((A summary of Kiht's RP story so far with some of the best screenshots I have taken since starting RP in FF14arr nearly a year ago. I wanted to share them, but also give them some story context. They are not in chronological order.))
My name is Kiht Jakkya. My mother use to call me a “little Furyâ€, but some of my friends rarely see that side of me. For most, my personality likely seems closer to that of my most admired Goddess, Menphina.
I was born and raised in the Twelveswood. Not many people understand what that means. Some may picture me running through the wilderness in a loincloth while others will think I was raised in the city of Gridania. The truth lies more in between those two things. I was not isolated from civilization or modern crafts, but I lived -in- the forest. Sometimes I slept in a bed at a settlement while other times I slept in a tree. Life was a combination of wilderness survival and civil society. It was a nomadic life.
I once overheard someone refer to the Twelveswood as a place for pacifist “tree-huggersâ€. But anyone who has actually lived there knows otherwise. I was raised to hunt the things that hunt other things. In many parts of the Twelveswood, it is a predator eat predator environment.
Every corner of the Shroud requires vigilance. Weapons in my hands and allies at my side; I was taught how to survive in a forest world. Even after the Calamity, the Twelveswood is still so vast.
Once I became a scout for my family, I zealously set out into Thanalan to see what else Eorzea had to show me. I did not let the vastly different environment stop me. I saw places, I met people, and I even found that there were other Moon-keepers who had made a life in such a place.
However, there was still much to do at home. More life to be had, and more strange people to meet. Some of those strange people would even become friends.
I even fell into romantic love. My first experiment with the concept. It was deep and dramatic, but it fell apart as quickly as it had began. It taught me many lessons. I learned that the passion of my heart should be guided by the wisdom of my mind. Lyn and I found that we were just two very different people. I could not accept his life-style, and he could not accept living any other way. Our bond was not meant to last.
Next I set out to La Noscea. I found that I hated sea-travel, but the ride on the giant boat was well worth it. The land had more wilderness than I had expected. So many ancient and extraordinary places to scout. The land had a story, and every malm was a different chapter.
