"For us 人类, being forgotten is a much worse fate than death."
— Lora
Lora (Japanese: ラウラ, Raura, Laura) is a character in 异度神剑 2. She was a Tor楠Driver during the Aegis War, and her Blades were Haze and Jin. She and Haze shared an incredibly close bond, reflected in their nearly identical appearances and personalities. She is the main playable character and protagonist in Torna ~ The Golden Country, in which she is a mercenary searching for her mother Rynea.
At ten years old, Lora resonated with Jin. Gort had stolen Jin's Core Crystal from the Tornan royalty, and when he threatened to kill her in order to keep Jin for himself, Jin stopped him, severing his 右臂 in the process to protect Lora. It was implied that the two went on the run following the event, with Lora taking measures to hide Jin's identity as a stolen Blade. These included a mask that covered the upper half of his face, including his Core Crystal. Lora eventually joined a mercenary group. At an 未知 point, Lora also resonated with Haze, whose extremely close bond to Lora leads them to look near identical.
Aegis War
Seventeen years later, Lora is searching for her mother Rynea, who she has been separated from for some time. Whilst travelling through the Lasaria Region Lora and Jin find Mikhail in the ruins of Porton Village and offer to take care of him. They also encounter one of Malos' Gargoyles, an Artifice, and Addam and Mythra save them from the Artifice by using Siren's power. Addam is surprised to see that Jin has resonated with someone as young as Lora. After a brief battle, Addam decides not to bring in Lora for "stealing" Jin, and Lora eventually becomes one of Addam's allies. The quartet are soon joined by Haze and Milton, and the party heads to Torigoth, where Haze reports Rynea to be staying.
Lora finds her mother's necklace
Unfortunately, Torigoth has been razed. The party travels to a cemetery and find a charm that Lora made for Rynea adorning a 墓碑. The group is accused by the ardainian army of being Coe伊恩 rebels who destroyed Torigoth. Luckily, the arrival of the Ardainian Emperor 雨果, a friend of Addam's, helps 晴天 up the situation and 雨果, along with his Blades Brighid and Aegaeon, join the group. Lora and Haze stay behind in Torigoth in order to decorate the 墓碑 while the 其它 travel to the Ardainian Warship. Gort and his group of mercenaries manage to 奇袭作战 Lora and Haze. Gort, now having a new mechanical arm, intends to kill Lora to reclaim Jin as his blade. Realising what is happening, Jin rushes back to Lora and cuts off both of Gort's arms. At Lora's request, Jin doesn't kill Gort and lets him escape.
Eventually, the group returns to the Kingdom of Torna, where they learn of Malos's plan to 袭击 Auresco. While stopping in Hyber Village, Jin and Lora explore the house of Jin's former Driver, Ornelia. Jin finds his old journal but keeps it hidden from Lora, and Lora prompts the entire group to take a picture together.
Lora is knighted
As Malos attacks Auresco, the party manages to stave off part of Malos's attack, but ultimately are unsuccessful in preventing Malos from reaching the seal on Torna's power. Nevertheless, their bravery prompts Addam's 父亲, the Tornan King, to knight Lora the day after the 袭击, much to the ire of High Prince Zettar. Lora then 加入 Addam on the journey to the Titan's core to stop Malos. In the final showdown with Malos, the Tornan Titan sinks beneath the Cloud Sea.
Aftermath and Death
After the war, Lora, Haze, Jin, and Mikhail part ways with Addam as he and Pyra journey to Leftheria. She travels to Spessia, where members of Addam's militia and 其它 Tornans have taken refuge. One 夜间 the group is ambushed by Gort, who has been 变身后的样子 into a large chimera-like creature. Lora kills him, and he dissolves into black ashes. Lora remarks that her mother can finally rest peacefully now that Gort is dead.
Lora dies
Amalthus became Praetor and ambushed Spessia in an effort to destroy the Aegis, not knowing that Addam and Pyra had fled to Leftheria. Lora is fatally wounded in the 奇袭作战 and regretted the thought that Jin would forget her; Jin, devastated that he would be reborn and lose his memories of Lora, sought to become a Flesh Eater, and ate her heart to keep their 精灵 together. Her body was frozen on board the Marsanes to remind Jin to never have faith in the 設計士.
As Jin departs for the World Tree, he instructs Mikhail to keep Lora safe for him. The Marsanes later 变身后的样子 into a Titan-like mech. Mikhail, piloting the Marsanes, slammed Indol into the World Tree, and the ensuing massive 爆炸 destroyed the Titan, the Marsanes, and Lora's body.

Post-Battle Dialogue
Lora
"You really do have a lot of trouble keeping your power in check, don’t you, Mythra?"
Mythra
"It’s not my fault my 敌人 fall over when I so much as look at ‘em funny."
Jin
"…I would rather not cross swords with her again, if I can avoid it."
Mythra
"With me here, it was obvious we were gonna win."
Jin
"Presumptuous, aren't you?"
Mythra
"Hm? What was that now?"
Lora
"Easy now, guys. We're all friends here."
Haze
"Wow, I never thought we’d find ourselves in the company of emperors and princes."
Lora
"It's funny, isn't it? Almost like we've been dropped straight into a fairytale."
Haze
"Life is a many splendored thing indeed."
Lora
"I couldn't agree more. Let's make the most of it, shall we?"
Haze
"Oh, Lady Lora, look. Your sleeve is starting to fray."
Lora
"Clothes get torn in battle. There's no way around it, really."
Haze
"We both know that when your whole outfit unravels, you'll just end up wanting to borrow mine."
Haze
"异刃连击, third stage!"
Lora
"Awesome!"
Minoth
"Why does that sound so familiar?"
雨果
"This is my first time travelling like this! It's quite… refreshing."
Lora
"Oh, really? Then why don't we do something to celebrate?"
Haze
"That means it's time to party! Gather round, everyone!"
雨果
"What? Oh, that wasn't what I… N-no, hold on!"
Haze
"Master Aegaeon is a… finely sculpted Blade, isn't he?"
Lora
"He's got a very stable core, doesn't he? He must have incredible balance. And that form!"
Aegaeon
"I would… appreciate it if you could stop staring, now. You're making me blush."
Addam
"We make such a wonderful team, you and I!"
Lora
"Don't we! I'm about as nimble as you are, uh, royal!"
Addam
"I'll drink to that!"
Addam
"This is no good. I've got to get a hold of myself."
Lora
"You're always looking ahead, Addam. Aren't you forgetting something?"
Addam
"Oh? Such as?"
Lora
"Just don't 肩 all the burden yourself. You have us to rely on too, sometimes."
Minoth
"Sorry about that. I wasn't paying enough attention."
Lora
"Don't worry yourself. We all make mistakes."
Addam
"Oh, diddums. Shall I kiss it better for you?"
Minoth
"Stuff a sock in it, clown!"
Lora
"You're really quite wise in the way of the world, aren't you, 雨果. Think you could teach me a few anecdotes?"
Addam
"Ahah, are you sure about that? He's quite the stern task master."
雨果
"If you wish Lora. By tomorrow, please transcribe one hundred pages of one of the tornan epics, write a treaty on an ardainian philosopher of your choice, and read a volume of History."
Lora
"Er, 很抱歉, the dog ate all of my literature."
Lora
"Ahah, that'll teach them. Never underestimate the power of the common folk."
雨果
"Indeed. The emperor bestows his gratitude."
Addam
"Kind of giving the wrong impression there, 雨果."
Minoth
"You're quite the skilled woman at arms, Lora! Still not quite a match for my experience, though."
Lora
"Oh you think so, do you? I'm not gonna take that lying down. Come on! Arm wrestling time!"
Minoth
"Arm wrestling?! N-no, thank you, that won't be necessary."
Lora
"Is everyone alright? No injuries?"
Minoth
"Hmpf, do we really have the time to get all soft right now?"
雨果
"He means "Thank you for your concern"."
Minoth
"Hey, I can speak for myself, thank you very much."
Lora
"How are you managing there, 雨果? Not too tiring for you?"
雨果
"Hm? No, I'm quite alright. It will take more than this level of fighting to put me down."
Aegaeon
"Uh… Beg pardon, Lady Lora, but worrying about His Majesty's well-being is part of MY responsibilities."
Brighid
"Lora, have you ever considered writing a diary?"
Lora
"I've thought about it, actually. But in all honesty, Brighid, I'm happiest keeping all my memories here, in my heart."
Lora
"My hair has really been getting in the way whenever I fight. Time for the fringe to go."
Aegaeon
"A good idea. 'twould help bring out your beautiful eyes."
Lora
"Oh, you think so? Well, 感谢, I suppose."
Lora
"I don't know how long it will take. But eventually, I want to be strong enough to protect all of you."
Aegaeon
"I feel the same, Lora. Let us strive toward this goal together."
Lora
"Thank you Aegaeon. I'm glad to have you with us."
Condition: After departure from the Militia Garrison
Mythra
"I'm getting some awkward vibes between you and Jin, Lora. Is it complicated?"

Haze
"Don't worry, Lady Lora. I'm still your number one fan."
Condition: After departure from the Militia Garrison
Lora
"Ahah, eat that! Alright, who else want some?"

Condition: After Minoth joins
Lora
"Ah, what a merry band of 冒险者 we are, eh Jin?"

Condition: After Minoth joins

Condition: After the attack on Auresco
Mythra
"Say, Lora. What do you do when the going gets tough?"
Lora
"Well, I… suppose I start thinking about the people dearest to me."
Mythra
"Loved ones, uh. Solid plan..."
Lora
"Right. And after that, it's hard not to end up grinning like an idiot!"
Condition: After Lora becomes a knight of Torna
Addam
"I'll see this through to the end. Whatever it takes."
Lora
"To the end? Don't go getting any funny ideas, now."
Addam
"Pardon? Lora, I think you're reading into that a little too much."
Lora
"Fine, fine. Just take care of yourself, alright? I want us all to share the same future."
