"They are still there- I can hear them, advising me in battle. My family still speaks into my heart..."

While being known as "crazy" in her village because of her resistance against the Lost Foxes and allying with Andi Newleaf, she actually is a smart warrior. Though she does talk to herself a lot, hearing voices in her head that she believes are her family. She lost her parents when she was younger, around 12. after that, she took care of her siblings. However, they were taken when she was nearly caught. Iona often blames herself because she thought she led the Lost Foxes to them. Iona never was quite the same after their deaths, talking to herself and often brooding. She also lost one of her wings in that battle. However, she wanted revenge for their deaths and allied herself with Andi Newleaf to fight against them.
