Daileen is Malencia Vale's best friend from the Five Lakes Colony.

History[]

Early Life[]

Daileen has been best friends with Cia since the age of three, and is only two weeks younger than Cia. She was not enrolled in school until the mandatory age of six; Cia was enrolled at five, making her an academic year behind Cia. She is a shy and gentle person, and it is only with Cia’s pushing that she has any social interaction with others. Her mother died two years prior to the start of the story in an accident, and her father isn't around much.

At one point during The Testing, Cia remembers how Daileen's father taught her and Daileen how to shoot a gun, pointing out that Daileen was a better shot than she was.

The Testing[]

Main article: The Testing

Daileen is excited that Cia has been selected for Testing, but sad to see her friend leave, vowing to study hard over the next year so she, too, can be selected and join Cia in Tosu City. On Cia’s last night in the colony, she asks Lyane, another girl from Five Lakes, to look after Daileen and make sure she has a friend. Lyane agrees. Daileen is mentioned periodically throughout the series, but she never makes another appearance.

Daileen writes Cia a birthday card when she has her birthday party at the end of The Testing.
