Story behind the character: Lilly is an orphan, on the run from the orphanage. When she runs into Jonathan, she helps him figure out the mystery of the missing chess pieces and becomes a good friend of his.

Lilly: Hello!

Charity: Hello.

Lilly: So, what exactly are we supposed to talk about?

Charity: Anything you like.

Lilly: Hmmmm..... That's a tough decision. How about telling me something about myself that I didn't know?

Charity: Something you didn't know? You mean like, something behind the scenes, why I did something and so forth?

Lilly: Yeah, like that!

Charity: Hmmm.... Did you know that your name wasn't originally Lilly?

Lilly: It wasn't?

Charity: Nope. You were a character that I created before I started writing The End of Chess. Your name was Peggy, based off of Simon and Garfunkel's song, Peggy-O.

Lilly: Why did you change it?

Charity: ...You know, for the life of me, I cannot remember! I think I just didn't want people to know that you were based off of Peggy-O.

Lilly: That's so cool!

Charity: I thought so too.

Lilly: Is that all?

Charity: Huh? Oh, yeah, I suppose so. Good day to you, Lilly.

Lilly: Good day!
