She was born Amiyah Joy in the Kingdon of Nostrebor. Some called her AJ, but her grandmother called her Princess Amiyah because she recognized that she was born with a very special gift. It was the same gift that was evident in her late grandfather, the Grand Duke of Nostrebor, Prince Rosford, who lost his life under dubious circumstance. It was alleged that his older brother, Prince Jaydomi, had a yearning to rule Nostrebor. When the Kingdom was given to Prince Rosford, his older brother made a declaration that as the first born he should have been given control of the Kingdom. when they return from the annual moons of hunting, it was feared that Prince Jaydomi had done something unthinkable to his brother, but it could not be proven.
