Background / History

Alice is Lord Edward's daughter and a prominent figure in Flower Territory. While inspecting Wheat Town, she took interest in Lin Lei after learning that he had killed a Silver-rank Earth Demon Bear. She proposed a sparring match between him and her guard captain, Aier: if Lin Lei won, she would purchase the carcass and appoint him a centurion under her father. 4

After Lin Lei defeated Aier, Alice honored the agreement despite leaving Wheat Town for further inspections. She had the payment and Centurion token delivered to him, and later recommended him to the City Defense Department in Flower Territory. 5 10

During the banquet celebrating her return from inspecting sixteen territories, Alice appeared alongside Edward as the central guest of honor. 12 15 Soon afterward, she warned Edward that the Shadow Council and its banshee agents were preparing a coup. When Edward hesitated because much of the territory had already been charmed, Alice resolved to act against the threat. 16

Alice organized Flower Territory's resistance against the Shadow Council, the Burning Legion's minions, and the Scourge Legion's Curse Cult. She summoned Lin Lei to defend the inner court, entrusted him with its defense, and rewarded his assistance with 10,000 gold coins. 19 20 During the subsequent battle, she fought directly with magic and coordinated with Yaduo De and the arriving Black Armor Knights. 22 23

After the battle, Alice personally stabilized Edward's condition with Hydrotherapy after he was poisoned and gravely injured in the fighting at Crouching Dragon Ravine. She also recognized the wider danger posed by orc activity in the southern Storm Kingdom. 23

Later, Alice remained connected to Lin Lei and Crouching Dragon Ravine: she loaned him Flower Territory troops for his procurement mission and attended his wedding to Aierlan. 32 46 She subsequently trained in water magic under Aierlan's guidance. 47 48

Appearance

Alice is described as a young and beautiful woman with notably beautiful eyes similar to those of her cousin, Aierlan. 4 16

• Initially wore luxurious silk robes appropriate to her position at the Lord's Mansion. 20
• During the defense of Flower Territory, she replaced those robes with armor and was compared to a heroic female general. 20
• Her eyes were bloodshot and tired while coordinating the territory's defense. 20

Personality

Alice is observant and analytical. During Lin Lei's spar with Aier, she correctly noted that Lin Lei's steady footwork meant he had not yet been defeated, even while others believed the fight was over. 5

She is also reliable in matters of duty. She fulfilled her promised payment and appointment for Lin Lei after his victory, even though she had already departed Wheat Town. 5 Her early recognition of Lin Lei's potential became the basis of his position in Flower Territory. 4 10 12

When Flower Territory faced infiltration and rebellion, Alice showed decisiveness that Edward lacked. She pressed him to act against the charmed conspirators and ultimately prepared to fight rather than permit the territory to be destroyed from within. 16 20

Alice is persistent in her magical studies. Although initially disappointed by her failed attempt to summon a water elemental and by Aierlan's assessment that she was not yet ready to help Lin Lei, she regained her determination to improve. 47 48
