An undetermined time before the events of Gates to Infinity, Volyrina was one of the many younglings in the Axew clans living around the Mist Continent. While her clan lived north, it was not as far north as the Glacier Palace, and they were isolated from direct cold weather (likely at Smoking Mountain).

Over time she grew disillusioned with the clan's (otherwise relatively safe) isolationist take on matters as the world was slowly devolving into apathy and treachery around them. Feeling that her clan had betrayed the sense of dominance that should characterize a Dragon, Volyrina got into a fight with her clan fellows. The meeting ended in not very amicable terms and Volyrina was no longer welcome in the nests. In her own words however, she defected from the clan - “their loss”.

Still not much knowledgeable of the world around her, Volyrina moved from place to place never establishing herself for long. In her head the idea grew that there should be a place in the world where Dragons, or at least Axew like her, would be able to learn and practice whatever they want - but after searching for a few years she could not find such place.

Decided to create a “dragon paradise” of her own, Volyrina tried to earn enough resources to start a business, going from place to place and doing random jobs in the hopes that she could buy herself a patch of land somewhere. However she was ignored several times and scammed a few others, in particular by the character identified only as the "Scammer Pansage"; and she could never really progress in her idea up until Post Town's Quagsire decided to save her a contract for a patch of land in exchange for some “dangerous” services that the few venturing rescue teams were not willing to do.

It is in the context of delivering the deed for that patch of land that she gets lost in a forest and randomly happens upon Feremiz when the latter literally falls from the sky onto her head.

Back to Volyrina.
