Azyia grew up in a town called Tagro, and her parents were Blacksmiths. The town was well in debt, and she had to work alongside her parents at the early age of five, doing small jobs. When she got older, she learned how to steal, and eventually, at the age of fifteen, was appointed by a woman (called Nydia Orlock) as an assassin, for a hefty pay. In the process though, she had earned a Chelsea smile on the left side of her face, which makes people anxious to approach her.
