History
"Up until now I've always thought somehow I could stop him, but....It looks impossible now...."

- Jillia Blight

Jillia Blight, the final Queen of the Highland Kingdom, exuded a benevolent and composed demeanor, serving as a stark contrast to her half-brother, the infamous "Mad Prince," Luca Blight. The differences between the siblings gave rise to speculations about their true relation; however, records affirm that they were indeed half-siblings, sharing the same mother.

Throughout the tumultuous events of the Dunan Unification War, Jillia witnessed the devastating consequences of Luca's unrestrained rampages, which left her feeling apprehensive and powerless to challenge his authority. During the course of the conflict, she found herself entangled in a tragic scheme orchestrated by both Luca and Jowy Atreides, to whom she was eventually betrothed.

The sinister plan aimed to assassinate King Agares, further deepening the complexities of the war. With the death of Agares and the subsequent death of Luca soon after, Jillia would ascend to the position of Queen of Highland, with her bethrowed, Jowy, becoming King at the moment of their marriage.

Despite the heart-wrenching knowledge that Jowy was employing her as a pawn to pursue his ambitions, Jillia's unwavering love for him persisted throughout the war. As the conflict drew to a close, Jowy made the difficult decision to send Jillia away, ensuring her safety in the Holy Kingdom of Harmonia as he pursued his destiny. Jillia would use their last meeting to confess her full, true love for Jowy, despite everything he had done.

Accompanied by Pilika, Jillia settled in a rural residence within Harmonia's bounds, where she ever patiently awaited Jowy's eventual return.
