Found at the edge of the Lake of Mists and Veils, all Annik remembers from before that day is the face of a woman, her mother. She had the same pale blue skin skin as Annik and the same eyes, but her hair was raven black instead of Annik's white.

Beyond that her memory starts that day on the beach when Birgit, who was the same age as Annik, found her there. Annik laid on the beach, wrapped in her own hair and wet from the water with a big, blue crab pulling her hair. When little Birgit tried to kick away the crab in order to protect the pale girl wrapped in her own tresses the hair lashed out, wrapped around her foot and kept her there. The crab angrily waved his claws and made agitated sounds. Birgit screamed for her father, who came running and freed his daughter with a single cut of his blade. The hair he had cut shrank into nothingness.

While the father, Theodric, wanted to run away, his little girl insisted they could not leave the pale girl there and after persistent whining he decided to make camp a short distance away from the shoreline, at the other side of a hill, and bring the white-haired girl with them. There, next to the fire, she warmed up and as evening fell she stirred. The moment she did the same blue crab came rushing from a hiding place behind a rock and as the girl opened her eyes and saw the crab she smiled, picked it up as her hair parted and hugged it.

Both father and daughter were happy to see the pale girl rise but were surprised to find she had been naked under her hair and Birgit rushed to bring Annik some of her own clothes. Surprised and skittish at first, Annik's reaction changed after with almost looked like a monologue coming from the crab.

Since that day Annik, together with the crab named Rapu, travelled with Birgit and her father, who in time came to see her as his own daughter. Together they moved along the coast of the Lake of Mists and Veils, Theodric, the father, working exterminator of vermin for the many villages that dot the coastline. In the days between villages, when they made camp, Theodric taught both girls how to handle a sword and while it seemed to come more natural to Birgit both girls excelled. It was also at these campsites that Annik started to develop her own magic abilities. At first it was nothing more than lighting a campfire without aid from flint and steel but later it developed into more. When their campsite was attacked by goblins Theodric cut them down, losing a finger in the process but instead of bandaging it like she had been taught, Annik used a newfound spell to close the wound and mend the skin over the small stump.

As both girls grew older they more and more went their own way; while Birgit became an accomplished sword fighter Annik got better with magic while her sword arm slacked behind. She also started to slowly gain control over her hair where all it did before was wave in non-existent winds. In time Annik started to write down her ideas regarding both magic and swordplay, trying to combine the two into a whole. As Annik got better at the combination she started to win more and more sparring matches with Birgit, until she in turn learned to recognise her sister's spells and started to interrupt them before she could finish.

When both girls were in their late teens it all changed. A messenger came from some lord out of Rostland. Theodric was to return with the messenger if he wanted a chance to earn back his honor and place as a swordlord. After some pleading the messenger agreed to stay with them for a bit so Theodric could both comply with the lord and find a place for his girls. This place he found with an old friend, a hermit living in the hills west of Mount Vesha, she had been the one to patch him up when he collapsed in those woods years ago when he ran from the same area he would now return to.

While neither wanted to part with their father, both girls eventually agreed to stay with the hermit, an Elven woman named Ereit. There Annik was confronted with another problem as her water from the lake ran out and Rapu, the crab that accompanied her everywhere, relied on the same cool, pure waters for his survival. Both girls had their waterskins but that would only last him a day or two. When, at the end of the second day, they approached Ereit she smiled and with a simple gesture created similarly pure water out of thin air, solving the problem.

When after several months there still had been no news from Theodric both girls decided they would head south themselves to search for him. But as they started to pack Annik realised that this would lead to problems with Rapu once again, as Ereit would not be accompanying them. Annik asked Ereit if she could teach her the trick with the water and while it cost over a week to learn, as the mechanics where very different from her own magic, Annik did learn a way to conjure pure water. Once that was settled they left.

When they arrived in Restov they soon discovered that the task Theodric had been given in order to regain his honor was in accompanying an expedition to reclaim the Stolen Lands. Nothing had been heard of the expedition since they left they were assumed dead, fallen to animals or bandits. Neither of them convinced their father was dead, the girls made a plan to find him in the Stolen Lands. Annik, who had the better survival skills of the two, would accompany a new expedition while Birgit, who was better at politics and diplomacy, moved to rally Theodric friends and gather support for a larger mission, starting with Ereit.

The reason Theodric fell from grace
