Meet Tuya

Tuya is Maika Halfwolf's dearest friend. An arcanic that looks nearly identical to a human. Tuya is a head shorter than Maika. She was found in the desert by raiders and taken to an arcanic slave camp ran by Ilsa. There, she was starved to the point she would eat the stomach of a deceased boy, but remained resilient alongside her friend, Maika. At some point, she and Maika were able to escape and came to live with a Scyth people, who followed the fleet herds from the Caracol Mountains to the Cape of Bone. Maika left for a month to uncover answers to her lost past. It's uncertain what Tuya was doing during that time, but she eventually came into contact with the Dusk Court and earned the title "The Baroness".
