At a young age, her parents were killed by bandits, her only surviving relative being her older sister, [[Rina]]. In the wake of the tragedy, the two earned [[potch]] singing and dancing and decided to commit to a life as entertainers, travelling everywhere.

Together with Rina, the sisters appeared in circus performances. It was at this time that they met [[Bolgan]], who specialised in the art of fire breathing.
