Ihla Xisiqo was a mutt, or so they were told by their peers - the child of a Seeker father and a Keeper mother, the later of which abandoned them soon after birth, leaving them in the care of a clanless male. And though he was put in a difficult position, the working-class I'whase Tia tried his best to raise his child as best he could, in the small one bedroom apartment they shared in the slums of Ul’dah. He gave them a Keeper name, so they would have at least some piece of their heritage.

From a young age, Ihla loved numbers. They counted everything they could, from people walking by to the gil I’whase brought home. He could not, however, afford to send them for formal education, so he taught them what he could, being an architect’s assistant and a man generally good with money. And so Ihla’s obsession turned from counting to measuring. Angle, degree, circumference, diameter, radius - they became their new language, a code all their own.

And then, one day, at 19 years old, there was magic. Accidental, but there.

Ihla was idly scrawling geometric patterns with one hand and drawing them in the air with the other when, much to the shock of both them and their father, the geometric shapes Ihla drew in the air took form, sparkled, and caused a bit of static before dissipating. It was then that I’whase knew that he was in over his head and contacted the Arcanist’s Guild in Limsa Lominsa. With the savings he had, he bought Ihla their first grimoire, passage to the island city-state, and a bit left over to pay for as much further education as they could make it stretch.

For Ihla, it was the first time that they made the connection between maths and tangible results. Experimentation meant critical success - or critical failure. Either way, the results could be explosive, and they couldn’t get enough. But their peers at the Guild, most of whom had been brought in on money and not merit, shunned and scoffed the half breed, preferring to stick to traditional ways of the Arcanist path.

Not Ihla. Ihla knew there was something more than what the textbooks said. And now, at 22 years old, they set out into Eorzea to find more truths of the inner workings of the universe.
