Discovered as a child clinging to driftwood in the Indigo Deep, Zaya lived in much same way as she was found: lost at sea. Her markings belonged to no known Miqo'te tribe, and a restless and mischievous temperament precluded any family that called her adoptive La Noscea village home from granting her one, and so she was left with the name No'Zaya, a tribeless daughter of the storm.
Naturally, when the grand companies came for volunteers to aid in the push for Carteneau, she shot off like a rocket. Acting as a messenger, it was her responsibility to bring the withdrawal order to the adventurers under Dalamud's shadow, only to be caught in the heart of the Calamity and whisked away by Louisoix's spell. That was enough to wipe her meagre contribution from the annals, but worse was to come when she returned to her village to find it crushed under Dalamud's shell. The starshower that descended on her came as no surprise, her world had already ended.
Living crumb to mouth on the fringes of society, adventuring seemed a natural default career option, spurred on by an annoying voice that boomed around her skull imploring her to hear, feel and think things despite her inclinations. She journeyed ever further from what she knew until she ended up in Gridania, where the chain of events that would bring her into contact with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn and her fellow Warriors of Light would begin.
But this would not be her story. Not yet. Not until she retraces her path back across the Indigo Deep, back to the distant shores of the New World, and back to the mystery behind her origin that she has only just begun to ponder.
