Story Behind the Character: Edith the VI is the direct descendent of Edith I who helped win the Irish war. She was put in an orphanage where all the bad little kids get sent to in chains and they aren't ever allowed to be adopted again. She escaped when Lilly got put in this orphanage and there was a mass jail break, so to speak. From there, she went off in search for the man who murdered her mother. So, let's see what this head strong girl is up to now.

Charity: Hi, Edith!

Edith: Hello.

Charity: How are you?

Edith: Fine, how are you?

Charity: Fine. Did you ever avenge your mother?

Edith: Oh, yes, don't you remember? I sent a letter to Jonathan telling him that I had.

Charity: Oh, that's right. It's been so long since I wrote that book, I had nearly forgotten. You settled down somewhere, didn't you?

Edith: That's right. A quiet, green country.

Charity: Yes, yes. How is life there?

Edith: It's quiet.

Charity: And?

Edith: It's green.

Charity: And?

Edith: It's a country.

Charity: And?

Edith: Well, Miss Author, you didn't exactly put much detail in it.

Charity: True. I didn't know much about description back then.

Edith: But I do enjoy living there. Nutmeg likes it too.

Charity: Oh, yeah? How is your horse?

Edith: Oh, well, she's better now. She likes it to be calm, you know. She didn't like it when we broke out of that orphanage.

Charity: No, I imagine not.

Edith: Miss Author, why did you even put such a strange orphanage in your story?

Charity: My dear character, don't you realize that if it hadn't been like that, they wouldn't have been able to hold you there? And thus you wouldn't have been in the story at all!

Edith: You should have had me randomly ride in and destroy Jonathan's king and that be that. Even though it was actually his knight which was somehow resurrected that he destroyed....

Charity: What? What's this now?

Edith: You made a mistake. You accidentally put “knight” instead of “king” so even though everywhere else it says king, he really and truly destroys the knight which had already been destroyed.

Charity: Oh... oops.

Edith: Yeah. I thought you knew that.

Charity: *hangs head shamefully* No, I didn't until just now. That's just sad. It's just so sad!

Edith: Should I go now and leave you to your misery?

Charity: *nods and waves Edith out*
