Omie

Story

During the Third Astral Era, approximately 5000 years ago - the Allagan empire had been seeking out alternatives for harvesting power and control over all things incorporeal. A young Allagan nobleman Summoner by the name of Syrifas was given the task of researching ways to control and manipulate incorporeal aether and its residual essence - the soul and the memory. Working closely with the acclaimed Amon, Syrifas finally had a major breakthrough in his research, achieved by creating clones and experimenting on them for better results. After the research had reaped its reward, the Allagan empire was destroyed, and Syrifas locked away their research deep in the earth, along with all the slaves.
Even six millennia later, these slaves not only found a way to survive but to thrive.
With no light at all, they attained an acute sense of their surroundings, but mostly communicated through chirps and calls throughout the caverns.
One young woman from this ironically formed civilization found a way out, but upon seeing light for the first time, her eyes were blinded. With no understanding of the world that she could not even begin to perceive, she wandered for three days until she collapsed and was found by a group of slavers.
She was brought to an illegal trade market and auctioned to the highest bidder, after being purchased for a small sum of gil (because of her blindness), the girl escaped her masters and ran into a traveller named Silver Caden who tried to communicate with her. But not understanding his words and still very much unaware of her surroundings she simply clung to Silver. In time she began to trust him. Though she took years to learn to speak, his actions spoke volumes to her.
Before long Silver grew very fond of the young woman. Being that she still had no name, he began to call her Phina, after the goddess of love (Menphina). Before Silver decided to settle down from his travels, he dedicated his life to Phina and offered himself in marriage to her. They wed and had a daughter they named Lila. Lila was born very gifted in manipulating incorporeal aether. At a young age, Lila started to interact with memories of others and began to use these memories to store emotions of her own and use a form of empathic magic to heal herself or others. When Lila turned three her father had a little necklace fashioned for her with the word ‘Fate’ engraved on the back.
He said, if they ever were to get lost, the necklace would bring them back to him.
He even wrote a song to go with it that he sang to her every night as she slept.
Soon though, the past caught up with Silver. The slavers found out that Phina was more valuable than they had sold her for, and they wanted her back.
Silver was in the house tending to some things as Phina and Lila played in the fields outside the safety of their home. Some bounty hunters ambushed Phina and Lila. Phina was killed in an attempt to keep Lila safe from harm. Seeing that they had lost their bounty, they took Lila instead and brought her to the slavers where she was sold off to a pirate lord, Captain Bloodwolf.
Lila spent her youth on a ship as a slave and object of superstition.
She was abused heavily and seldom fed. A slave boy Kye Tia was brought below deck. Chained and emaciated, she tried to nurse him back to health slowly by bringing him scraps of the captain's dinner. In an attempt to eventually repay her, he taught her basic human interaction so they could communicate on a very elementary level. And even gave her the name Omie, as she no longer knew her own. Omie was found out and was forced to watch as Kye was keelhauled. Lila, now known as Omie jumped overboard hoping the sea to take her life but was soon found washed ashore by an airship captain named Zaya Ejinn.
Zaya and her crew took Omie under their wing and raised her from then on to gain confidence and learn to trust again. More importantly, to love.

Story

After a few months, a distress call was sent from a neighbouring warf to Limsa's shores. A ship was reported burning in the ocean after being attacked by another fleet of pirates. Zaya and her crew went to investigate as Omie stood on the docks watching in horror as the crew boarded the old slave ship that she was once captive on. She tried cry out to them, but the warnings were too late. Soon the crew would find themselves face to face with the cruel and merciless pirates that once enslaved their new companion. After returning to shore Zaya and the crew had a few slave survivors with them. Amongst them was Kye. He had survived the Keel haul. And Omie and him were safe now in the blanket of the clouds. Until ...
Three months later.
Zaya and everyone on the ship including Omie and Kye took to land and boarded in Uldah. A gruff Highlander man, possibly in his thirties seemed to be waiting for them. As they tried to pass by Omie clung to Zaya for protection. Something was not right, and Zaya could tell. The man approaching Zaya greeted her simply by introducing himself as Captain Barbosa. Noticing Omie was immensely uncomfortable she sent Kye and Omie to the markets with some gil.
Zaya stayed with the man for but a few minutes before Kye came running back reporting that Omie had been taken. Zaya in a fit of rage and desperation, pinned the suspicious Pirate against a pillar and demanded to know where she was and why she had been taken. Barbosa surprisingly was more than willing to help. He said he was not after Omie but simply after information. And furthermore was not responsible for Omie's kidnapping.
With burning righteous fury Zaya demanded that Barbosa would help them find her once more to which he agreed.
They followed Barbosas lead to the dock where he suspected Omie was taken. But as they arrived they where too late, the ship had departed with Omie in it and they where ambushed by remaining pirate thugs who overpowered Zaya's crew and took Barbosa with them, as he was taken away Barbosa slipped a note to Zaya with coordinates to an odd location in Thanalan.
Completely out of options and resources to find Omie, they took the crew by ship to Thanalan. Upon arriving at the location specified in the note, they stood in front of a cave that led to a lone woman worshipping a statue of Menphina. Upon trying to address her though, they were surrounded by a clan of Ninja's. One in particular seemed keen on killing Zaya but upon her mentioning Barbosa's name the matron of the clan ordered for them to stay their blades.
Upon asking for why Zaya and her crew decided to plunge themselves into their dwelling place. Zaya told her everything. The matron disgusted told her that they were a clan of assassins that worship the moon goddess and that they had been intel for Barbosa and Bloodwolf's crew for years. They had provided information on how to find Omie by means of a mole in Zaya's crew. The intent of Bloodwolf was simple. He had been betrayed by one of the ships in his fleet, the captain attempting to keep knowledge of treasure to himself. This same ship that was sunk into the sea, the same ship that once enslaved Omie was now a great loss to Bloodwolf and he not only wanted it back but he wanted anyone that might be still alive from aboard that ship. Omie was his ticket back to the treasure. In attempts to make things right The matron not only provided them with Bloodwolf's location but also freed one ninja from service to assist them in retrieving her. The one ninja who was most intent on killing her.
The man behind the mask, conflicted, but still determined to do as his matron commanded, revealed himself as Zaya's brother. One that she had abandoned at an early age and ran away. He had nothing but disdain for her at the moment but he still helped them track Bloodwolf's fleet. Bloodwolf intended to commandeer a ship from Limsa to make up for the ship he had sunk into the sea. They all made haste to Limsa, informing the maelstrom of Bloodwolf's plans.
