Elehayym Van Houten

Elly is Fei's literal soul mate -- she was made to be his constant companion; and the first day they met, it was obvious that they would fall in love. But until disc two, you don't really know just how much of that was destined to be from the beginning.

Elly did fall in love with Fei -- just as she has for the last ten thousand years. It's revealed in the flashbacks that 'Elehayym Van Houten' is really just one in a long string of women who are the same soul. Elly was Sophia of Nisan, Elly of Zeboim (Kim's wife), and the Elly of Abel's time -- She's always the same person; kind, caring, motherly, and completely devoted to all of Fei's incarnations. Every lifetime, she's sacrificed her own life to preserve his, and those around her, out of the Mother's love.

Krelian and Miang were aware of her true nature, unfortunately, and they used it against her -- after the rise of the Eldrige, Fei and the others sent to inspect it were captured and held hostage against Elly's presence; when she went to save them, she was given the choice of fighting for their lives or watching them die. She confronted Krelian's creations and destroyed them with her latent power, but fell unconscious after using up her energy reserves. The others were freed, but Elly was taken to Merkava, where, after Ramsus snapped and killed Miang, Elly herself was absorbed by her other half; she became Miang's next incarnation.

But in the end, Elly won out -- her will overwhelmed Miang's, and when Fei destroyed Urobolus, she was set free, and the cycle binding them was broken.
