She was originally a Ralian Galanini goddess at the dawn, supported Nysalor in the first age, and made contact with the Dara Happan gods of light at that time (and picked up some ideas), and eventually made it to Prax via the backblocks of Peloria (Garsting, I think?). The Shield Maidens are an obvious Dara Happan influence.
I believe their original reason for heading to Prax was that they were seeking a new source of unicorns.
