Character Backstory |
---|
Naib was born and raised in Ignacia. With his parents often absent working as rice farmers, Naib quickly learned to fend for himself. From a young age, he found comfort and purpose working alongside the local blacksmiths, Ray and Maya, who welcomed his quiet help in testing weapons and maintaining the forge. |
Before Kai and Nya were born, Naib would often stay late to assist the blacksmiths. In many ways, Ray and Maya treated him like the son they hadn't yet had. And when the children were finally born, Naib embraced the role of big brother with his usual quiet loyalty. He would carry Nya on his shoulders through the shop and challenge young Kai to “sword duels” with wooden training weapons. |
Relationship Backstory |
---|
Naib met Jay not long after Kai joined Wu’s team. Jay was loud, bright, and quite literally impossible to ignore. Naib felt something almost instantly, but before he could make sense of it, Jay laid eyes on Nya. Instead of saying anything, Naib stepped back, because if Nya was happy, that was enough for him. So while Jay chased his sister’s heart, Naib quietly hid his feelings. |
By the time the chaos with Nadakhan happened, Jay and Nya realized their relationship couldn’t survive the way it was. The moment that stayed with Jay most was during "On a Wish and a Prayer," when everyone turned on him. His friends got angry and ignored the pain behind his choices. No one asked how it felt to find out he was adopted. No one really saw him, except Naib. |
One night, after they returned to the monastery, Naib was patching up Jay’s newly injured eye. And under a star-filled sky, Jay realized that Naib had always seen him and always cared. Naib fell first, but Jay fell way harder. |
