Duke always felt that Yala was different from other wood elves, and this feeling became even more obvious after coming here.
The wood elves on the deserted island also took Yala as their leader, evidently for some reason.
In response to Duke's question, Yala said without any concealment, "I have some royal blood of the wood elves in me."
This wasn't really a secret, and Duke could roughly guess it.
Wood elves with royal blood generally have better talents and are more outstanding in appearance.
Nowadays, there are almost no pure-blood royal wood elves born, only some of the former royal wood elves still survive, and they are kept like livestock.
Yala belongs to a royal bloodline that has fallen outside, and she isn't pure blooded, probably separated by several generations.
Duke also learned from Yala that a large number of wood elves still live in the Wood Elf Plane, and only those of "better quality" are sold off.
