Milla Kresnik

Milla Kresnik is an unseen non-playable character properly introduced in Tales of Xillia 2. Her existence was hinted in Tales of Xillia where she was mistakenly identified as a man and was known as "Kresnik the Genesis Sage."

History
Milla was one of the first Kresniks. She was the first person who was able to summon Maxwell. The two got to know each other and Milla went as far as developing a strong feeling towards him and composing a playful tune, where one of the lyrics consisted of something along the "appear before me or I'll tuch your beard" line. Milla's belief in the peaceful coexistence of humans and spirits as well as invention of spyrix technology resulted in Maxwell, Chronos, and Origin forming a test which was meant as a measure of humanity's worthiness known as "Origin's Trial". To help humanity in the test, Chronos bestowed on the clan the power of chromatus and Milla was caught in the middle of the clan's war to pass the Trial. At some point, Maxwell decided to create a land where humans and spirits could actually live in harmony without the fear of spyrix threteaning spirits' existence and invited Milla and his followers to join him in the new land, but Milla refused and Maxwell took it as betrayal. In reality, Milla couldn't stand for a land that was meant as a safe haven for a selected few people. However, her last name somehow managed to grow a legend on the new land.

During the war, Milla used too much of her power and became a divergence catalyst just before she was about to die which resulted in her creating the first fractured dimension. The story of this fractured dimension was different from what occured in the prime dimension as Maxwell believed in her and the clan war never took place. She was reborn in that world as herself with no memories of her past and being that dimension's divergence catalyst.

In her dimension, Milla and her children gathered the Waymarkers of Canaan, however the last one, the Strongest Chromatus Bearer, required the sacrifice of her grandson, Kurt Will Kresnik. This Waymarker was brought to Milla by Kurt's fiancée, Lalle Lara Travis. When Milla and Lalle asked Chronos to build the bridge to Canaan he requested a "proof" of the pact. Lalle interpreted his words as a requirement for another sacrifice and killed Milla withour hesitation before the latter could say anything. During her final moments, Milla's memories of the prime dimension returned to her and realized that she was living in a "possible world" rather than a "true one" where the Land of Canaan actually existed. She begged Chronos to spare Lalle and Milla's divergence catalyst core was transferred to Lalle's unborn child.

Appearance and Personality
Milla was cheerful and curious girl, also being a bit mischievious as evidenced by the lyrics she wrote for "Hymn of Proof". She believed that humans and spirits could live together in harmony.
