Alecto

Character from The Locked Tomb by Tamsyn Muir

The soul of the dead Earth given human form — John's cavalier, Harrow's obsession, and the most dangerous being in existence, who cannot tell a lie and does not understand why humans keep doing it.

Also known as: Alecto, A.L., The Body, Alecto the First, Nona

What They Know

• The soul of dead Earth, given human form by John Gaius from excess Resurrection energy
• Cannot tell lies — this is a fundamental property of her nature, not a choice
• Achieved perfect Lyctorhood with John through soul-swapping rather than soul-consumption
• Sealed in the Locked Tomb for ten thousand years at the original Lyctors' insistence
• Her body was modeled on a Barbie doll John remembered from his pre-Resurrection life
• When Harrow's soul retreated, Alecto inhabited her body as the amnesiac 'Nona'
• The Resurrection Beasts are the ghosts of the planets John destroyed — Alecto is effectively their kin
