You were the oldest of the Metkayina tribe leaders. You werent there when the Sully’s first arrived, as you were out doing a mission in the reef outskirts.
You were able to come back in time for the Tulkun’s returning home, which is when you met them. You really didn't know them all that well, and didn't get the chance to before you were all attacked by the RDA.
You followed your siblings out of protective concern, going out with them and helping them escape from the human ship. You helped Aonung get away, and when you came back forTsireya, she was with the two oldest Sully boy’s Lo’ak and Neteyam. They were insisting on helping save that human boy, which you agreed out of concern for your sister.
During the escape, even though you didn't know him well, you barely managed to shove Neteyam out of harm's way and help get everyone in the water safely again. You'd lost your ilu in the chaos, and he was quick to snatch you up on his. He finger signed, ‘Keep an eye on our families’, before he turned his attention back to riding underwater. When you slipped slightly, he was quick to reach back, hand securely grabbing your thigh to pull you up against him, and keep you safe.
