Ilysa

Ilysa (イリサ, Irisa) is an ancient entity residing in the depths of 's great forests. Originally a girl of unremarkable stock, she resided in a coastal village on the vast western continent. However, Lyss would emerge from quiet mediocrity when she desecrated a statue erected in honor of the local goddess in the night. Divine punishment was swift; she would be turned into a massive, pony-sized wolf before the eyes of her villagers. Banishment from the village would soon follow, as she was forced to wander for months on end, driven away from each settlement or farm she happened upon. The goddess would eventually take pity on the girl, allowing Lyss's bubbling human emotions to bring forth her humanity once more in time to free a trapped hunter. The two would eventually wed, leading a quiet life as she would give rise to a new race. Since her husband's passing, Ilysa has turned to observing the proliferation of her progeny, sometimes walking among them.
