Background / History

Elysia traveled alone as a child, visiting churches and describing distant snowy forests, flower fields, and mirror-like lakes to the children she met. Her independence and ability to handle danger allowed her to evade a priest who attempted to harm her. During this period, she befriended Xi Wang, regularly speaking with him and bringing him sweets. She later escaped the priest's pursuit and brought Father Enrique to help expose the church's circumstances. 6 7 92

After learning of Honkai, Elysia became involved with Moth to Fire. Though she initially could not share Xi Wang's special trait, she joined as a prominent sponsor, using her wealth, fame, charity performances, and disaster-relief work to support the organization and protect those close to her. 161

She eventually served as captain of Moth to Fire's Second Squad. Her record included subjugating the Second Herrscher alone and leading the operation against the Third Herrscher; she was also assigned to protect civilians during the Fourth Herrscher crisis. 21 23

Elysia voluntarily underwent Fusion Warrior surgery and survived. Later investigation revealed that she had no documented parents or birth certificate, unusually sparse medical records, and no clear recollection of a conventional surgery in Mobius's memory. She disclosed to Mei that she was a Herrscher born that way, while maintaining that she considered herself human. 36 74

As Xi Wang's mental state deteriorated, Elysia remained near him, took him out to distract him, and occasionally brought Eden to sing for him. When she had to leave for the Ark Project, she encased Xi Wang in pink crystals to stop his Hunting persona from harming others. 75
