incident involving an orc who inflicted harm upon a child.

Slanderous accusations regarding her purported status as a mage and her alleged union with an elf further compounded her tribulations. The apex of these trials materialized in the form of the Malinor War, during which she orchestrated a pivotal accord with Princess Ivarielle fortified by the unwavering support of trusted allies.

Under the watchful gaze of her dear confidante Valindra and the influential Cersuil clan, Leika exhibited unwavering resolve, decisively shifting the precarious balance of power. This diplomatic triumph served as the harbinger of an alliance that would irrevocably shape the destiny of Elysium, thereby cementing her status as a visionary leader of profound influence.

As a 35-year-old monarch, Leika assumed the paramount duty of piecing together the fragmented remnants of Elysium. Amidst the dearth of a viable successor and with her children yet in their tender infancy, she shouldered the burdensome mantle of leadership. Guided by her unwavering commitment and fortified by the unwavering support of her devoted sister and esteemed alliances with families such as the Vanaris, Talimeonns, Starlings, Daafs, Odinsons, and Chayperes, Leika spearheaded the resuscitation efforts of the newly established Vikela.

Her young reign, characterized by unyielding resilience, unwavering determination, and transformative leadership, left an indelible imprint upon Elysium and its inhabitants.
