Katya was orphaned due to war, alone in her bassinet, unaware of casualties. Makuta of course was sent to that village. In the village, he had noticed young Katya, then looked back at the dead fox couple. Makuta took it upon himself to raise the girl. Since then, Katya has been living in the palace of gods for years. She is educated by Brisk, the god of wisdom. There are also some ghost children in the class, getting the opportunity to learn the things they couldn't. Katya also takes self defense training with Vulcantrus, and her Aunt Spinnerella taught her how to sew.
