Trivia

Even though Loughshinny is a timid introvert, she is nevertheless a born leader saving the oppressed Tarans

As a direct descendant of the legendary Taran Gaelic Kings possessing the royal Draco bloodline, Loughshinny Dublinn had been an introverted girl living behind the shadow of her more ambitious elder sister Eblana. However, her life changed when their parents were unfortunately assassinated by the Aslan forces amidst a bloody Christmas and the purge of their hometown County Oak Grove. Thanks to their bloodline, the sisters were then raised up by other aristocrats supporting Taran separatism and were educated by a nationalistic noble, the Earl of Warwick. By the time Eblana founded the Dublinn armed forces seven years ago (the year 1091), the indecisive girl was forced to be a shadow of her, taking the role of its pseudo-"Leader."

Years of killing have made Loughshinny weary of herself, and she has been wishing to end her own life despite the ardent support of her followers. And then, another life-changing moment arrived when she conducted the sacking of County Hillock. The Originium dirty bomb shelling ordered by Colonel Hamilton almost took away her life as she contacted severe Oripathy, but fortunately, Outcast rescued her from the disaster although it came with the cost of her own sacrifice.

After being brought to Rhodes Island, Loughshinny received lots of attentions due to her uniqueness. In fact, she seeks to become R.I.'s operator under a new codename "Reed," describing herself to be a "nondescript existence" that wishes to start a new life there. Even Eblana tacitly approved her stay as she wishes to use her to monitor R.I.'s movement due to the presence of her political opposer—the Aslan exile Alexandriana. Nevertheless, Loughshinny has chosen a new path of embracing her Taran identity, leading the Taran common folks, and ending the Victorian Crisis that plagues the Tarans as well. The burning reed will soon spread its fire across the field.

Reed's alternate version Reed the Flame Shadow was introduced alongside What the Firelight Casts.
