Larissa of the Grotto

Larissa and Wizard #591 met as orphans, and that was the single most binding trait of their friendship. Nothing could separate the two, despite Layla being the more outgoing and Larissa being very reserved. The dynamic worked well - when interactions with other wizards were required, it was Layla that would do the talking. When it was pure magical power needed, Larissa would come through, although Layla was no slouch herself.

Larissa did not understand her own power - she was brought up as an orphan, never knowing her parents, and never being taught about magic. She learned to hold back early, as she nearly killed multiple other children in the orphanage who were brave enough to bully the wizard. After the mess hall incident and the group time incident, no one dared bully Larissa and she was allowed to live by herself alone. Nature was always Larissa's favorite thing - the whistling of wind through the trees, the crickets chirping, and the consistency of the sun rising and setting day after day. Having no peace in her own life, she found peace in nature.

When Wizard #591 told her she was going to run from the orphanage, Larissa thought nothing of it. Larissa thought she was joking, but when Layla left and failed to return for two days, Larissa decided to go find her. Appalled by the orphanage's apathy to a missing student, Larissa set out to find Layla. She expected to have an extremely difficult time, but almost as if something was guiding her at every fork in the road - Larissa ended up in the grotto within a day. Layla had begun constructing a makeshift abode, and with Larissa's magical assistance, they were able to create a fairly luxurious shelter. The two became fast friends, until one day the dynamic changed as another wizard appeared at their door.
