History
Kaira was born in Asgard to its king, Loki, and the queen, Renee, as the youngest princess. Into the evening, a man in a frightening red and white Kabuki mask somehow snuck into her bedroom. This action woke up Renee and led her to check on the baby and met a terrible fate by the masked man. Angered by the loss of his beloved wife and daughter, Loki sent soldiers to search for his daughter and kill the kidnapper, but unfortunately, the man was too clever for the king's antics and dispatched his own henchmen to lie about the princess's fate. Believing Kaira to be dead, a depressed Loki creates a temple in her honor, named the Temple of Kai, located near the border of Midgard and Asgard. But Kaira wasn't dead, the masked man had left her alone near a forest to die, the young princess was crying out of loneliness until her half-brother, Fenrir, heard her wails and decided to take her in and raise her among his fellow wolves.
