Life Story
Religion
As a devout Estelley follower, Inyokhen naturally hopes to one day achieve every standard of perfection (with the exception of Cemaan of course.) At his current age and circumstance, he's particularly aiming for the Leyon and Mana's standards of perfection.
Notable Relations
An older Asha couple living in Mandu on the outskirts of a small village couldn't produce their own child despite wanting to start a family, until they're granted a child by the Loyalty Arken.
His parents were practicing followers of Estelley, his mother being a mage herself.
During his early infancy, his father ended up passing away due to general health issues, leaving him alone with his mother. With the passing of her husband, his mother grew overbearing and obsessed with protecting her only remaining family member.
In his childhood, he was forbidden from leaving home under nearly every circumstance for his safety. On occasion however, she took him out to learn about Estelley and practice his faith. At home, she believed she was the only person he'd need in his life; every single task, chore, and issue was to be dealt with by her. She gave him nearly no space, always making sure to monitor him and ensure his well-being. Before long, Inyokhen became an extremely bored child, and he made it very apparent. To alleviate this, his mother began allowing him to perform the most basic chores around the house, and often brought home books and other basic arts to satisfy his curiosity.
As he became a teenager, she introduced him to magic and self defense as another way to keep his mind busy. Inyokhen went through each day waiting around reading books, being asked to perform a chore or two, or learning from his mother. As he got older, his mother began to give him slightly more freedom, allowing him to wander around within seeing distance of the exterior of their home during the daytime. This unfortunately made his curiosity greater, and he wanted to explore further and see new things. He was far too obedient though, not wishing to go against his mother's wishes, he remained bound to the house every day unless a religious event, gathering, or ceremony took place.
Reaching adulthood, he became mostly content with just reading and helping his mother however he could. There was always an itching desire to just open the door and run though. Inyokhen already brought it up with his mother before in the past, and she'd always convince him to stay. His mother used whatever tactic she'd need to at the time to keep him home, where she could see that he was safe. However, one day, while he remained at home while his mother was off shopping, someone broke in. Face to face with a tall Sihai man, Inyokhen eagerly introduced himself, trying to seem friendly. The Sihai would repay the kindness, explaining his predicament vaguely as "people being upset with him so he needs to wait here for a bit."
While the man waited, he introduced himself, answering a few questions for Inyokhen. At some point, he ended up telling him about how interesting and diverse Regalia was, before finally leaving.
This was the straw on the camel's back, leading to Inyokhen devising a plan to run away. For the next month, he spent time preparing to leave. He got a fair bit of money from his mother under false pretenses, and set up his belongings to leave in a hurry. During the night, after she had fallen asleep, he left a farewell note and headed to Regalia.

Kurahe was the Sihai man who broke into his home, being one of the first opportunities he had to speak freely to someone without being overseen by his mother. Kurahe's appearance directly lead to Inyokhen heading to Regalia.
2 weeks after Inyokhen's arrival in Regalia, he ended up in Crookback without much left. Two thugs tried to mug him, and resorted to violence after he admitted he had nothing he could even give them. Jü'oelle was going on a relief mission into Crookback when she came upon the scene, and personally scared off both thugs. He expressed his deepest gratitude, offering any means of service to her as thanks. Within the next week, he professed his feelings and she reciprocated.
