Ursa and Ikem were both actors at the troupe when they were young, and each received large roles in Love amongst the Dragons. However, the troupe lost both Ikem and Ursa when the latter was married off to Prince Ozai and left Hira'a, and Ikem left to go live in the Forgetful Valley. Several years after Ursa and Ikem left the troupe, Grandma Guchi retired from being the director and passed her position down to Noren.
