Hjyetta Astaseul

Hjyetta is a young girl that was born to her mother Niki Astaseul-Bakura and her father Fury Astaseul.She was born in the Cymrian City of Elefthria, the city her grandfather Delta Bakura owned.Because of her being raised in a pirate family, her attire matched that of her culture for the early parts of her life. Later, after becoming Empryess of Azula she switched to a royal black attire.

Early life
Since both her mother and father were pirates, both renowned to that too, Hjyetta learned early in her life how to wield a cutlass and sword. She always admired the elegance her mother showed with a weapon in hand, and the reputation she had made for it. Sometimes, her parents would take her with them on their adventures, on which Niki often showed her stories she had heard and made from all over the world. Since her mother owned her very own flagship, Hjyetta sailed all across the world since she was four years old. From the wheat port of Limani to the coast of Belleistan or the walls of Canisia, Hjyetta had heard all her mothers stories. All of that left her addicted to the breezes of the sea and the salty taste of the air. But, when not on another adventure with her mother, her life consisted of running around the streets of Elefthria, mostly being bored, awaiting her mothers return.

Moving to Lunaris
When Hjyetta was around fourteen years old, the rotten vines started infesting the streets of Elefthria,. Her mother helped her move to the Lunari town of Tsukikage, a town of Kitsunes just like herself, to avoid the dangers of the rot. It was only around two months since she moved out of her home town, but Niki had to tell her that she was leaving for the biggest adventure yet. And so, her mother left to take chare of the falling nation of Carn, and she would only hear in letters from her. Every two weeks another letter arrived on Hjyettas doorstep, until after around seven months, no more letters would arive. The now fifteen year old Hjyetta took matters into her own hands, leaving Lunaris for a trip to Carn, and to find the Cornflower Citadel her mother mentioned in a lot of her letters. When she arived on the coast of South-Carn, she was met by aggresions and threats every time she mentioned her mother or the Cornflower Citadel. Hjyetta didn't know it at the time, but South-Carn was actually occupied by enemies of her mother, and she had to learn that the hard way. When she finally made it to the Citadel, Hjyetta was amazed at what her mother had built. When she entered the Citadel, it was surprisingly empty. Walking through the entire thing, at the very end, she saw a grave in the distance. In disbelieve, she ran towards it, and as she read the name engraved she dropped to her knees and started crying. Her mother had passed away without her being there, and her father was too busy as the Pirate Lord, so he likely didn't know either. Not knowing what to do, she went back to her home in Tsukikage, cut all contact to others and locked herself inside her house.

Through the world
During the time she locked inside her house, her grandfather Delta came visit her in Tsukikage. He was trying to get her out of the jail she locked herself in.

"Held captive by your own fears is not something you, the daughter of a feared pirate should be doing.. Niki was always free, she always lived reckless and without consequences and that made her happy. What do you think would she say if she saw you like this?" Delta said to her. At this very moment she realized, that living in the past is not what her mother would have wanted, and that she was going to leave and live, to a place far away. But to where? Delta suggested that she could help him out in his own nation. Hjyetta, without hesitation agreed and soon found herself in a small port town on the souther coast of Aldovir. There she would become mayor of the port city of Yurki and get her first leadership experience. She also moved back to Cymru to the city of Deltonia and lived there for a while, before travelling again to the coast of Syltör where she went to visit the place where Niki had her first leadership experience. While travelling she still managed Yurki and was planning on coming back to it when she was done visiting Syltör.

Upon arrival on the souther coast of Syltör, she went to the Port of Wheat, Limani. Her mother told her about the golden age of Limani in her childhood, how the streets were paved with quartz and the towers and town ranged into the sky, but when she arrived at the Port of Wheat, she found a ravaged wasteland, with the town island sunken to the ocean bed. Under their new oppressors of Yimmu-Audal, Limani had fallen. The Limani fleet was nowhere to be seen, the beacon of the lighthouse wasn't glowing and the streets were robbed of their quartz. She couldn't bear the sight of that the nation that had onced belonged to her mother had fallen so drastically, so she went back to Yurki. But in Yurki, things only went worse.

She had sensed upon arrival that something has changed in Yurki, the flags of Aldovir weren't flying high as usual, the fishermen weren't out at sea and the bonfire in the center of the town wasn't lit. She moved through the town with her cutlass drawn, but noone was there. On the town hall, a note was left on the black board. Adavia, the province Yurki was in rebelled from Aldovir and all Aldovir sympathizers were eradicated. Everything she worked for was gone, and nothing held her in this world. Thankfully, Rathnir isn't the only place she could be.

Journey to afar
Some time after Hjyettas 21st birthday, she got invited to join the travels of Delta and a few others to the lands of Eldham, sister world to Rathnir far to the east. Unbenounced to her, this travel would change her life forever. Once she arrived in the port of Deltonia, where they would be sailing from she said her goodbyes to Rathnir, because she didn't know if she would come back. When they finally set off, Delta introduced her to the entire crew, a crew that would later be known in the entire north east of Eldham, the Crystal Travellers. This crew consisted of members of the Bakura family and friends namely, Delta van Nachtig, Kuba Bakura, Yide Bakura, Konan Tippensburg and Ryou Bakura.

The Crystal Travellers landed on a few islands off the coast of the north-eastern mainland of the continent Valresh

The Crystal Travellers founded the nation of Pacistan on two islands and a bit of mainland off the valreshi coast. They named their capital Deltonia, just like the city they started their travels from. Pacistan was an illegal settlement in the regions biggest nation, the Workers' Syndicate of Northern Valresh. However, through Deltas diplomatic skills, a lot of them he also tought Hjyetta, Pacistan silently took over the north-east. Pacistan reformed into the Imperium of Azula and Ulima and the north east collapsed soon after.

Crystal Shine upon Eldham
When the north east finally collapsed, Hjyetta took over as the leader of the IAU because Delta had to go back to Rathnir to help his other nation in a war. In the deepest caves of Azuleya, Azulas capital, the miners found an immense amount of Crystals and a mysterius water that could make the one that drank it resistant to fire. This culture of Crystals soon spread to Hjyetta, who reformed the nation into the Crystallien Empire of Azula. The nation was destined to be a power player in Eldham politics, but the first conflict already brewed with the neighboring nation of Korosechev because of a border dispute over the province of Cognia.

Hjyetta had been trained in politics and diplomacy for years now, almost as if he had known that he couldn't stay, but for now Hjyetta had to get the nation to stability and prosperity. However Hjyetta was new to conflict, and no amount of training could've prepared her for a threat of war by their Neighbors. So, the Crystal Shine that fell upon Azula was getting dim, and under the pressure, Hjyetta decided to give up sovereignity for stability. She went to her friends and family in Lunaris and asked the Phoenix Empress Amaranthine Luon, an old friend of her late mother. Both of them agreed that Azula would become a core state of the Lunari Empire, or Greater Plagos, depending how you see it.
