==Biography==
Leeza finds Adol after he fell as a result of Gadis chopping down a bridge he crossed. She ties his wounded leg with her bandana before leaving. He catches up with her by a tree where they introduce each other. She informs him that Laparo Village is not far from this location. Realizing he is still hurt from the fall, she asks him to rest on her favorite hill where he is at. She shows him how the beautiful forest is. She then heads back from the hill. When Adol meets her father Schultz at the village, the father tells him he cannot let the villagers know where his daughter is as it’s a secret for himself, his daughter, and Mayor Melchia.
At the dangerous Storm Sanctuary, Leeza runs into him while escaping a tentacle monster. After Adol slays the beast, Leeza thanks him for helping her. When the bandana she covered Adol’s wound falls to the floor, she is glad he recovered and asks why Adol came. He explains he came to save her. She then heads into the doorway that was shut only to get caught by the Clan of Darkness. Gruda demands the Alter and Fire magic be surrendered to him, threatening to kill Leeza if Adol does not comply.
Adol lets Gadis take the wands, but Gruda does not honor his deal and tries to kill Leeza anyway when Duren intervenes, calling that action an act of cowardice and stabs Gruda by throwing a knife, allowing Leeza to escape. Gruda survives the stabbing and orders Gadis and Bami that they must go. Leeza apologizes to Adol for giving the Clan of Darkness that chance to steal his wands.
Adol pursues the trio while Duren protects Leeza. Upon seeing Eldeel again, the Eldeen explains to her that she should not be here. After Eldeel shows off the Black Pearl, a.k.a. The speaking stone, and explains its power. He extracts its power, wounds Adol, and destroys the room.
Duren and Leeza take Adol back to her home to recover from his injuries. When Adol recovers, Leeza explains that Duren went off to trail his former comrades. Her father thanks him for saving Leeza and believes he could save Celceta. He tells Adol their secret regarding the Eldeen from the sacred district. Leeza visited the sacred district. She explains that Eldeel used to be kind hearted and glad to see her.
However, something about Eldeel changed and she wasn’t able to see him lately. Her father explains the Clan of Darkness might have poisoned his mind. Leeza begs Adol to stop the clan and save all of Celceta. When she sees her Earth Charm on Adol’s person, she explains he is alive because of it as it protects him from lightning. She tells him to keep it as the thunderclouds over the sanctuary vanished.
Later when Adol comes to stop Eldeel from restoring the Mask of the Sun, he finds him planning to use Leeza as a human sacrifice to carry this out. Bami proceeds to take on Adol to prevent his interference. However, Adol bests her and reclaims the Cleria Armor. Despite this, Eldeel summons the capital of Celceta from beneath the ground. Just as he was about to sacrifice Leeza, he gets fatally stabbed from behind by Gruda after he serves his purpose. Gruda was plotting to use the Mask of the Son to revive his clan’s true leader, Arem. He then proceeds to take the mask.
The dying Eldeel frees Leeza and asks her to forgive him. Just then, the spirits of the five disciples appear one by one, lamenting that the seal that they’ve spent the 700 years guarding has broken. They can condemn Eldeel for his actions, but it is never a solution for what is going to happen, the only option left since Arem is being resurrected is to destroy the Mask of the Sun forever. 
In order to do this, Adol must acquire the El Doran magic. They proceed to take Eldeel to where his people are so that he will never be alone again. Leeza realizes Eldeel was alone his whole life and she would no longer touch his heart until the end. They then return to Laparo Village. When Adol heads to the ancient city, she asks Adol not to get hurt before parting ways.
Following Arem’s demise, Leeza watches alongside Dogi and Karna as the ancient capital collapses. When Adol shows up next to them after Lefance warped him out of the collapsing capital, she makes a remark on how everything is over now. But then says that there is now a new beginning as her people are now free from the curse of the past.
After talking with Karna at the village, Leeza asks Adol to visit Celceta again someday and she will never forget him.
