**Song Mai Ri** is a young Laguz of the Hawk tribe and an extremely devoted retainer of Lady Sonata. Has the special ability to shapeshift to either the normal Laguz size or regular size hawk form.

Is recruitable once you show her a certain book after an alliance is established with the Hawk Tribe.

## Profile

### Past

Mai Ri often went to the Beorc regions without any problems thanks to her special ability. She quickly used her ability to gather information about the outside world instead, proving quite useful for her leader.

One day when she let her guard down, an arrow struck her right wing and she fell down to a courtyard. A young boy,

   along with his maid, treated her wound and took great care of her till the wound healed up. They were unaware of her true form as a Hawk Laguz and treated her like any other hawk, except the young boy. He treated her like his friend on equal terms and Mai Ri realized for the first time the good in Beorcs.

After a few weeks of the incident, bandits raided the mansion and cornered the household. Mai Ri then revealed herself and fended off the bandits to buy time for the household to escape. They were able to capture her instead and kept her for an unknown period of time until she was able to escape.

### Present

Mai Ri lives peacefully in Phoenicis and keeps doing her undercover jobs when needed by her leader. She often stays close to Lady Sonata and her friends to assure them her safety and wellbeing, since she worried them a lot during her long absent in the past. She's more lively and happy now.

## Recruitment

Simply talk with Mai Ri with the book "Feathers Across Time" in possession at any time after an alliance is established with the Hawk Tribe. She will tell you that she wishes to go outside and meet a certain Beorc. You have then the option to recruit her.

## Personality

Mai Ri looks always serious, distant and cold for most people. She has trust issues and is hostile towards other Laguz tribes and Beorcs, especially those from Daein. Mai Ri only lets her guard down when she's with her friends or fellow Laguz Hawks. She's actually quite lively, silly and full of troublesome shenanigans when she feels safe.

Extremely loyal and serious, able to keep a cool head when needed. Full of spirit and laughter otherwise.

Lady Sonata

Hye Mi
