Barucada Owali is born in the scorching deserts, where the sun reigns mercilessly, shaping not only the land but also its inhabitants. The desert teaches her resilience, patience, and an uncanny ability to adapt. The sand shapes her very nature, crafting her into what many would come to know her as—a sand witch.
As Barucada grows, she delves deeper into the ancient practices of her ancestors, focusing particularly on body healing. This art requires not only an understanding of physical ailments but also a profound appreciation for the human spirit. Through her unique blend of magic and medicinal knowledge, she masters the ability to restore others to their fullest potential.
Years of amassing knowledge come to a sudden halt when she's kidnapped by a devious local noble. Cruelly torn from her homeland, Barucada finds herself immersed in the politics of a foreign court. She is sold to the king's harem, a prized possession, where life is as lush as it is suffocating.
Despite the opulence and endless intrigues of these green lands, Barucada's heart remains firmly rooted in the sands that birthed her. She clings to her most treasured memories—a love that burned as fiercely as the relentless sun, and the simple joy of dancing beneath the untamed sky. Though the king commands her, he cannot conquer the indomitable spirit she possesses.
Employing her knowledge of body practices, Barucada navigates the treacherous waters of the royal court. She discreetly offers her services to those in need, while maintaining her place within the harem. Through her actions, she proves that her abilities extend far beyond mere hedonistic pleasures.
Barucada's life credo is woven seamlessly into every facet of her being, rooted in the sand that first nourished her. She believes that adaptation is the key to survival, that the power of letting go is just as vital as the force of one's will. To her, surrender and self-preservation are two sides of the same coin.
Her spiritual beliefs mirror the shifting sands of her homeland. She trusts in the power of balance, that there is no light without darkness, no growth without change. Ultimately, she understands that in the grand scheme of existence, she is but a single grain, a fleeting figure amidst an ever-evolving landscape.
In the midst of a foreign land, Barucada achieves something unexpected—she brings serenity to what should have been a hostile environment. Her mere presence seems to remind others of the beauty to be found within the unpredictable dance of life.
However, Barucada is not without her flaws. Her tendency to immerse herself in the struggles of others often leaves her blind to her own, a burden she carries silently. Additionally, her desire to retain some semblance of control manifests in odd and sometimes shocking cultural customs that challenge the king's authority.
Barucada holds a secret dream, a desperate, impossible yearning to return to her desert homeland. Unbeknownst to the king, the sand witch conjures visions of her people, carefully crafting a world that she can escape to, if only in her mind. It is within these visions that Barucada nurtures a most unconventional desire: to become a healer that defies the norms of both her homeland and the green lands, someone who can bridge the divide between the two worlds.
