## Orphanage

### House E

Although she'll be hardpressed to admit it, she truly loves her siblings and looks up to them, even Toma.

#### Aveal Turniga

Mona and Aveal's relationship is somewhat strained, but she gets along with Aveal for the most part. Though she doesn't admit to it, she looks up to Aveal as a role model. In fact, she views her as borderline *perfect* and believes she's nowhere as good as her. Although Aveal can be hard on Mona and tries to get her out of her mischievous ways, she in no way wants to change Mona, she just wants her to be more considerate.

The two very much love each other, with Aveal being far more affectionate and doting towards her younger sibling. Aveal constantly praises Mona for he strength, speed and sense of humor, although usually not to her face. Much of Mona's brooding behavior comes from her inferiority complex, which is partly due to Aveal's ability to make nearly anyone like her and how she's so disliked and bad in comparison. Once Aveal learns of this, the two have a heart to heart and become closer because of it.

When Mona and Shina were being hounded by Erzo while the to were weakened, Mona's 'last words' was how she thought Shina and Aveal were the best big sisters ever and how much she loved her family. Thankfully the two were rescued by Toma and Aveal, who heard it all, much to Mona's embarrassment. This confrontation ended with Toma and Aveal mentioning how much they cared about Mona and how special she is.

As Mona grew up, she became more easy going and her true good-natured spirit shined through to her peers. As such, she gained a closer, friendlier relationship with Aveal and the two would continue to spend lots of time with each other, even in their married lives.

#### Toma Jawol

Mona has a special bond with Toma that she doesn't share with her sisters. Unlike her sisters, Mona actually grew up side by side Toma and thus have a very close relationship. Mona finds it easier to talk to Toma

## Underlings

### Jovi Froi

Jovi is Mona's apprentice blacksmith. While hard on him during his training, she's kind and affectionate towards him elsewhere. Though she'll seldom admit it, she's very proud of him and how far he's gone. The two share an odd friendship, and when Jovi's parents had to attend a cross-continent meeting, they entrusted him into her care. She does care about the boy and thinks of him like a nephew of sorts. Although she does sincerely love him, she still works him hard and **will not** take "good enough". Sometimes she overworks him, leaving him exhausted, or worse, injuring herself, and she does usually give a heartfelt apology.

Regardless of her tough demeanor towards him, Jovi has nothing but respect for Mona and views her as a great friend as well as a mentor. In fact, he considers her one of his few friends and sometimes tries to include her into his activities, which Mona is usually okay with attending. When Mona had to fight in the *Orion Invasion*, she thought of Jovi among the people she had to protect in the world. During the *Abstract Wars*, Jovi matures and takes up arms to protect Nazir from invaders, which filled Mona with shock, worry but among all else, pride.
