For this girl had been born with hair as beautiful as the sun, and that out shined the moon. The color gifted was of that of the sunrise. The color of Sakura.
Though this thought to be a gift. In a cruel world as such it could be no such thing, due to the evil and jealousy that was confined in man's heart. People sought out this girl in hope to make the hair their own.
As such one day the queen was informed of such beauty she had to have it. So she sent the guards to obtain the child to bring it to the castle and be scalped for her hair. Yet the mother of this child, the loving mother, had heard of the evil woman's plans, and sent her child away to her grandmother in hopes for her safety.

So that day she made the child a cloak made of white velvet.
"You may go were you please, but never ever take that hood off!" The grandmother said.
The child so delighted ran outside and looked around the forest giddy at the unknown world. The child did just as her grandmother said and never took the hood off.
The child became a girl, and the girl became a young woman. She was now wise in the way of survival in the woods. She had made her own bows and made her own arrows. She could now take down any beast of the forest.

She told the man what had happened and trusted him enough to tell him of her hair. He seemed to understand. He spoke and said, "I will exchange a sword and one year of training; if you let me stay with you for on year in the cabin with meals for free." The young woman thought for a moment and agreed.
She and the man stayed in the cabin and trained together for one year. They became good friends, and at the end of that year he told her of her own story, of who killed her mother and who ordered it. This enraged the woman, and she sought for her revenge.
