I tried expanding on a backstory I wrote by writing a night in the life in first person. Here is the first backstory. I wrote a while ago.

Sierra Everton was the only child of wealthy gentleman John Everton and his wife, Sidonia. From the moment she was born, Sierra’s parents placed high expectations of her to be a prim and proper gentleman’s daughter. She had to act and behave a certain way. Doing anything else was greatly frowned upon. Sierra came to greatly resent her parents for the expectations they placed upon her. They had hopes that she would grow up and marry a squire or another man of note.

Nevertheless, Sierra was a tomboy who would not allow herself to be tamed by her parents' expectations. At age nine, she insisted on being trained in archery. She persisted until her father finally gave in. Sierra dedicated herself to frequent practices with her instructor. Archery was the one joy in her life where she could finally be herself. In her spare time, when she was not being forced into other duties, Sierra would carefully sneak up on hares and birds on the family estate and shoot them with her bow.

At age twelve, Sierra finally decided that she had had enough of her parents' overbearing grasp on her. She ran away. Sierra grabbed her bow, some traveling clothes and set off.

She eventually made her way to Myrefall, the capital of the County of Cavelle. There Sierra took up residence in one of the city’s parks. Many times the town guard tried to remove her but she was always able to slip away.
