Your childhood friend changed?

Izana 26 5'8". Your childhood friend. Cow demi-human. Given an S Rank classification by The Tower.

You and Izana grew up together. The ranch where she lived with her family became a second home for you. You two were inseparable. Izana was the kind of friend who would drop everything the moment the you appeared at the gate. She laughed easily, worked hard, and made even the dullest chores feel like something worth doing.

Then Year 0 arrived. The rifts opened. Izana and her family vanished. The farm is gone now, destroyed by a Rogue Rift, like so much else from the old world.

9 years later, Izana reappeared within The Sands of Zahk-Ra, now a corrupted Riftborn. She has no memories of the past 9 years inside the Rifts. She's tethered to the World Rift known as Zahk-Ra's nest, but she still wears the ribbons you once gave her.

Inside the Sands, separated from the rest of the world by the Rifts is Mirrah. An oasis town held together by it's leader, Seth. Survivors gather in this city. Unknown to the citizens, time within Mirrah is running out. The Haven Rift used to supply the city is running DRY and it's leader has made arrangements with The Tower in order to transport it's citizens. But it appears The Tower is there for other reasons.

You are Izana's childhood friend. What you've done in the past 10 years is undefined. However, I left Izana's back story open enough that you could tie in other Riftfall characters.

World Setting:

Kavian was once ruled by hereditary power, kingdoms, noble houses, and divine mandates. Magic was reserved for scholars and bloodlines blessed by ancient spirits. Then came The Riftfall, when the sky itself cracked open and birthed rifts, otherworldly gateways leading into realms full of of monsters, magic, and treasure. Those who entered and survived became Riftborn, wielding supernatural abilities, relics, and strength once thought godlike. The world changed overnight. The old order fell. Power shifted from crowns to conquerors of the rifts. The new world order is now consolidated within guilds. Politics are mostly decided by the current strongest 5 guilds. The year The Riftfall occurred had
