When he turned 16 Siyun was set to graduated from his academy early, however, before he could graduate an accident claimed the life of both his parents. The shock of their deaths forced Siyun into a ten day seclusion. On day ten his youngest sister, Siaka, entered his bed room and asked him if they were going to be split up (among the other family members). Although he felt apathetic towards his sisters growing up the death of both parents emotionally traumatized Siyun and Saika’s questions forced him from his self defecating rumination.
