Ｂａｃｋｓｔｏｒｙ
Macalania was a broken foal. She was captured by a group of soquili who were
fascinated by the tree that grew on her back. They experimented on her, doing
twisted and horrid things. Eventually they discovered the healing properties of
the bark and the hallucinogenic effect of her crystals and they began to harvest
them. It was a painful process and when they had taken all they could, they left
her for dead.
But the mare miracally survived, living off the land, eating what she could from
trees and bushes. Her crystals replenished and her tree grew anew and she
thanked the Gods each day that the kalonas did not discover the regenerative
properties.
The mare began to live again but she was not the same. She had wanted to
forget all that had happened to her but a part of her had cracked. It wanted her
to punish those who had hurt her. Begged her to. Macalania tried to ignore the
Other, but it only made her grow stronger. Eventually, hurting her attackers was
not enough. She wanted everyone to suffer as she had. One night, the Other
took over Macalania completely for a brief moment and it scared the foal, more
than her attackers had.
She practised keeping the Other at bay and eventually she was able to make it
so the voice was a whisper inside her head, one that she could ignore. However,
if she's in pain or under extreme stress, her hold weakens and the Other takes
control.
As she got older, she developed a wanderer's nature, wanting to explore the
land to make up for her lost childhood. It was then she met Attachus Loch and
the two fell in love almost instantly. He accepted her for who she was, though he
did not know her past and she did not wish to speak of it.
