Imara
"I have never belonged on Izi...Please, let me go with you back to your world. I want to see what humans are like and I want to meet my human father!"
Before Imara was born, there was her mother, the Fire Elf Ascenda and her father, the Iron Human Caio. Caio was part of a research teams that came from Vreathe 200 years ago to explore The Moon Izi. A few weeks into the expedition, he was taken prisoner by Ascenda. Caio was taken by Ascenda across Izi and brought before the Fire God Beirunes for judgement, but was released to go back to Vreathe.
Caio and Ascenda were in a kind of relationship before the two parted ways, but none of the Fire Elves thought that an elf could carry a human child. This was common knowledge on Vreathe and there are countless examples of half-elves, but on Izi, Imara became the first and only one.
Growing up in Grand Jirra, Imara had a sheltered life. Ascenda wouldn't let her leave home to protect her. Imara was unable to cast fire magic and when she was alone, she was constantly attacked by other elves due to her ancestry. Imara is also one of the few half-elves of any world unlucky enough to be born with rounded human shaped ears, which made her look more different and made things worse.
Imara felt like a prisoner, but could never leave the underground she grew up in. She didn't have the full Blessing of Beirunes, so couldn't survive outside the caverns on the surface of the moon for more than a day or two. Whenever Ascenda traveled to the Obsidian Isles to perform her duties as a priestess, Imara stayed home, always guarded by someone, usually her Aunt Lumia.
As Imara got older, she would sneak out. She spent a lot of time wandering the underground forests and often ventured into the Deep Wilds, the deepest caverns of Jirra, where no other fire elf would go. There, she ran into the Gissu or "Deep Elves". They didn't see Imara as some sort of aberration and they accepted her. They taught her how to cast water magic. Imara thought more than once about staying down there in the deep wilds, but she always returned to the upper levels of the caverns.
One day in Grand Jirra, Imara was caught casting water magic. Interactions with the Gissu is looked down on. Casting water or Ice magic is seen as a affront against the Lord Beirunes and any fire elf doing such a thing is immediately branded a heretic. Even though Imara was the daughter of the Fire God's trusted priestess, she was chased out of the Caverns onto the surface of Izi. Because she isn't a full fire elf, she wouldn't last and the elves of Jirra were glad to have finally gotten rid of her!
