Background
Diana was one of four witches who used Susie’s Shelter as their base before it became associated with the Golden Plains Adventurer Guild. When Susie proposed that the group level up to acquire Soul Drain, Diana suggested a more efficient alternative: converting the skill into magic knowledge scrolls so witches could learn it without the same leveling burden. The proposal was limited by the immense material and production costs of such scrolls. 267
She later developed a Temporary Departure Scroll and personally tested it at Lan Qingyou’s Witch Habitat. Its successful activation established a Shelter in the Witch Forest, allowing Diana to share the Shelter with Lan Qingyou. 297
Personality
Diana is an inquisitive researcher with a practical, strategic mind. Her curiosity is especially apparent when encountering unfamiliar magical technology, urban-development possibilities, and new forms of transportation or magic. 297 299 356
As an administrator, she favors planning, delegation, and gathering sufficient intelligence before acting. During the early stages of the invasion of the Land of Abandonment, she prioritized stability and cautioned against escalating matters before identifying the force behind the attacks. 449
The prolonged Abandoned War hardened her outlook. After months of defending the Perching Giant Tree and witnessing the losses suffered by her people, she rejected her former conciliatory approach and committed herself to retaliation against those who targeted witches. 460
Despite her usual authority, Diana relaxes around Lan Qingyou and is more openly reliant on her Patriarch’s presence. 692

Story Role / Major Arcs
Development of the Land of Abandonment
Diana drafted a comprehensive development plan for the Land of Abandonment: establish a Witch Academy, develop the Abandoned Ruins and coast, recruit students, organize districts, and expand the Witch Forest through layered Magic Arrays. Lan Qingyou entrusted her with city planning, reconstruction, and harbor affairs. 299
She formalized Typhon’s administration by nominating department heads and founding the Patrol Squad to address high-level monsters and outside disturbances. She also secured Lan Qingyou’s appointment as the Witch Academy’s honorary principal and requested introductory textbooks on alchemy, pharmacology, and Magic Puppet production. 313 314
Typhon and High Tower Expansion
Diana helped name the Witch Race’s capital, proposing symbols associated with monsters and destruction before Lan Qingyou chose the name Typhon. The World Will subsequently recognized it as the first official city on the Karim Continent. 314
She organized the large-scale Typhon auction, used it to attract smaller tribes, and managed the resulting increase in trade and population. 321 347
Witch Hunts and the Abandoned War
After receiving reports that witches were being hunted for their blood, Diana convened the administrators, ordered scattered witches not to travel alone, directed the Witch Corps to strengthen defenses, and sought Lilith’s assistance in analyzing witch blood. 444 445
When the Feathered Race and Little People Race invaded, Diana ordered witches to gather at the Central Habitat or nearby Shelters, prohibited contact with unevolved Transmigrators, and initiated measures to secure or destroy valuable resources rather than let them fall into enemy hands. 449
The struggle for the Perching Giant Tree lasted eight months. Once the invaders abruptly withdrew, Diana ordered their abandoned corpses burned and began organizing a retaliatory sweep to identify every participant and recover information on stolen Magic Eyes. 460
Counterattack and Recovery
Diana continued coordinating the Witch Race’s retaliation after the war, adopting a policy of locating and eliminating invaders and traitors regardless of who might stand behind them. 472
She received and organized research data on resurrection magic, including theory, clinical records, and post-operation observations, for Lan Qingyou’s review. 472
When Lan Qingyou learned that Demon Hunters used Magic Eyes taken from fallen witches, Diana vowed to recover the dead witches’ remains and supported plans to retaliate through curse magic and the mass production of Magic Books. 486 488
Eureka and the New Continent
As Chief Executive of Flying City Eureka, Diana managed the city’s early operational issues, including cases of magic intoxication caused by its high-altitude magic concentration. 513
During Lan Qingyou’s century-long disappearance, Diana directed the Black Witches’ migration toward the New Continent in order to search for their missing Patriarch. She also arranged for orphans and slaves from Storm Island to be brought back and cultivated as witches. 1074 1076
After Lan Qingyou returned, Diana was entrusted with managing the public response to Eureka’s transformation into a Pure Magic Zone following the activation of Lan Qingyou’s level-ten Shelter. 1079

Trivia
