Lamina Loh

## About

Lamina Loh held a strong place of significance in Lunaby’s history. Growing up in the small village of Kaet, located in the north of Skaster, she had a very humble upbringing. Being a fairy, Lamina spent much of her early life dedicated to helping those in need, and keeping the crops among the dwindling village healthy. Her mother and father were farmers, relying on marketing their goods as a way of earning a living. The Lohs were not, by any means, comfortable in their living environment. Oftentimes, they were drowning in poverty. Lamina’s parents made sure she was cared for, and tended to first – making sure she always had what she needed, even if they went without. Such outlooks seemed to drift onto Lamina as she grew older, and she had earned a reputation as one of the most selfless people in Kaet, and in Skaster. Her kindness attracted the likes of many men, those of which demanded to marry her as soon as the sun would rise. However, Lamina had always strayed from the concept of marrying a man, or really – marrying at all. She had continued to wear this outlook into her late teens, all the while befriending a Councilor’s viceroy, *Quila Gadriala*. Despite Quila being a witch, Lamina seemed to develop feelings for her rather quickly. All of her previous notions that romance and marriage were not for her seemed to dwindle into nothing, and the feeling very quickly became prominent on Quila’s end as well. The two of them hid their love for one another, stealing a kiss when Quila had business in Skaster, or its surrounding regions. When whispers of war slipped into the streets of Kaet, Lamina was nineteen years old. She soon left the small town that had forever been her home, fleeting to Ghathens. There, she met with Quila, and the two of them discussed their concerns over chalices of tea. During the war, when Quila reigned high as *The Pheradites’* leader, Lamina held a strong reputation as well. Due to her kindness and charitable habits, she worked as a medic to those within their people. Determined to always help those in need, she would often fling herself onto an open battlefield to assist those who were too injured to move. *The Red Bath of Daio* would remain a prominent example of that, to which she aided and pulled a recorded 137 people from the mass havoc. Unfortunately, she never got the chance to fully celebrate this victory, as she had been captured and taken as prisoner by *Royalists* shortly after. Only halfway into the war, Lamina's fate had been decided. After her capture at The Red Bath of Daio, she was then relentlessly tortured by those of her Royalist captors due to being the lover of their deemed “traitor”, Quila. Lamina’s suffering would end within weeks, as she was then beheaded on May 8th, 1342. Her head and headless body was neatly wrapped and sent to The Pheradites’, though Quila had been the target of such wickedness. After her death, Lamina’s remains were buried in a small, unmarked grave. Quila refused to let anyone accompany her when burying Lamina, as she wanted her to rest peacefully without the possibility of her grave being destroyed by others. To this day, Lamina Loh’s grave has never been found, but speculations claim that it is somewhere near her home village.
