Lily Build Guide — Morimens

Yearning for an entity she calls "Mommy", this girl obediently follows the commands of her "Master". Her true name lost to the world, she is now known only by the form she inhabits: a delicate white filament, reminiscent of a lily, blooming at the center of a giant black eyeball made of sludge. Hence, they named her Lily.

When Erica tried to pull the records on Lily Oswood, she returned eighty-one error alerts. Lily was forgotten by the world once; her birth certificate and her medical files have all rotted into a handful of black silt. We can still observe the shape of her Silvercore with specialized instruments: fine and curling, like several strands of hair twisted together—more precisely, like an infant's downy hair. One point deserves particular attention. Lily always shows an unusual attachment to her Linker. Presenting yourself as her "mother," rather than as a "companion" or a "master," will likely bring you close to her much faster.

The aftereffects of an incomplete Awakening, along with the psychological shock of being handed to a new Linker, have left Lily's personality and mind noticeably regressed. Everyone on campus has noticed how little she speaks. Apart from trailing after the Keeper and the Awakener Lotan, Lily is almost never seen around the university on her own. She doesn't come to class, and she doesn't join the younger Awakeners' games. When she isn't deployed, she simply waits in her dorm, quietly, for orders. Her window looks straight out onto the Keygrave behind the campus. At sunset she stands there, staring out at the graves under that dull yellow light. The silver-key headstones draw long, thin shadows in the low sun, and Lily at the window is every bit as silent as they are.

"Mommy, Mommy, I didn't cry when I got the shot!" "You're so brave!" "Because I knew Mommy was coming back! It didn't hurt at all!" ... "Master, give me an order." "Lie down on the operating table; the operation will start in fifteen minutes. Did you take your medicine on time?" "I did, Master." "I'll cut you here. It doesn't hurt, right?" "... It doesn't hurt, Master."

Better if she had never woken at all. Those who have sunk into the abyss were never meant to open their eyes to the blazing sun. She was supposed to be numb experimental material, someone the world had already buried—no capacity for pain, no hunger to be loved. Her mother could not let her go, and that made a tragedy of her entire life. Lily is still lost in the same question: whether she ought to submit to what the world has arranged for her. Perhaps one day someone who defies fate will give her the answer.

The small soul, which should have been lost to the river of history, relied on her mother's wish, the abundant spiritual energy from establishing the magic circle with @1@2@1, and the fusion with the giant creature frozen beneath Elworth, resurrecting as the monster "Lily". Due to incomplete awakening, Lily at the beginning had no consciousness, merely a combat doll that obeyed orders. Francis Oswood, a member of the Sculptors' Association, used Lily as a prototype to conduct illegal experiments lasting @2 years. From Francis's diary, it was known that Lily's state back then was extremely unstable, often going out of control and causing localized destruction, which forced Francis to frequently change residences. With the intake of the gnosis elixir and the implantation of the silver chip, Lily regained her perception and some memories on an undocumented day. After some twists and turns, Francis took over the almost bankrupt Lai Hospital and transformed it into a testing ground. During the "Hellhound" incident in Lai Town No. L-776, her mother, Francis Oswood, was trapped in her self-created anomalous dimension and lost contact.
