Lilia Facts Part 3: Lilia's Past (pt3)
Lilia’s dream is stressful for Silver: Lilia says he has no son and Baul opposes the group joining them.
Lilia explains “If they ever slow us down, we can just ditch them. Not like we're responsible for their well-being.”
Grim is surprised by how Lilia from 400 years in the past looks so similar to Lilia in the present day and Silver says, “While he may look the same visually, he's very different from the father I know. I never really knew him at all, did I…?”
During their journey to the enemy stronghold Lilia uses Silver as bait for enemy invaders, kicking him into their path with no explanation.
When Silver looks unhappy after the fact Lilia says, "Sympathizing with your own kind? Or do you just hate underhanded tactics? Never mind, I don't actually care. Point is, if you're staying with us, you'd better make yourself useful.”
Silver reflects, “It's definitely my father I'm seeing. But he's so different from the father I know…”
Lilia comments on the taciturn Silver, wondering what manner of parent could raise a child so quiet. Silver says that he was raised by “a bright, boisterous father. He's strict but kind. I'm proud to be his son.”
During their adventure Silver begins to doubt himself, wondering if Lilia and Malleus could both achieve happiness if he were to stay in the dream.
Lilia tells Silver that he should go home, as he has no reason to involve himself any further.
Silver responds, “I have reason enough! After all, I'm your…” but goes quiet (similar to Lilia himself stopping short of calling Silver his son during Halloween).
Once the group reaches their destination Lilia suffers a grave injury in order to save Silver from harm, but when asked why, he cannot explain, saying, “when I saw Silver in danger, my body sprung into action.”
Baul responds, “That's ridiculous! You swore your life and loyalty to Lady Maleanor!,” but Silver is moved by the realization that even in a dream Lilia still recognizes him.
Silver helps Lilia and Baur escape by calling for woodland creatures.
Lilia says that half-baked ideas like that are why he hates kids, but then asks Silver to provide him support as they fight their way free, and compliments both Sebek and Silver once they safely escape.
