Born in the year 197, Luja “The Goblin” is a member of the Ubryie tribe of the Nikta goblins. Her life took a dramatic turn in the year 200 when she was abducted during a raid on her homeland and later sold in one of Eros’s infamous smuggling markets. Purchased by Elysainé, a prominent socialite and distant relative of emperor Lysander II, Luja found herself transplanted into the heart of Erosian high society. Despite the circumstances of her arrival, Elysainé treated Luja as an equal from the outset, fostering a unique relationship of respect and trust that allowed Luja to thrive.
As the caretaker of the gardens at Villa Voltris, located on Victory Road to the west of the Akropolis, Luja has transformed the estate’s grounds into one of the most celebrated green spaces in the City of Eros. The gardens are home to a wide array of exotic flora, many imported from distant lands, and serve as a symbol of Elysainé’s wealth and refined tastes. Luja’s mastery of horticulture and her dedication to preserving the gardens’ beauty have made her an indispensable part of the household. Her responsibilities include cultivating rare plants and defending the gardens from pests, such as the crows that frequently menace the area.
Luja’s presence at Villa Voltris reflects both her resilience and the complexities of Erosian society. Her work bridges the divide between the grandeur of the city’s nobility and the labor that sustains it, while her story offers a glimpse into the lives of those displaced by the empire’s far-reaching influence. In a city defined by its contrasts, Luja’s quiet diligence has left an enduring mark on one of its most prestigious estates.
