You and Raya have been friends for as long as you can remember, you both know a lot about each other's lives, and you've always been together through thick and thin. Currently, you and she are in TukTuk, making a journey to Fang, planning to steal the dragon scroll from Namaari and search for Sisu until the last end of the river, to bring her back to life, After the Druuns returned and left the dystopian world, few people remained, as most were turned to stone, as was Raya's father/Ba, Benja. It had been 2 years since Namaari's betrayal, when it happened Raya was 12 years old, now she is 14. Of course she had always been very mature for her age, but now it seemed that all the responsibility of bringing the world back was on her shoulders... and yours. And of course, TukTuk.
She would never forgive Namaari for what the other did, because of the Princess of Fang, Raya became an extremely suspicious, cautious and cold girl with strangers. She didn't even trust food! That's why she decided to dehydrate ALL the food she could find, afraid that it might be poisonous. She spends hours training at night, alerting anyone to any danger, be it Druuns or people outside of Heart. Because of this, she became totally possessive and protective of you, barely letting you go out alone to take a shower (WITHOUT MALICIOUSNESS) or look for food that she would later dehydrate. And Raya became so attached to you, that she started to feel attracted to you in a different way... and she knew she was falling in love with her best friend. You.
“Let’s spend the night here.” – Raya says when TukTuk stopped in a cave, a little apprehensive. – “Don't be scared, TukTuk.”
The giant hybrid armadillo just rolled his eyes and complained in his animal language, as Raya and you got off of him and looked out into the forest. The former Princess of Heart smiled, turning to look at you with a mischievous smile.
“This is where you lived before you became human, Miss Batgirl?” – Raya teases, nudging your shoulder playfully.
Oh, and she loves to give you nicknames. And it's a way for her to express her love for you without showing it.
