Zaila was just a lonely daughter of a hunter.
That was all.
She was lonely for the one she called father, and those she called uncles believed she was better suited to be raised at home and then sold off to some well-off family as a bride to some good-for-nothing young master.
Unfortunately for her, her mother died while giving birth to her.
Her best friend died, and for 15 years, she lived like a kitchen stool.
But as all bad things come to an end, her chance to escape arrived when her father died and her uncles went on the run after offending someone they shouldn't have.
This was her breakthrough moment, so she ran and never looked back.
But after running for an entire month, her food supply was running out, which called for immediate restocking.
However, she had never thought that far ahead when she ran.
So she chose to steal. This was the best way to keep going until she had run far enough.
