Changes: Ney Phutapie

Revision as of 17:41, 5 November 2019

"Please... keep what I’ve said a secret."

―Ney Phutapie^[src]

Ney Phutapie, born Ney Marlon, was the Thirteenth Princess of the Kingdom of Marlon and a spy for Abyss I.R. and her mother, Queen Prim. Born the illegitimate daughter of King Arth and Prim, Ney was given to Abyss I.R. to be experimented on. Sent undercover to the Lucifenian Royal Palace and subsequently adopted by Mariam Phutapie, she became a maid at the palace, working to ensure Lucifenia's destruction for her mother. She was one of Gretel's reincarnations.

History

Early Life

"Wait a minute. So you're saying—"
"Yes. The girl in this painting is the baby from back then... Your little sister."

―King Kyle and Keel Freezis^[src]

On November 1, EC 482, Ney was born the illegitimate daughter of Queen Prim Marlon and King Arth Lucifen d'Autriche, given to Abyss I.R. by Prim to hide her infidelity from her husband.^[1] Over the years, Abyss experimented on Ney for her magical research while also training her in espionage and assassination; over time, the girl became fueled by an obsessive loyalty to her mother.^[2] In EC 488, the six year-old Ney was brought by Prim to visit the royal palace in Bariti; while there, she was introduced to her half-brother, Kyle, and she modeled for one of his paintings although never speaking with him.^[3]

In EC 491, Abyss I.R. sent Ney to infiltrate Lucifenia in preparation for possessing Princess Riliane with the Demon of Pride while also spying on Minister Presi and see if he let himself be possessed by the Demon of Gluttony. After retrieving one of the Four Mirrors of Lucifenia, Ney infiltrated the royal palace and and witnessed her uncle's defeat at the hands of Elluka Clockworker and Mariam Phutapie, with the Demon of Pride being exorcised from Princess Riliane.

She soon after reported everything to Abyss on the outskirts of Lucifenia; she received her next instructions to transfer the Demon of Pride to Riliane after Queen Anne was dead, and the nine-year-old headed back for the capital. Crafting a timid and loose-tongued persona for herself, Ney allowed herself to be discovered unconscious by Mariam, feigning amnesia and becoming adopted as Ney Phutapie. She eventually became a maid at the royal palace.^[2] As time progressed, she spread rumors among the staff and passed them off gossip she had heard.^[4]

Reign of Evil

"We two who once played with Princess Riliane at the palace five years ago are now facing each other again as soldiers. I'll never understand this world of ours... Kyahaha!"

―Ney to Chartette^[src]

After the death of Queen Anne in January of EC 499, Ney transplanted the Demon of Pride to Riliane as instructed, gifting the mirror to the Princess.^[1] The day after Riliane became the governing monarch, asked Ney fetched Mariam to inspect the new palace servant, Leonhart Avadonia's adopted son Allen, as Leonhart requested.^[5] As Riliane became increasingly tyrannical, Ney continued serving her faithfully at the palace along with Chartette Langley and Allen.

On December 27, EC 499, Ney was helping with the preparations for Riliane's fourteenth birthday happening later that night. Agreeing to take Allen's place in bringing Riliane's midafternoon snack, she entered Riliane's room at three o'clock and discovered she had escaped out of a hidden passage at the black of the fireplace. She frantically called for the princess until she found Leonhart, Allen, and Chartette,^[6] explaining what had happened. She subsequently joined the search party Leonhart organized and sought Riliane in the Lost Woods. During the search, she apologized for her carelessness and Allen and Leonhart comforted her.

NeyAllen — Ney pulling Allen during the banquet

Later on, Ney and the rest of the search party saw a signal beacon launched from the nearby port town and traveled there to retrieve the Princess.^[7] Once Riliane was returned to the palace, the servants were forced to make up for their lost time that evening, and exhaustively served dishes during the celebration that night. As the servants prepared to bring out Riliane's giant birthday cake, Ney frantically retrieved Allen from where he was resting and had him help her and the other servants push the cake out to the amazed crowd.^[6]

Sometime after, in EC 500, Ney learned that Leonhart was stealing from the palace stores to feed the citizens; when Riliane stormed into the kitchen one day, demanding to know the identity of the one stealing food, Ney hesitantly admitted to her that it was Leonhart when faced with beheading. Later, she told the princess "rumors" she had heard discrediting Leonhart's loyalty and good character.

The day following her confession, Ney met with Allen in the Servant Room and lied that she had overheard Leonhart saying that he had sent Allen to the palace with the intention of making him assassinate Riliane. As she tried to speak further with him about this, Allen left.^[4] Ney was later bedridden with the flu around the time Allen was sent to visit Keel Freezis at his mansion.^[8]

Green Hunting

"Mother, I've done it! Your daughter, Ney Marlon, magnificently accomplished it!"

―Ney's triumphant cry^[src]

After Riliane learned that Kyle broke off her engagement, Mariam was tasked with discovering the identity of the king's secret lover;^[9] sent to the Kingdom of Elphegort to investigate, Ney arrived at the Freezis' home, explaining what had transpired at the palace.^[10] After that she returned to Mariam and told her she learned nothing regarding the mysterious girl's identity.^[9] During the Green Hunting, Ney spied on Allen as he visited Keel in prison and overheard that Keel was harboring Kyle's alleged lover, who was his maid Michaela.^[9]

She soon after learned from Mikina where Michaela's hiding place was located in Millennium Tree Forest,^[11] as well as discovering that Michaela was one of Elluka's disciples who was assisting her in collecting the vessels of sin.^[10] After telling Riliane in the Servant Room that Allen knew where Michaela was, she left when Allen arrived and waited outside as he and Riliane talked. Once he exited, she feigned guilt as she learned Allen had been ordered to kill Michaela.

When she saw that Allen had doubts about carrying out his orders,^[9] Ney disguised herself as him and went to Michaela's hiding spot the following night. Fooling Michaela, Ney lured her to the top of the well and knocked her back down, breaking her back. Triumphant, she then stabbed Michaela and left.^[10] Not long after, she enjoyed an afternoon with Chartette and Riliane in the Heavenly Yard.^[9]

Marlon Occupation

"Haha, I'm just kidding, Chartette. I know you didn't kill her. Because I'm the one who did it."

―Ney admitting to Mariam's murder^[src]

Following Prime Minister Minis' attempted assassination, Ney joined Chartette and Allen as they eavesdropped on the meeting.^[12] In December of that year, she was among the servants who fled during the invasion of the palace.^[13] Lingering in the Heavenly Yard during the assault, she secretly watched Mariam battle Chartette. Once her foster mother was injured and escaped, Ney followed after her into an obscure corner of the courtyard and approached her, feigning worry for her adoptive mother. When Mariam's back was turned, Ney stabbed Mariam in the back and killed her.^[14]

After the revolution was over and her brother occupied the Lucifenian Royal Palace, Ney reported to Kyle that Germaine, Elluka, and Gumillia were involved in Michaela's murder and fed him information on their possible whereabouts.^[15] Soon after, she returned to Marlon and saw her mother, Prim, again for the first time in nine years. There she reported the princess' execution and the dissolution of Three Heroes.^[16]

When Kyle asked to use the Special Maneuvers Task Force to assist in his Witch Hunt in EC 502, Abyss I.R. assigned Ney as its head. With absolute freedom to anything in regards to the Witch Hunt, she and her underlings tracked Gumillia as the new court mage and adviser to the Beelzenian Emperor, while finding Germaine was a soldier for the Beelzenian army.^[15]

Beelzenian Campaign

"The other generals have lost a bit of their morale, following you making that amateur lass a commander."

―General George Ausdin to Kyle^[src]

In EC 505, the task force was ordered by Kyle to travel to Retasan for his planned invasion of Beelzenia, expecting them to find and capture Gumillia. Given the Glass of Conchita by Abyss I.R., Ney forged a contract with the Demon of Gluttony,^[15] testing the glass' reanimation power by unleashing corpse soldiers upon the Column Forest. She and her corpse soldiers were then quickly defeated by Eater Sabella in his bear form, Ney being knocked unconscious.^[17]

She later had Kyle make her Retasan's commander in place of Riliane Mouchet,^[15] traveling to the fortress with the rest of the Special Maneuvers Task Force.^[18]

Ney later crossed the border to the Beelzenian Empire after midnight and killed all the guards on the night shift, before entering the Rucolebeni cemetery. As she encountered Chartette Ney began to taunt her former colleague, revealing her true nature and that the ceasefire between Marlon and Beelzenia had ended. Ney then spotted Yukina Freezis accompanying Chartette, although not quite recognizing her, and introduced herself. As Chartette threatened her to leave, Ney feigned an accusation that Chartette had killed her mother before admitting that she was the true culprit.

Chartette praeludium — Ney laughing maniacally as she raises the dead

As she continued to taunt the two, Ney brandished the Glass of Conchita and poured red wine into it in anticipation of the glass' reanimation ritual. After filling the glass to the brim, Ney poured the wine onto the ground and laughed hysterically as the spell took effect. With an army of the undead, Ney made the former Beelzenian Emperor's reanimated corpse the commander and directed her forces to assault Rucolebeni, among other areas.^[19] While there, the task force confirmed that Germaine was also present in Beelzenia.^[15] Three days later, Ney's army was overcome and Beelzenia launched a counterattack on Retasan.

Once the Beelzenian army began laying siege to the fortress, the golden-haired commander immediately requested for reinforcements; denied by most generals, only three thousand soldiers came to bolster her five thousand troops. Armed with only eight thousand troops, Ney forced the battle into a deadlock to hold the fortress city. As the Beelzenian army conducted nightly raids on the fortress, she began rallying the corpse soldiers within the fortress to bolster their defenses, causing her soldiers to fall into further disarray. As Beelzenia's forces began capturing the fortress city, Ney fled with her task force;^[18] later she confirmed that Germaine and Gumillia had left the Empire.

Traveling to the royal palace, Ney had an audience with Kyle and she, with her task force, made a report to the Marlon king in the Hall of Sounds. Weathering his criticisms and explaining what she had learned about Germaine and Gumillia, Ney dryly explained that she was unable to capture them with the undead soldiers and put the blame on Abyss I.R. and Kyle's own tactics. She then explained she would be returning home to seek further counsel from Abyss. As she departed for Marlon, she left the rest of the task force in Kyle's hands on his request.^[15]

Endgame

"I said to listen, you whooore!"

―Ney to Prim^[src]

Once Kyle voyaged to Marlon after being freed from the Demon of Pride's influence, Ney and Abyss I.R. headed to Bariti and then, with the rest of the Special Maneuvers Task Force, Ney joined her mother at Castle Hedgehog. Upon her order, Ney began releasing the Gula plague throughout the Blood Pool Region via the Glass, building up an undead army through its resurrection powers.^[3] Shortly before Kyle launched an attack on the castle, she positioned the task force's assassination squad at the courtyard to ambush him and Germaine. Kyle and the Marlon army later assaulted the castle and engaged Ney's reanimated army.

Allowing Kyle to spot her during the fighting, Ney lured him and his companions into the courtyard, where the Task Force sprang their ambush on him and Germaine. While the intruders were occupied, she fled up Heartbeat Clocktower and waited at the top with her mother for Kyle's arrival. After her brother entered with two soldiers, Ney taunted him and fled; pursued by Kyle's troops, Ney killed the soldiers and returned to Prim's chamber to share her success. As she tried to get Prim's praise, Ney found her mother not even acknowledging her presence and, becoming enraged, she stabbed her in the chest.

NeyDemonStrike — Ney preparing to kill Kyle

After her manic fit, Ney realized Prim was dead and, unable to accept she had killed her, convinced herself that Kyle was the culprit. Driven to a frenzy, Ney tried to invoke a demonic transformation with the Glass of Conchita, although to her confusion she only succeeded in changing her uniform into a red dress. Nonetheless, Ney began a ferocious attack on Kyle as she gradually began to act more like Banica Conchita, even talking about eating her opponent.

When Kyle finally tried to counter her with his sword, the blade broke and Ney knocked him to the ground. Straddling him, Ney stabbed Kyle in the chest and her blade was blocked by Michaela's enchantment on Kyle's shell necklace, shattering her knife and the necklace itself. Enraged, Ney continued her attack with her hands, punching Kyle repeatedly, until she was interrupted by Germaine. While she was distracted, Kyle pulled out Chartette's rocket glove and fired the weapon at her, launching Ney to the ceiling and back and knocking her unconscious. Ney was soon after taken to Lioness Castle, tied to a bed in one of the bedrooms.

Later on, Abyss I.R. arrived while possessing Mikina and murdered the assassin. The Demon of Gluttony then prepared to absorb her into the Glass of Conchita; as she did Ney, appearing as she had when she was six, encountered the dreaming Kyle in the black box while standing with The Demon of Gluttony. After she apologized for all that she had done, hoping to be reborn someday with him and her half-siblings, Ney said her farewells to Kyle and The Demon shortly after absorbed her into the Glass.^[1] Afterwards, Ney's memories of her past lives awakened and she returned to her original self as Gretel.^[20]

Legacy

After her death, Ney was buried next to her mother in Left Chapel as a Marlon general.^[1] Yukina Freezis later wrote a novel detailing the true events and Ney's actions, gaining popularity around the world during the succeeding centuries.^[21] Ney's soul, having returned to her original self as Gretel, acted as the Demon of Gluttony's servant and familiar.^[22]

A century later, Gretel mused about her past incarnation, comparing Lemy Abelard's blind devotion for Julia to Ney's for Prim, telling her story to him when he insisted that he wasn't simply brainwashed by her.^[20]

Personality and Traits

"So it was you who killed the border guard and invaded at dawn today. Why would you do something like that!?"
"Why?"

―Chartette and Ney^[src]

NeyPersonality — Ney's mental instability

Ney was raised to be her mother's devoted tool. Since childhood, she lived only to please Prim and was obedient to her will; although fully aware her mother saw her as an instrument for her schemes, Ney was happy just to receive her praise and would undertake any task or commit any atrocity for her.^[16] As she grew more unstable, and particularly due to the Demon of Gluttony's influence, this idolization for Prim became an obsession; Ney became dependent on her mother's recognition and grew violent when it was withheld, even killing her. This devotion made her unwilling to accept that she, herself, had murdered Prim in a rage.^[1]

Ney's obsession with Prim was highlighted by her own mental instability and sociopathy as a result of Abyss I.R. experimenting on her from an early age. Having no respect for life save for Prim's, and eager in pleasing her, Ney took sadistic glee in carrying out murders and acts of espionage to accomplish her mother's goals,^[10] her bloodlust devolving into wanton killing for sport.^[1] Even as a young girl, Ney was unsociable and spoke like an adult, highlighting her lack of a real childhood.^[2] By the time she murdered Prim, the Demon of Gluttony had completely eroded Ney's cognitive skills and she acted animalistic, even craving human flesh.

While undercover, Ney maintained a persona as a weak, timid, and high-strung maid; pretending to be merely loose-lipped, Ney used her penchant for gossip to carefully seed lies to manipulate others.^[23] Many of the relationships she maintained at the palace were faux, and she demonstrated no love or loyalty to any of her fellows later on.^[19] Despite this, Ney subconsciously grieved the loss of her innocence and felt truly guilty for all that she had done,^[1] wishing she could have become a proper loving sister to her half-siblings.^[24]

Skills and Abilities

"But even if the summoning of these dead soldiers was Ney's work, it's hard to imagine, that it's due to a spell. As far as I know, Ney does not have strong enough magical ability to be able to do such a thing."

―Gumillia^[src]

Having been trained by both Abyss I.R. and Mariam Phutapie, Ney was well learned in espionage, spying, cloak-and-dagger, and assassination.^[1] Even at the age of nine, she was able to flawlessly create a fake persona that fooled even Mariam.^[2] She was also cunning in crafting this persona, appearing to everyone as a non-threat.^[19] She was similarly able to impersonate others, like pretending to be Allen.^[10] Because of her unique position at the palace, Ney could easily influence Princess Riliane and her reputation for gossip let her seamlessly spread misinformation even in everyday conversation.^[25]

Employing a small, concealable dagger as her weapon of choice, Ney murdered grunt soldiers or guards with ease.^[1] After becoming the Head of Espionage, Ney had the full resources of the Special Maneuvers Task Force at her disposal, including its legion of masked agents and extensive intelligence network.^[15] Likewise, after being made a Marlon general by Kyle, Ney had the authority to lead large armies as needed, although she lacked experience and charisma, making her ineffective as a commander; this lack of military tact was emphasized by how her attempts to conjure more undead soldiers only further disoriented her existing troops.^[15]

Although she had no magical talent, Ney was able to extensively use the Demon of Gluttony's power due to being a reincarnation of Gretel, and by extension, Arte. Through the Glass of Conchita, Ney could reanimate those that died from a Gula infection, potentially resurrecting entire hordes under her control.^[19] While possessed, she could also undergo a demonic transformation, striking with heightened speed, reflexes, and strength while dressed in the attire of the Demon of Gluttony: Banica Conchita.^[1]

Character Connections

Prim Marlon: Ney's birth mother. Raised to be obsessively loyal to Prim, Ney's every action was for the sake of pleasing her mother. In addition, she took an addictive satisfaction in the queen's praise, although not caring whether or not Prim truly loved her. Due to this obsession, as her mental state deteriorated Ney became enraged in a moment when Prim failed to praise her and murdered her. Despite her maniacal glee when stabbing her mother, Ney still became distraught and enraged when believing Kyle killed her.

Kyle Marlon: Ney's half-brother. Although briefly playing with him as a child, Ney expressed no love for Kyle, seeing him as unimportant compared to Prim. In addition, she amused herself by teasing the king and had no qualms manipulating him for her mother's ends, up to attacking him directly when needed. Despite this, deep down Ney wished to have had a closer relationship with her half-sibling, bidding him a fonder farewell in death.

Abyss I.R.: The mage who experimented on Ney. Obedient to Abyss I.R.'s every order, Ney acted as the mage's agent and looked to her guidance with the Glass of Conchita. Due to being used for her experiments, Abyss I.R.'s treatment of Ney was a leading cause of her mental instability.

Mariam Phutapie: Ney's adopted mother. While maintaining a false mother-daughter relationship with Mariam for years and learning espionage under her tutelage, Ney held no loyalty or love for the Head of Maids; during the Revolution Ney had no qualms with abandoning her, and later took maniacal satisfaction in murdering her for her real mother's sake.

Chartette Langley: A fellow servant of Riliane and later opponent. Ney often quarreled with Chartette over trivial things in their employment and, although they often would spend time together as friends, she held no true affection for her. Ney later saw her only as an obstacle to her mother's plans, taking pleasure in finally revealing her true nature to Chartette and in attempting to kill her.

Michaela: One of Ney's victims. Ney took great delight in killing Michaela as the apprentice of Elluka Clockworker, one of her mother's enemies, and as a catalyst for Prim's designs towards Lucifenia.

Riliane Lucifen d'Autriche: Ney's half-sister and employer. Although often spending time with the princess in her employment as a maid, Ney easily manipulated her in order to fulfill Prim's aims, such as in feeding her rumors and betraying Michaela's location to her. Despite this, deep down Ney wished to have had a better relationship with her half-sibling. Originally, Riliane was supposed to be the next reincarnation of Gretel but was instead passed onto Ney due to the distortion of fate caused by Prim's affair with Arth.

Allen Avadonia: Ney's half-brother and fellow servant of Riliane. While pretending to hold a friendly relationship with Allen, Ney often manipulated him during their employment together according to Prim's orders, such as telling the servant falsehoods about Leonhart and using him to discover Michaela's location. Despite this, deep down Ney wished to have had a better relationship with her half-sibling.

Gretel: Ney's first incarnation. Ney got her loyalty to Prim from Gretel's relationship with Meta Salmhofer; she associated her mother figure with Meta, and so wished to please her.

Arte: Ney's previous incarnation. Ney's relationship with the Demon of Gluttony is credited to her connection to Arte, and the latter passed on to her fanatic loyalty towards her mother figures.

Sent undercover to the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace]] and subsequently adopted by [[Mariam Phutapie]], she became a maid at the palace, working to ensure [[Lucifenia|Lucifenia's]] destruction for her mother. She was one of [[Gretel|Gretel's]] [[Reincarnation|reincarnations]].

+In EC 491, Abyss I.R. sent Ney to infiltrate [[Lucifenia]] in preparation for possessing Princess [[Riliane Lucifen d'Autriche|Riliane]] with the [[Demon of Pride]] while also spying on Minister [[Presi Rogzé|Presi]] and see if he let himself be possessed by the [[Banica Conchita|Demon of Gluttony]]. After retrieving one of the [[Four Mirrors of Lucifenia]], Ney infiltrated the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace|royal palace]] and and witnessed her uncle's defeat at the hands of [[Elluka Clockworker]] and [[Mariam Phutapie]], with the Demon of Pride being [[Exorcism Magic|exorcised]] from Princess Riliane.

+She soon after reported everything to Abyss on the outskirts of Lucifenia; she received her next instructions to transfer the Demon of Pride to Riliane after Queen [[Anne Lucifen d'Autriche|Anne]] was dead, and the nine-year-old headed back for the [[Lucifenian|capital]]. Crafting a timid and loose-tongued persona for herself, Ney allowed herself to be discovered unconscious by Mariam, feigning amnesia and becoming adopted as Ney Phutapie. She eventually became a maid at the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace|royal palace]].{{ref|story|Twiright Prank (story)}} As time progressed, she spread rumors among the staff and passed them off gossip she had heard.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 1, Section 2}}

Though never speaking to him, Ney played with the Prince and eventually stood in as a model for one of his paintings.

-She soon after reported to the sorceress on a hill in the outskirts of Lucifenia, explaining what occurred and that everything went according to her plan. When asked about the Demon, she related Elluka's exorcism and became confused by how the old woman referred to Elluka as her "big sister". When asked if she knew what to do next, she confirmed her mission and that she carried one of the mirrors. After being told to remember her training and endure, she questioned how long she needed to wait.
-Abyss then told her to transfer the Demon of Pride to Riliane after Queen [[Anne Lucifen d'Autriche|Anne]] was dead. Once Abyss I.R. reminded her that it was all for her mother, the nine-year-old headed back for the [[Lucifenian|capital]]. After crafting a timid and loose-tongued persona for herself, Ney knocked herself unconscious and was soon after found by Mariam.

-[[File:Neyscream.png|thumb|250px|Ney screams for Riliane]]On December 27, EC 499, Ney was helping with the preparations for Riliane's fourteenth birthday happening later that night. When Allen asked if she could attend to Riliane and bring the princess her midafternoon snack in his place, the maid agreed to help. Once three o'clock had passed, Ney entered Riliane's [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Riliane's Room|room]] and discovered she was missing. Noticing the opened hidden passage at the black of the fireplace, the maid realized she escaped and rushed out of the room.
-Shouting for Riliane and on the verge of tears, Ney was found by Leonhart, Allen, and Chartette as she passed between some mirrors.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 1 Section 1</ref> When the servant asked what was wrong, Ney told Allen that the princess was missing and led them to her room. Explaining what had happened, she showed them the secret passage. Once Leonhart organized a search party, Ney joined in searching the [[Forest of Bewilderment]] to find Riliane. Unable to find the missing monarch, she ran over to Allen and asked if he had found her.
-Once the servant admitted they hadn't, Ney lowered her head and apologized, lamenting that she should have been more careful. Allen then comforted the girl and Leonhart agreed, telling her that no one could've known about the passage. Later on, Ney and the rest of the search party saw a signal beacon launched from the nearby port town and traveled there to retrieve the Princess. At Riliane's command, Ney knelt along with the rest of the search party to show her their loyalty.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Act 1</ref>
-===Their Fourteenth Birthday===
-{{Quote|We're not done yet! There's another one! It's huge!|Ney to Allen|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow}}
-[[File:NeyAllen.png|thumb|Ney pulling Allen during the banquet]]Once Riliane was returned to the palace, the servants were forced to make up for their lost time that evening. During the celebration that night, Allen and the other servants worked exhaustively serving dishes in the [http://theevilliouschronicles.wikia.com/wiki/Lucifenian_Royal_Palace#Hall_of_Mirrors Hall of Mirrors] for the guests. As the servants prepared to bring out Riliane's giant birthday cake, Ney began looking for Allen.
-After finding the servant, the maid grabbed his arm before running off with him. After telling him they weren't done yet and that the last dish was huge, the maid rushed the boy to the massive dessert. Afterward, Ney helped the other servants push out the cake at Prime Minister [[Minis Stoup|Minis']] signal.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 1 Section 1</ref>
-===Dark Secrets===
-Sometime after, in EC 500, Ney witnessed Leonhart stealing from the palace stores to feed the citizens and began spreading the rumor throughout the palace. While she and Allen were busy preparing dinner, Riliane stormed into the kitchen demanding to know where Mariam was. Ney explained that her foster parent had gone out for the day and, hearing this, Riliane asked if the maid knew who was stealing food from the palace.
+On December 27, EC 499, Ney was helping with the preparations for Riliane's fourteenth birthday happening later that night. Agreeing to take Allen's place in bringing Riliane's midafternoon snack, she entered Riliane's [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Riliane's Room|room]] at three o'clock and discovered she had escaped out of a hidden passage at the black of the fireplace. She frantically called for the princess until she found Leonhart, Allen, and Chartette,{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 1 Section 1}} explaining what had happened. She subsequently joined the search party Leonhart organized and sought Riliane in the [[Lost Woods]]. During the search, she apologized for her carelessness and Allen and Leonhart comforted her.
-Ney glanced at a nearby chef as she explained she heard a rumor from them about the incident, and justified that none of the servants were stealing the food. The princess noted Ney's inclination for gossip and asked why she knew about the rumor. Lost for words, the chef intervened and helped explain what he had seen and Ney finally admitted that Leonhart was the culprit, threatened with being beheaded otherwise. Later, Ney told the princess that she heard "rumors" about Leonhart being in multiple love affairs, killing many compatriots, kidnapping a baby from a warring country, and attempting to overthrow Lucifenia.

-The day following her confession, she entered the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Servant Room|Servant Room]]. Asked if she was taking a break, she said she was. As the servant prepared to finish his break, Ney told Allen she heard Leonhart and her mother conversing about him and listened in. Piquing the boy's interest, Ney continued and said she learned Allen was the knight's adopted son and that he was sent to the palace for a reason.
+Sometime after, in EC 500, Ney learned that Leonhart was stealing from the palace stores to feed the citizens; when Riliane stormed into the kitchen one day, demanding to know the identity of the one stealing food, Ney hesitantly admitted to her that it was Leonhart when faced with beheading. Later, she told the princess "rumors" she had heard discrediting Leonhart's loyalty and good character.
-When Allen explained the reasoning, Ney shook her head and said Leonhart planned to have the servant assassinate the princess, much to her mother's surprise and fury. Before finishing her gossip, Allen left and ignored the rest of her words. Shortly before Allen and Riliane had enacted their scheme to assassinate Leonhart that night, Ney told Allen about his mother's admirers.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 1, Section 2</ref> She was later bedridden due to the flu around the time Allen was sent to visit [[Keel Freezis]] at his [[Freezis Mansion|mansion]].<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 2, Section 1</ref>

+The day following her confession, Ney met with Allen in the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Servant Room|Servant Room]] and lied that she had overheard Leonhart saying that he had sent Allen to the palace with the intention of making him assassinate Riliane. As she tried to speak further with him about this, Allen left.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 1, Section 2}} Ney was later bedridden with the flu around the time Allen was sent to visit [[Keel Freezis]] at his [[Freezis Mansion|mansion]].{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 2, Section 1}}

+She soon after learned from [[Mikina Freezis|Mikina]] where Michaela's hiding place was located in Millennium Tree Forest,{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praefacio of Blue|Chapter 4, Section 2}} as well as discovering that Michaela was one of Elluka's disciples who was assisting her in collecting the [[vessels of sin]].{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green|Chapter 3, Section 2}} After telling Riliane in the Servant Room that Allen knew where Michaela was, she left when Allen arrived and waited outside as he and Riliane talked. Once he exited, she feigned guilt as she learned Allen had been ordered to kill Michaela.
-{{Quote|Mother, I did it! Your daughter, Ney Marlon, has performed admirably!|Ney's triumphant cry|The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green}}
-During the [[Green Hunting]], Ney spied on Allen as he visited Keel in prison and overheard their conversation about Michaela and her location.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 2, Section 2</ref> At some point, she learned from [[Mikina Freezis|Mikina]] that Michaela was hiding in a well in the Millennium Tree Forest.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praefacio of Blue - Chapter 4, Section 2</ref> She would later tell Riliane about this in the Servant Room, asking to keep her information "confidential" when Allen arrived. Appearing nervous, she left and waited outside the doorway for the servant. Overhearing their conversation, Ney apologized to Allen as he exited the room, learning he was ordered to kill Michaela. Allen forgave her and Ney asked if he was actually going to kill the green-haired girl. When the servant responded that he wasn't sure,<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow - Chapter 2, Section 2</ref> Ney disguised herself as Allen and approached Michaela's hiding spot the following night.
+When she saw that Allen had doubts about carrying out his orders,{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 2, Section 2}} Ney disguised herself as him and went to Michaela's hiding spot the following night. Fooling Michaela, Ney lured her to the top of the well and knocked her back down, breaking her back. Triumphant, she then stabbed Michaela and left.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green|Chapter 3, Section 2}} Not long after, she enjoyed an afternoon with Chartette and Riliane in the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Heavenly Yard|Heavenly Yard]].{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow|Chapter 2, Section 2}}
+===Marlon Occupation===
-Fooling the disciple, Michaela asked why she dressed in a cloak and sounded a bit different. Ney gave her excuse and said that the princess knew of her location and she needed to be moved. Michaela turned to prepare her luggage and Ney took advantage of the opportunity. Charging at her, the assassin knocked Michaela down the well, breaking her back at the bottom. Laughing, she descended the ladder and removed her disguise. Maniacally crying out to her mother of her success, Ney laughed again before stabbing the Mage of Eternity's disciple in the chest. Confident the girl was dead, Ney left. <ref>The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green - Chapter 3, Section 2</ref>

+After the [[Lucifenian Revolution|revolution]] was over and her brother occupied the Lucifenian Royal Palace, Ney reported to Kyle that [[Germaine Avadonia|Germaine]], Elluka, and [[Gumillia]] were involved in Michaela's murder and fed him information on their possible whereabouts.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 3, Section 1}} Soon after, she returned to Marlon and saw her mother, Prim, again for the first time in nine years.

+When Kyle asked to use the [[Special Maneuvers Task Force]] to assist in his Witch Hunt in EC 502, Abyss I.R. assigned Ney as its head. With absolute freedom to anything in regards to the Witch Hunt, she and her underlings tracked Gumillia as the new court mage and adviser to the Beelzenian [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Beelzenian Emperor (EC 505)|Emperor]], while finding Germaine was a soldier for the Beelzenian army.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 3, Section 1}}
-Sometime later, Ney, Chartette, and Riliane talked together in the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Heavenly Yard|Heavenly Yard]].

-While hiding a knife behind her back, she approached Mariam and said she came back out of concern for her mother.

As she encountered Chartette Ney began to taunt her former colleague, revealing her true nature and that the ceasefire between Marlon and Beelzenia had ended. Ney then spotted [[Yukina Freezis]] accompanying Chartette, although not quite recognizing her, and introduced herself. As Chartette threatened her to leave, Ney feigned an accusation that Chartette had killed her mother before admitting that she was the true culprit.

Insisting Kyle make her Retasan's commander in place of [[Riliane Mouchet]], the king complied and gave Ney the position.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red - Chapter 3, Section 1</ref> Along with the Espionage Task Force, Ney traveled to Retasan and relieved General Riliane of her command.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red - Chapter 2, Section 2</ref>

After filling the glass to the brim, Ney poured the wine onto the ground and laughed hysterically as the spell took effect. With an army of the undead, Ney made the former Beelzenian [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Beelzenian Emperor (former)|Emperor's]] reanimated corpse the commander and directed her forces to assault Rucolebeni, among other areas.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 2, Section 1}} While there, the task force confirmed that Germaine was also present in Beelzenia.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 3, Section 1}} Three days later, Ney's army was overcome and Beelzenia launched a counterattack on Retasan.
-The Head of Espionage then crossed the border to the Beelzenian Empire after midnight and killed all guards on the night shift. The assassin then bought a bottle of red wine for the glass' [[Reanimation|reanimation]] ritual at the market in [[Rukolbeni]] and returned to the nearby cemetery. Soon after encountering Chartette, the former maid mocked her residence in the graveyard but noted its convenience since her corpse could then be buried there immediately. Laughing at her sick humor, Ney approached her former colleague and reminisced how the former maids reunite as soldiers. When Chartette realized Ney killed her comrades and asked why she did it, the assassin continued to smile and jokingly tilted her head, asking why she needed a reason.
+Once the Beelzenian army began laying siege to the fortress, the golden-haired commander immediately requested for reinforcements; denied by most generals, only three thousand soldiers came to bolster her five thousand troops. Armed with only eight thousand troops, Ney forced the battle into a deadlock to hold the fortress city. As the Beelzenian army conducted nightly raids on the fortress, she began rallying the corpse soldiers within the fortress to bolster their defenses, causing her soldiers to fall into further disarray. As Beelzenia's forces began capturing the fortress city, Ney fled with her task force;{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 2, Section 2}} later she confirmed that Germaine and Gumillia had left the Empire.
-Faced with Chartette's response that it was unnecessary because they were at peace, Ney gladly explained she came to announce that the truce between Marlon and Beelzenia was dissolved. Noticing the [[Yukina Freezis|girl]] accompanying her former colleague, she asked about her and noted she seemed familiar. The girl admitted she didn't remember her and Ney gleefully introduced herself. Threatened by Chartette for trespassing if she didn't leave the country immediately, Ney scoffed and remarked that she was weaponless.
+Traveling to the royal palace, Ney had an audience with Kyle and she, with her task force, made a report to the Marlon king in the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Hall of Sounds|Hall of Sounds]]. Weathering his criticisms and explaining what she had learned about Germaine and Gumillia, Ney dryly explained that she was unable to capture them with the undead soldiers and put the blame on Abyss I.R. and Kyle's own tactics. She then explained she would be returning home to seek further counsel from Abyss. As she departed for Marlon, she left the rest of the task force in Kyle's hands on his request.{{ref|book|The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red|Chapter 3, Section 1}}
-[[File:Chartette_praeludium.jpg|thumb|left|Ney laughing maniacally as she raises the dead]]The Beelzenian soldier retorted that her hands were enough and Ney questioned if she was even authorized to do so. Commenting that Chartette intended to kill her like how she killed her mother, Ney feigned being hurt and lost her smile. After Chartette retorted in a panic that it wasn't her, Ney's smile returned and she stated she was kidding before admitting that she had killed Mariam.
-Brandishing her wine bottle, she offered to join her in a drink before "realizing" that she was the only one who brought a glass. The murderer said she'd drink alone, tearing off the bottle's seal, while Chartette would drink with Allen and the others later. After filling the glass to the brim, Ney gave them her best wishes and poured the wine onto the ground, laughing hysterically as the ground shook and the two fled.

-[[File:CaptainNey.png|thumb|Ney makes her report]]After confirming both Germaine and Gumillia had left the Empire, the espionage captain traveled to the royal palace and requested an audience with Kyle. Eventually granted an audience, Ney and her task force entered the [[Lucifenian Royal Palace#Hall of Sounds|Hall of Sounds]] and knelt before the Marlon king. After Kyle voiced his disappointment in Ney's failure at Retasan, the assassin smiled and indifferently responded that the mission was more difficult than she had expected.
-When Kyle retorted that her mission was incomplete and Gumillia remained at large, she reported what she had learned regarding the mage and swordswoman and Kyle asked when she'd be ready to capture her. Ney expressed her dissatisfaction with the undead soldiers' incompetence and, seeing Kyle was speechless, cast the blame for her failure on Abyss I.R. instead. Kyle retorted that the Espionage Task Force should have been better and Ney stated they were not suited for the battlefield.
-When Kyle asked if she would hunt down the newly found targets, the Marlon commander answered no and said she would return home to have Abyss I.R. confirm if she was misusing the Glass. Kyle voiced his opposition but Ney declared it was necessary to know the [[Vessels of Sin|vessel's]] full potential for the Witch Hunt. The blue-haired king bitterly complied but said the rest of the task force needed to remain. Ney asked why and Kyle explained the task force wasn't needed for the assassin's visit and that he needed reinforcements in Lucifenia. Ney apathetically accepted his terms and, with a mischievous smile, said the all-female group was his and suggestively teased him about having too much "fun" with them before leaving the Hall of Sounds.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praeludium of Red - Chapter 3, Section 1</ref> She then departed for Marlon.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praefacio of Blue - Chapter 3, Section 1</ref>

-Kyle and the Marlon army later assaulted the castle and engaged Ney's reanimated army. Standing in the main hall, Ney oversaw the battle with the Marlon troops until she was spotted by Kyle and fled, leading him and his companions into the courtyard, where the Task Force sprang their ambush on him and Germaine. While the intruders were occupied, she fled up Heartbeat Clocktower and waited at the top with her mother for Kyle's arrival.
-After her brother entered with [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Walpole|two]] [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Seton|soldiers]], Ney waved the glass around in her right hand, tauntingly asking if the King wanted it. She then chuckled and chided her brother to come after her; the assassin then fled out the door opposite of them. Pursued by Kyle's troops, Ney put away the glass and took out her knife to battle the two. Once she swiftly killed the soldiers, the assassin returned to Prim's chamber, telling her mother she had finished while holding the bloodied dagger.
-Ignored, Ney approached the Queen Dowager and began complaining about the two victims before her mother cut her off to continue her explanation about the [[Clockworker's Doll]]. Moving in front of the Queen, Ney tried getting her mother's attention again but was ignored a third time. As Prim continued ignoring her, the assassin kept calling for her matriarch's attention and was still ignored. Screaming for her mother to listen to her, Ney snapped and stabbed Prim in the chest.
-The Queen's blood gushing upon her, Ney laughed maniacally while Prim perished. Afterwards, Ney realized her mother was dead and desperately called to her. While demanding to know who would kill her mother, Ney noticed Kyle and concluded he was the culprit. Infuriated and driven into a frenzy, Ney ranted that she would kill him in turn. Taking out the glass again, Ney proclaimed she'd show him the vessel's true power and shouted for the Demon of Gluttony to come into her.
-After the demon complied, Ney's uniform transformed into a red dress and the surprised assassin questioned if the meager change was due to the power being used for the corpse soldiers. Brushing it off, Ney exclaimed she wouldn't lose to the "evil" Kyle even without the demon's power. After, she repeatedly attacked Kyle with unwavering ferocity. Frustrated that he kept evading her attacks, Ney stopped and stared down her brother, slowly circling him while searching for an opening.
-The assassin then lost her patience and attacked the King again. In response to his counter and swing at her face, she kneed him and the strike instead cut her lip. Once they distanced themselves from each other again, the bloodied Ney smiled as memories of [[Banica Conchita]] resurged in her mind, remarking that her stomach was empty. She continued her onslaught while ranting that she didn't want to eat something so grotesque but she had to or else she'd be punished for leaving leftovers.
-[[File:NeyDemonStrike.png|thumb|250px|Ney preparing to kill Kyle]]When Kyle finally tried to counter her with his sword, the blade broke and Ney rammed into her half sibling. Straddling him on the floor, Ney raised her knife and said it was over. After stabbing it into his chest, she saw her strike instead shatter both her dagger and Kyle's shell necklace.
-The assassin deduced that it was Michaela's vengeance for killing her and demanded The Daughter of Green stay out of her way. Ney then continued her attack with her hands, punching Kyle repeatedly while screaming for him to die. Shortly after, she heard Germaine scream for Kyle and looked up, distracting the assassin and loosening her grip.
+Allowing Kyle to spot her during the fighting, Ney lured him and his companions into the courtyard, where the Task Force sprang their ambush on him and Germaine.

After her brother entered with [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Walpole|two]] [[List of Minor Characters in The Daughter of Evil#Seton|soldiers]], Ney taunted him and fled; pursued by Kyle's troops, Ney killed the soldiers and returned to Prim's chamber to share her success. As she tried to get Prim's praise, Ney found her mother not even acknowledging her presence and, becoming enraged, she stabbed her in the chest.
-Moments later, she noticed Kyle seemingly trying to reach for his sheath and dodged his swing, the attack grazing her cheek. The assassin told him resistance was futile before realizing he had actually grabbed Chartette's rocket glove. Kyle responded that it was a message from her former colleague and then fired the weapon at the shocked Ney. Launched into the ceiling, Ney crashed back down onto the floor and was rendered unconscious.<ref>The Daughter of Evil: Praefacio of Blue - Chapter 3, Section 2</ref>
+[[File:NeyDemonStrike.png|thumb|250px|Ney preparing to kill Kyle]]After her manic fit, Ney realized Prim was dead and, unable to accept she had killed her, convinced herself that Kyle was the culprit. Driven to a frenzy, Ney tried to invoke a demonic transformation with the Glass of Conchita, although to her confusion she only succeeded in changing her uniform into a red dress. Nonetheless, Ney began a ferocious attack on Kyle as she gradually began to act more like [[Banica Conchita]], even talking about eating her opponent.

Straddling him, Ney stabbed Kyle in the chest and her blade was blocked by Michaela's enchantment on Kyle's shell necklace, shattering her knife and the necklace itself. Enraged, Ney continued her attack with her hands, punching Kyle repeatedly, until she was interrupted by Germaine. While she was distracted, Kyle pulled out Chartette's rocket glove and fired the weapon at her, launching Ney to the ceiling and back and knocking her unconscious.

+Ney's obsession with Prim was highlighted by her own mental instability and sociopathy as a result of Abyss I.R. experimenting on her from an early age.

-As part of her dedication to Prim, she willingly assumed another persona for years to help fulfill her plans.

 [[Mariam Phutapie]]: Ney's adopted mother. While maintaining a false mother-daughter relationship with Mariam for years and learning espionage under her tutelage, Ney held no loyalty or love for the Head of Maids; during the Revolution Ney had no qualms with abandoning her, and later took maniacal satisfaction in murdering her for her real mother's sake.

 [[Arte]]: Ney's previous incarnation. Ney's relationship with the Demon of Gluttony is credited to her connection to Arte, and the latter passed on to her fanatic loyalty towards her mother figures.
-[[Servants|Female Servant]]: Ney's later incarnation. Ney's absorption into the Glass of Conchita led directly to the Female Servant's existence. They shared the same soul and Ney passed on her fanatic loyalty to her as she served the Master of the Graveyard in Evil's Theater.
