Xiao Yue was born as the youngest daughter of the Tribe Chief's youngest brother. She was technically a princess but since she was the youngest of all her cousins, and was not born to the Tribe Chief directly, many people forgot about her status.
Her parents were humble people who never flaunted their bloodline. They also never bothered to remind their children to stand out among the other children. Xiao Yue grew up rolling in the mud with the other children from the tribe, no one ever called her princess.
Although Xiao Yue's father was more interested in doing common folk jobs such as carpentry, hunting, or farming, he was often summoned by his brother, the Tribe Chief, to discuss various problems at hand. When he came back home, he would share the latest news with his wife over dinner. Xiao Yue and her brother who were sitting down for dinner also got to hear about it.
