Biography
Magical Vacation
After saving Kirsch from Varukaneira, the party visited Mille-Feuille and her grandfather Chiffon in their house. Ganache asked if they could be given access to the Benakoncha Ruins in order to reach Wakuti Village, but Chiffon was concerned over how late it was. He offered to give the party an ukuru's feather in the morning, and Mille-Feuille volunteered to guide them through the ruins. The next morning, a puppet was found dead in the middle of the village, bringing Mille-Feuille to tears. She told Chiffon of the murder, which was one of many serial killings that had taken place in Torūna Village. Chiffon stated that it could not be helped, fearing that the puppet tribe's end may be the will of their God. He allowed Mille-Feuille to grieve, after which she led the party to the ruins.
Arriving at the base of the ruins, Mille-Feuille was met by the innkeeper Tiramisu, who ordered her to relinquish her heart. By doing so, he could give it to the corpse of his brother Mousse, as his heart malfunctioned after falling off a cliff two hundred years ago. Denying that is brother was truly dead, Tiramisu lunged at Mille-Feuille and reached for her heart. However, he fled to the Benakoncha Ruins as the party rushed in to help. Mille-Feuille continued to guide the party despite being injured, bringing them to the ruins' guardian snowhair. They managed to defeat it, then Tiramisu appeared from behind a pillar. Mille-Feuille insisted she talk things over with Tiramisu in private, not wanting the party to be involved in the puppets' affairs. She begged for Tiramisu to stop killing Torūna's villagers, to which Kirsch furiously demanded he be handed over to Chiffon. Mille-Feuille refused, as Tiramisu would be beaten to death if he were turned in. Tiramisu proceeded to leave the ruins and ordered Mille-Feuille to meet him at his lodge, so she and the party followed.
At the shrine, Tiramisu secretly watched Mille-Feuille run to the village, unaware of his presence. He was then confronted by Ganache, who scolded him for possibly still wanting to kill Mille-Feuille for her heart. When Tiramisu saw Ganache cast dark magic, he was chased back to Torūna Village and killed with a mijote spell. The party and Mille-Feuille found Tiramisu's wounded body next to Mousse's at the lodge, and in his dying breath, he wished for Mousse to have his heart. Mille-Feuille lamented over the death of yet another puppet, staying with Tiramisu while the party talked with Ganache outside. From then on, Mille-Feuille took on the role of Torūna's innkeeper.
Nomenclature
