Lalena, Arpeggio el
Summary
Lalena is the elder stepsister of Lelei la Lelena, dedicating her studies primarily to alchemy with a specific focus on mineralogy. Because this particular branch of alchemy is prohibitively expensive and poorly funded in her society, she is forced to endure a life of poverty. Although she harbors intense jealousy toward her sister’s accomplishments, she possesses a deep, underlying affection for her. This complex dynamic is evident in her actions, such as her willingness to knit new clothes for Lelei.
