Thyki was born and raised in Ch'zzrym. Belonging to one of the noble houses, they were not an overly powerful House, but held respect in their own right. She was the third daughter and fourth born child of the Matron. Being in such a position it was unlikely she would take over the house and showing some promise in using prayers to gain power she was sent to live with the priestesses in a temple dedicated to the lost goddess Yenko.

She believes she went to live with them when she was two decades old, maybe a bit older. The years in the deep had begun to meld together. Regardless, she spent further decades learning to calm her mind allowing herself to be more open to the divine and being a vessel for such power. The priestesses were not forgiving in their instruction and fault was not allowed. It was assumed she would follow in their stead caring for the temple continuing the worship of Yenko. While the time in the priestesses care was not an enjoyable one, she felt that without such an education, she would never know or understand the things she did in her lifetime. Having that experience as balance to others she was able to fully appreciate the friendships she made and the hardships that are necessary to endure for a whole being.

Many decades into her instruction she began having dreams unlike anything before. They began almost foggy, she sensed there was a struggle but could not discern who or where. Gradually, they became more and more vivid to the point where she felt she was actually experiencing the events rather than just dreaming of them. The dream was of the fall of her house. At the time it was very confusing for her, she did not understand the meaning, nor the reality of the situation.

Each house within the structure of Ch'zzrym relies on the balance within and without to maintain it. What she did not see at the time was that while she had been away the balance of her house had been disrupted. Her elder brother and eldest sister conspired to kill their mother, the Matron and take over the house and its power.

They succeeded in her murder, but unlike the Matron, they were unable to maintain the balance of the house within a great battle broke out among the servants and children loyal to her mother and those tranfixed by her elder siblings. Upon seeing the disruption of society the other houses steped in to destroy what was left of hers after the battles.

She was still unaware such events were actually happening, but after the house fell the dream changed. She saw a house built from playing cards, it swayed gently in a breeze. But one card in the middle would twitch slightly and bring the entire structure down.

But after seeing the visions and having this further dream, she knew she could not devote her soul to Yenko and care for a Temple beneath the earth. She felt she was meant to see the events as a lesson. The lesson being, the Weaver had a desire for her, for us all really. But she felt her purpose was to aid in maintaining the balance of the Tapestry. So she became devoted wholy to the Weaver to follow the Path She had set before her, and to do as Her will commands. She felt she had been directed to be a keeper of the Tapestry, a keeper of its balance. To maintain it and keep life from stagnation as her kin has done before.

She has never mentioned the true name of her house before (mainly due to the fact I never came up with one) and instead refers to it as the House of Fallen Cards in reference to the final vision she had.
