− | With the advent of the secret war, Nym ended up swallowing a Bee, but far from changing her into a servant of Gaia, she remembered that she already was one. Having always played the role of the dutiful, submissive housewife, Nym found her newly reawakened powers to clash with her husbands expectations of her as a wife and ended up leaving the family without giving an adequate reason as to why. This caused significant tensions in her already strained relationships with friends and family. | + | With the advent of the secret war, Nym ended up swallowing a Bee, but far from changing her into a servant of Gaia, she remembered that she already was one. Having always played the role of the dutiful, submissive housewife, Nym found her newly reawakened powers to clash with her husbands expectations of her as a wife and ended up leaving the family without giving an adequate reason as to why. This ended up being a major source of regret for her and caused significant tensions in her already strained relationships with friends and family. |
− | She initially joined the Templars who promised her resolution to her questions, but after staying with them for a short time realised they were mostly smoke and mirrors and promised more than they were actually capable of understanding, so she wandered Asia, eventually falling in with the Dragon with whom she served dutifully for a number of years, despite a growing sense of unease.

Fearing a second 'recurrence' of what caused her to leave her family in the first place, she fled. At some point she also came into contact with an ancient weapon of power, a sword from the Third Age which spoke to her in a way she could not understand. Owing to how heavy it was in her hands, forcing her to become physically stronger and more fit to adequately wield it, she nicknamed the sword Burden. |

They talked late into the night and come the morning Nym made to leave, but Cucuvea said to her 'You've been down that road before. Is that really where you want to go?' Baying her to stay, Nym came to live with Cucuvea and became her live-in protege, student to an unconventional and often crotchety old crone. After some months of apprenticeship the old woman abruptly came to her, informing her that she could not teach anymore and that the 'fledgling bird must leave the nest sooner or later'. She advised Nym learn more about the Filth so she could understand not only her enemy, but more importantly why she fought. |
− | + | During this time Nym met and became fast friends with a man known as Atley, and a woman known as Casey, the latter becoming an important member of her family, while the former convinced her to at last give up the responsibility of the sword she had brought with her. This was of great importance to Nym as it symbolised a contract she had forged in blood lifetimes earlier. Immediately she felt her spirit lightened and gladly relinquished the cursed sword to Atley's safekeeping, finding herself a simpler, less storied weapon to use in the meantime. In her interactions with Atley and Casey, Nym came to understand that her reason for being is to protect others, that if she did her job right, her son and daughters need never learn of the horrors of the Secret World. | |

+ | Nym returned to Transylvania years later and completed her tutalege with Cucuvea and seeing the degredation of the Forest firsthand and the many foes that threatened it, she agreed to stay. Taking up the mantle of the 'Green Lady', Nym became a manifestation of anima itself, forever changing into an Outsider (think Nephalim/demon) that patrolled the forests of Translyvania in the manner of the Cucuvea of old, providing safe shelter to allies, and swift vengence to agents of the Filth. | ||
