Kieth met Aphrodite at one of his shows. She introduced herself as Lilac. It was pretty much instant attraction. The two were perfect for each other and totally in love. They spent two months together, until Aphrodite had to return to Olympus, but not before falling pregnant. 3 months after Aphrodite left, a gilded stroller turned up on the doorstep with a note that read 'Protect our daughter'
Kieth named his daughter after his lost love and doted on her, giving her everything she wanted.
Growing up, Lilac fitted in very well. She had lots of friends and many admirers. She found it hard to be normal with ADHD and dyslexia, but she mangaged well, not letting her disabilities define her. She was a wild child, taking up many sports, such as ice-skating, fencing, gymnastic and dance.
When she was thirteen, she was practicing a da ce routine in her yard when a supposedly lost dog wandered into her yard. She called He animal loving friend Beth, because she was a volunteer at an animal shelter, for help with the dog, and left to buy it some food. When she returned, Beth was fighting off the 'dog' that had transformed into a chimera. Beth threw the bracelet she always wore to her and it morphed into a well balanced sword with silver lettering on the hilt that read 'Erastís'. She somehow knew that meant lover.
As Beth was trained and Lilac had done fencing and knew how to handle herself with a weapon, they were able to formulate a plan. Beth distracted the chimera, Lilac snuck up behind the beast and delivered a lethal blow.
Beth revealed she was a saytr and told her that the bracelet was a gift from her mother, Aphrodite. She tried to take her to Camp Half Blood, but Lilac refused, because she wanted to stay with her dad.
Six months later, Lilac was walking home when she was attacked by styphalian birds. Because Beth had given her lessons on how to survive alone, she knew to blast music from her iPhone and make loud screams and noises. Eventually, the birds ceased the attack and retreated.
The attack made Beth more determined to get Her to safety, but it only made Lilac more certain she was right. After all, she handled that attack fine.
Lilac became overconfident after the attack, often leaving her bracelet at home. so, when a harpy attacked her while Beth was in the bathroom when she was fifteen, She was woefully unprepared. Foretunately, Beth returned just in time and killed the harpy.
Lilac finally agreed to go to camp and has been there for two days.
