Lilia, an ally to Halia, is a druidic nymph known as a dryad. Grateful for being rescued by Halia, she feels indebted and decides to assist Halia in escaping from Artemis's city, leading her to Lilia's village to offer a token of gratitude.

Lilia's main ability lies in her power to heal, harnessing the essence of nature to mend both humans and animals, forming a special bond with the creatures of the forest. As an immortal being, she exhibits a humanoid appearance, with pointed ears that add to her enchanting allure. Her village is a picturesque haven, with houses nestled among the oak trees, and the dryads are described as beautiful, joyful beings, exuding grace and agility.

Lilia's village, being situated near Artemis's realm, has always held a fascination for Chinese mythology, often forging connections with travelers passing through the region. Growing up, Lilia yearned to explore that exotic world. Upon reaching adulthood, she embarked on a journey to China, where she encountered a herd of Long Ma near the border. The leader of the Long Ma was wounded, and Lilia used her knowledge of healing herbs to nurse him back to health. In gratitude, the Long Ma leader returned with her to her homeland, followed by his herd.

Personality

Unlike most dryads, who tend to be reclusive and distant from men, Lilia is compassionate and altruistic, always seeking the well-being of others. Unaware of the consequences of her actions, she often unintentionally stumbles into minor troubles. Lilia abhors any act of cruelty or malice, driven by her inherently kind nature.

History

Insecurity plagues Lilia's mind, eroding her self-confidence, causing her to flee or freeze in the face of adversity. As she grew older, her friendship with Artemis blossomed into a sisterly bond, often inseparable. Artemis placed absolute trust in Lilia. However, during Artemis's encounter with Japetus, Lilia fled in fear, leaving Artemis unprotected. Enraged, the goddess castigated and imprisoned Lilia in the dungeons, condemning her to feel the weight of her betrayal for eternity, never to forget her fear.
