Early Life
Although she was born in Ala Mhigo, Safiyya did not grow up there; less than a year after her birth, her family and many more escaped from the city-state due to their differences with the Garlean Empire. Instead, she was one of the first generations to grow up within what is now known as Little Ala Mhigo.
From an early age, Safiyya showed an affinity for dance. Even before she was old enough to focus on technique, she would dance whenever she had the chance, trying to mimic the adults around the camps. Her mother recognised her talent, and with the help of others within the community, she began to teach Safiyya.
Safiyya also learned how to cook early on, helping the community make the large scale meals as well as helping her mother cook for the family. Although she only learned how to cook traditional Ala Mhigan meals while she was young, she has expanded her repertoire of recipes since leaving the settlement. While she enjoys cooking quite a bit, though dancing is her first love.
Like many others in her generation, Safiyya was also trained in martial combat so that she could protect herself. Between the creatures that lurked in the deserts of Thanalan, and the ever reaching shadow of the Garlean Empire, the leaders of the community believed it best that everyone know how to fight in some fashion. While she showed a slight aptitude for magic, Safiyya transformed her dances into deadly combat by modifying the teachings of the Ala Mhigan monks that fled their homeland.
