Izmir was well aware of her grandparents' mysterious disappearance when they were just kids, alongside her sister, during the early days of the Elf Kingdom's growth. She also understood that the kingdom owed its existence to them.
For the longest time, Izmir believed her grandparents to be deceased, considering that no news of their whereabouts had ever surfaced. They had vanished without a trace, leaving no clues about their fate. So, when she finally saw them in person, it brought a mix of emotions - the longing for their presence and a tinge of resentment.
Why the resentment? Because their return couldn't have happened at a more inconvenient moment. They were unaware of the strained relationship between Izmir and her sister, Renatta, which had been simmering since the beginning. The two siblings had a tacit agreement to avoid the very situation they now found themselves in, as they didn't want their grandparents to discover the truth.
