Growing up from a broken family, Lilly knew she wanted to live a life of independence to grow on her own. Thankful for her mother bringing her and her brother, Ambrose into this life, but as she grew older, she came to the conclusion that she can't personally bear to be in Meracydia much longer. With her parents divorced each other within their children's early childhood years, they were left them to be cared for by their beloved mother. Though, everything about their mother changed for the worse after the divorce.Lilly was the slightly older one by a couple of umbral suns and moons than her brother. For some reason, their mother became so bitter towards Lilly and favored Ambrose making him her favorite child. Lilly never understood why she always took this brunt force every single day. Her mother always put the blame for anything inconvenient onto Lilly just because she was the first born. She lived in agony and fear that her mother would snap far worse than she was already. The trauma got to her throughout the entirety of her childhood. Lilly and Ambrose had a close sibling relationship with each other. He was always there for her in times of need, especially when their mother was lashing out on Lilly over the minimalist of things. All of the missing love and care that her mother couldn't provide, she reciprocated it back to her dear brother. Ambrose looked up to her as a role model.As time passed by into their adult years, they started to drift apart from each other. They developed different ambitions and ways of life. Lilly still held onto this dream of wanting to live on her own far, far away from home. Ambrose was never fond of her plan because he thought he'd never be separated from his sister. He was hurt to know that she was moving to Old Sharlayan, but the communication was never shared with each other. Lilly didn't pay much mind to it since she was focused on her future more than anything.

Lilly moved to Old Sharlayan to pursue the arts of botany and a small hobby of fishing. She devoted the majority of her time as a Sharlayan student. You would practically see her in the library checking out books about agriculture, zoology, geology, natural remedies, flower arrangement, and etc. Her goal was to become a gleaner because it focused on the aspects she was interested in and she was able to work independently a lot of the time. Other than being a complete bookworm, she took up a little bit of work at the Rostra from time to time. Lilly had the simplest job of even more research, but she didn’t mind it at all. She hoped that continuing to take up tasks, she would get the gleaner job she looked forward to. Eventually, she did! Through connections of a close friend she knew that worked at the Forum.Her time as a gleaner was everything she hoped for – though, it didn't last very long. The role description was right up her alley, but the disrespect from her higher-ups wasn't worth it. This was when she realized that this is the true nature of being a gleaner; never being appreciated for the hard work of countless hours of dedications for research and preservation of nature. She loved having to work alone, but didn’t want to work for people that are entitled where they have a stick up their ass. In her free time, she would continue her “botanist” and “florist” ways by cultivating her own mini garden in her favorite spot: a secret gazebo near the Studium. This was her distraction from gleaning and putting all her energy into something she knows best to fill her mind with happiness. Thus, Lilly made the decision to go back to studying and expand her knowledge bank for her field.As Lilly was walking to the Studium one day, she overheard some adventurers talking about being a “scholar” and summoning the “fae.” Lilly was engrossed by this conversation, but had no clue as to why this interested her so much. Maybe it was her calling (Hear, Feel, Think…). Throughout the day, she found it difficult to keep her concentration at bay in her classes, but afterwards she automatically went straight to the library to pick up every single tome regarding this topic. To the point where she was seen taking many notes of her infatuation that she was excited to embark on a new adventure as soon as she was ready.A few months pass by and Lilly was determined to take the leap. So, she did and hopped on a boat to Limsa Lominsa to pursue this new chapter of life. And from then on, the rest is history!

Coming from a strained and troubled past, Lilly continues to remain kind and compassionate to others, especially to those in need of it. Though being the Warrior of Light, you’d think that it was her duty to put on that persona, but she is truly encompassed as someone with a warm heart. It’s through looking after her brother and never holding any bitterness towards her mother, despite what she’s dealt with – she will continue to treat everyone with goodwill.Despite this, a little naiveness and curiosity combined does find its implications within Lilly's mind. If it's not written or fully told right in front of her, she can believe everything right off the bat. Being blinded by seeing the good, she has to remind herself that not everyone would have the same moral mindset as her.That being said, Lilly sometimes tends to put herself in situations of self-doubt and overthinking. She wants to be loved, but feels like she can't provide it towards her potential partner. With her determination to bring light into this world, she's blinded by this that she hardly puts herself out there to find someone. Even being someone that is a hopeless romantic, when it comes to love, she can't help, but think of herself as undeserving for it. Maybe it's because of her strong-willed independence mindset, she's scared of letting that side of her go after growing as a person for as long as she can remember. Who knows, maybe there will be someone waiting for her to make that decision. What she does know is that she holds her friends, companions and family near and dear to her heart. If any ill intent comes for her loved ones, she won't let anyone get away with it.
