Melian is a royal, specifically the princess and soon to be heir of Firon. She’s outspoken and bold, demanding respect as her father does. The family is cold but tolerates each other. Melian is quite the reckless teen but her parents insist on her taking the throne though she may not want it. She often finds herself conflicted between taking the throne for the good of Firon and for her sick grandmother whom she’s very close with, and following the dream she’s had since she was a child of being an adventurer and looking for the hidden cities she’d read about in so many books. Her grandmother wants her to take charge of the kingdom, believing she will grow into the responsibility of being queen. Melian, soft towards the gentle elder, doesn’t want to disappoint her but her heart will eventually find its way to adventure after an argument with the grandmother who soon passes. Melian will find out later and will have difficulty dealing with the guilt of the previous argument.
