 Ailia excels at data collection, automatically updating the player's various **Codices** throughout the game. This includes things such as the likes/dislikes of other characters, item drops & drop rates of Dessimals, and more.

-If all of the conditions are met, the player will awaken one day to find Ianthe and Ailia having a discussion about **Prima Cantor**, with Ianthe positing that it might be able to give Ailia a human body. The player will then be able to accompany Ianthe and Ailia to Prima Cantor, whereupon Ailia will take a human form. (Although she retains her wings, they are only functional in The Unda.) She will profess her love for the protagonist, the protagonist will propose, and the three will vow to live together as a family.

+Of note: Although Ailia's body is //ostensibly// human, she, like Ianthe, is an **Echo**, meaning that she cannot inhabit the main universe outside of Geodes connected to her point of origin. For both Ianthe and Ailia, that is Cyrus' Geosphere and any Geodes connected to it via bridges.
