Lilac is Carol's best friend, and, as of a few minutes before the story's start, the Hero of Avalice. However, she's greatly struggling with recovering from the events of the battle. Eventually, in a final act of desperate heroics, she mysteriously disappears off the face of the planet. Nobody knows what became of her, but Carol is determined to bring her home.
