Ephenia is the Queen of the Fairies of Ellin Forest. Ephenia and her fairies at one point swore allegiance with the Black Mage, causing great distress to Mercedes and her elves of Elluel. Ephenia and her fairies first made action when Athena Pierce arrived at Victoria Island with Aran's help. After Ephenia's death, peace was brought back to Ellin Forest and the fairies seem to have calmed down a bit.
