THE MYTH —

Nothing remains of Lilith’s House, at least on paper. Following her betrayal and murder of the Duke, her House was stripped of all its property and power. Lilith, herself, is an enigmatic figure. Recovered documents show that she was raised as a man, but once her family sided with the ruler of Nephilim, she grew to pursue what, by modern standards, would be a trans identity. In many ways, she grew to be an emblem of the freedom offered to all the Nephi, especially beside the Duke. Together, they were symbolic of the very morality that Nephilim was founded upon. Their presence as a unit rallied many an army and inspired a morale boost amongst troops.

The murder of her husband is subject to debate by all scholars. Archaic gossip has muddied the waters on what actually happened to the Duke, and with no other members of the Round Table or close family members leaving behind any account of it, no one knows why Lilith would strike Samael. Her spirit was fortuitious, but her demeanor was shy. Some remarks detail her as a power-hungry woman whose prospects were low, who was a member of a failing House, who saw a man with no history of political power, a man driven mad by war, and she took her husband’s wealth with his death.

The only writing of hers that remains is as translated: I fell for him as an arsonist falls for flame, a pilgrim for God, our great ruler when they set eyes upon this island.
