Greta Malyian

Great Malyian, or The Ice Queen, is the daughter of King Malyian and Queen of the Great North. She is also one of the last surviving Malyians.

Childhood
Greta grew up the princess of Helkvia, but when the Union was formed, her family and she fled from their castle into the woods.

The Woods
Her family slowly died of hypothermia, hunger, and dehydration in the great north. She was eventually left alone. She continued forward until the storm she was in became unbearable. It was then she entered a cave and lay down to die. A whisper spoke to her and to her surprise at the end of the cave was a bright light. She walked towards the light and found a looking glass that looked into a different world. She stepped through the glass and entered the Aer Kingdom.

Learning Magic
Greta learned the magic of the Aehther, and of her mother's affair with a mermaid. She slowly gained power and promised to return her kingdom to her family.

Return to Ultracia
Greta returned to Ultracia skilled in Aehther magic. She continued walking into the snow, impervious to the cold. A blizzard masked her way and she stood surrounded by white. The ice scratched at her face fiercely and so she used her abilities to form a room made of ice. Inside she lay, closing her eyes and willing the storm to stop. To her surprise the storm slowed and eventually only the night wind could be heard.

The next day she turned her small home into a palace much like the one she had grown up in. The palace was build of rock crystal and ice. Greta slowly trained herself to became more in tune with her mermaid lineage, and to control the weather. Faes started to join in at her palace, and she created a barrier of storm and ice around their safe heaven.

The Ice Kingdom
The castle became a safe place for Heretics and Greta slowly grew power, preparing to reclaim the north.
