Lily was brought up in a decent enough household; they almost always had enough to go around due to her father’s supply chain somewhere in Arcas, and her mother was always around growing up. She got access to a decent level of education, and made acquaintances rather well. Growing up, she tended to wander through the town and forest, and met Mio quite a few times, being neighbors. Her parents and his parents had known each other for a bit, being neighbors and all, but Lily and Mio developed a decently close friendship throughout the later couple of years, starting from funnily enough, a bunch of glowberries. When Lily was 14, however, she started getting more into health and nursing, taking up an internship for a local doctor in the town. After a couple years of that and interacting with other people, the doctor recommended Lily to an under-staffed clinic in another town that would greatly appreciate her help. At great reluctance, however, She accepted it, and headed out in search of the town.
