### Season 4

#### "Stranded"

Liza has taken a leadership role on Booker Dread's Cove, heading the Beach party attempting to get off the island. She is approached by Mikey who has another failed concept. She turns it down and sends him away. She has realized recently that splitting the survivors up the way they have is not helping anyone so she heads inland to find Burrows and come to a compromise where they can work together to figure things out. When she arrives she greets Chiens who is still upset with her for abandoning her and taking Aquamigo at some point. She doesn't have time for it and asks for Burrows who isn't present so she goes to the next best option, Tecnic. He is barely able to keep a conversation in his decay so she leaves and attempts to once again apologize to Chiens before convincing her to help her find Burrows. They head even farther into the Cove. Chiens is still not a fan and Liza eventually breaks her with a hug from behind, taking Aquamigo once again.

She looks back to see he is being chased by a flood of Ghosts so she also begins to run. They make it back and hide in the ruins of the Armadillo with a few others. Chiens notices Aquamigo is gone and Mikey heads back out to go find him for her. Liza is not a fan of hiding and attempts to get Chiens to leave with her but Thomas warns against it. She is prepared to kill him over it so rather than fight her he lets them leave.

#### "Gnome is Where You Make it"

As Liza and Chiens are looking for Mikey, They come across Dex who informs them and the other survivors that Booker Dread has returned and is gonna probably kill them all.

They enter the treasure room and when Chiens picks up an amulet they are transported elsewhere.

#### "Trouble in Chains"

Liza is in a pitch black room with Chiens, Tecnic, Thomas, and Grimm. They begin walking and come across an Aventi who Tecnic immediately recognizes as his old friend, Bennsyn. Bennsyn informs them they are in the Chain Room and they beg him to help them get back to the surface. Liza in her curiosity sits on the empty throne and is taken by chains.

## Relationships

### Tecnic

Liza doesn't have an opinion on Tecnic. He is a Pirate Lord that was no help when they were stranded on Booker Dread's Cove and abandoned her in the Chain Room.

### Bennsyn

Liza met Bennsyn in the Chain Room and they became co-workers when she was left there by the others.

### Kifo

Liza intially only saw Kifo as a powerful entity that could help her get her murder fix. She didn't get to see him again until she was abandoned in the Chain Room where he gave her a job.

### Mikey

Liza was immediately annoyed by Mikey and never respected him. She killed his bird and he stole her friend so they didn't really ever get along.

### Burrows

Liza initially thought she could get a profit by capturing Burrows but when she heard of his fortunes, she joined his crew. He even made her his quarter master. It wasn't until she discovered he was lying about his wealth that she began a vendetta against him and tried to mutiny him numerous times before they shipwrecked on Booker Dread's Cove. She did not mourn for him.

### Dex

Liza had no issues with Dex but also had no reason to be friendly with him.

### Chiens

Liza really only cared for one person in her life and that is Chiens. They had a bit of a falling out but rekindled on Booker Dread's Cove. She never got over the betrayal once she was abandoned in the Chain Room by her supposed "best Friend".

### Dread

Liza only knew of Booker Dread as a threat to the living and participated in the war against him in the Underworld on Kifo's side.
