[edit] Biography
Lyon is a Queen Knight's apprentice and the Prince's loyal bodyguard. She was trained in her youth to be a member of Nether Gate, named Mismar. However, she was saved from Nether Gate by King Ferid, who gave her the new name of Lyon. She decided to become the Prince's bodyguard in order to repay Ferid's kindness, and went into training as a Queen's Knight apprentice. She accompanies the Prince anywhere he goes until the incident in the "New Queen's Campaign". There, she is stabbed by Dolph while trying to push the Prince away, and is mortally wounded. However, due to the miraculous intervention of the Dawn Rune and first aid from Galleon, she is saved from death, although trapped in a coma. The Prince sets out on a journey to unlock more powers of the Dawn Rune with Miakis, Zweig, and Lorelai to save Lyon. The Prince eventually returns to the castle and heals Lyon with the new power within the Dawn Rune ("Light of Day").
Lyon spends some time recuperating and exercising after receiving the second Dawn Rune-powered recovery. After Lyon is healed, she returns to the battlefield once again with the Prince in the siege of Sol-Falena. As Sialeeds lies dying, the Twilight Rune chooses Lyon as its new host. Lyon eventually is allowed to avenge her upbringing on Dolph in the Sun Ruins and defeats him in a duel. After this duel, Dolph throws a poisoned weapon at the Prince, and Lyon jumps in front of the Prince to protect him, and is hit instead. Afterwards she insists that she's fine and pushes on. She then fights the Sun Rune Incarnation with the Prince. She dies shortly after the battle as the effects of the poison take over. The Twilight Rune then passes on to the traumatized Prince, who possesses both runes and the nation, but not his erstwhile friend and protector. However, if the Prince has acquired all 108 Stars of Destiny, then the power of the Three Runes (Dawn, Twilight, and Sun) combine, and Lyon is miraculously revived. She either becomes the youngest-ever Queen's Knight alongside the Prince, who becomes Commander of the Knights or joins Prince in his journey towards northern continents with Georg.
It can be speculated that Lyon has feelings for Prince that goes beyond duty and friendship. (and prince for her, respectively) Some novelizations and fanons depicted the relationship between Lyon and Prince, making them marry at the end of story, just after Prince appointed as the Commander of the Knights, or left the Falena with Lyon and Georg. This speculation is further backed by the fact that , at the end of the game, if player receives the true ending, game says Lyon always stood by the Prince's side wherever he goes, hinting that they begun a romantic relationship.
