{{translation|'''Milly'''|ミレーユ|Mirēyu}} is a playable party member in {{Dragon Quest VI}} and major character in its prequel, {{DQM}}. In the former game, she is the second character to join forces with the {{Hero 6}} and in the latter her absence drives the plot forward.

Milly dresses in a blue overcoat with white pants and blouse, and a breastplate from which her yellow streamers extend. Her accessories include a tiara with matching necklace, and two silver wristbands.
Milly dresses in a blue overcoat with white pants and blouse, and a breastplate from which her yellow streamers extend and are then wrapped around her waist like a sash. She carries a lavender bag around her waist. Her accessories include a tiara with matching necklace, two silver wristbands, and two plain torcs on her upper arms. She has light green eyes and her long blonde hair reaches past her back and is worn in a silver hairband. Milly is repeatedly described by a wide variety of NPCs as being very beautiful and elegant, traits that have caused her great hardship in the past.


Ever polite and compassionate, Milly keeps a calming, almost motherly air about herself that belies her young age. Though no true facade, this outer personality masks the scars of a harsh childhood, and hides a deeply rooted sense of longing to be close to others. It's because of the somber past that Milly possesses an indomitable sense of courage, as evidenced by her volunteering to assist in the attack on Murdaw's Keep at the beginning of the game.

This is not to say that the young woman is perpetually serious, however; party chant and scripted cut-scenes reveal a sprightliness rivaling [[Ashlynn]]'s, with Milly often succumbing to bouts of laughter and beaming smiles.

Her [[Lucky Dip]] antics further reveal a strong interest in dancing, as well as dabbling in amateur fortune telling.


==Story==
{{clear}}
{{spoiler|start}}
==Appearances==
===Dragon Quest Monsters===
==={{DQ6}}===
In Dragon Quest Monsters, Milly ( dubbed Milayou in the game's localization) is kidnapped during the first scene of the game by a creature known as [[Warubou]], who takes her to [[Greatlog]] for an unknown reason. It is likely that the kingdom was searching for a contender in the Starry Night Tournament, though this is not hinted at. Around the end of the game, when her brother Terry enters the final rounds of the Starry Night Tournament, it is revealed that she is the current champion. Her party consists of a [[metal king slime]], a [[prism peacock]], and a [[coatol]].
{{spoiler|start}}Milly appears alongside the {{Hero 6}} and [[Carver]] in the game's cold opening, about to take on the Dreadfiend [[Murdaw]]. Milly uses a mysterious ocarina to call forth a [[The mysterious dragon|golden dragon]] to fly the group over the ramparts of the monster's castle and infiltrate from the heart of the building.


===Dragon Quest VI===
Before the battle can actually start, [[Murdaw]] ambushes the trio, separating each of their bodies into two essences and banishing one set into the [[Upper World|Dream World]]. While the {{Hero 6}} and [[Carver]]'s [[Lower World|Real World]] counterparts are encountered later in the storyline, Milly's [[Lower World|Real World]] counterpart's fate is not revealed since she has already fused into her original state by the time she is encountered again.
As the story of ''Dragon Quest VI'' unfolds, the player learns that Milly and Terry both lived in [[Felonia]] when they were children. Milly was given to the former king of Felonia as a personal slave, and later imprisoned in the castle's dungeon when she resisted his advances. Milly later escaped, and met up with the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)|hero]] before the first attack on [[Murdaw]].


Later, Milly brought the hero and [[Carver]] to Madame Luca, helping them to become visible in the lower world. Milly then rejoined the hero's party, traveling the worlds until she had found her missing brother, helped defeat [[Mortamor]], and returned peace to the world.
Milly is reunites with the duo in [[Port Haven]], shocking the men as she is the only person who can see them during the invisibility they experience in the [[Lower World]]. Milly keeps quiet on the details as to not shock her friends, but assures them that she is their ally and will help them as much as she can. She brings the {{Hero 6}} and [[Carver]] to [[Madame Luca Luminista]], helping them to become visible in the [[Lower World]] by accompanying them to the [[Lucid Grotto]] to retrieve a substance Madame Luca calls [[List of items in Dragon Quest VI#Incredible Items|Dream dew]]. Milly then rejoins the hero's party, travelling the two worlds to help defeat [[Murdaw]] and uncover the plot of the [[Mortamor|greater evil]] behind the fiend. The group will encounter a swordsman dressed in blue at castle [[Arkbolt]]'s courtyard, with the bursque man pushing past the {{Party 6}} on his way. Milly will lag behind her friends briefly after this, being struck with an intense sense of familiarity and kinship with the man. During subsequent encounters through the game, she will piece together that he is none other than her long-lost brother [[Terry]]. After the events of [[Stormsgate Citadel]], Milly confronts [[Terry]] and the siblings are reunited at last.
{{spoiler|end}}


==Base Stats==
As the story of {{VI}} unfolds, the player learns that Milly and [[Terry]] both lived as orphans in [[Felonia]] when they were children. Milly was sold by her foster parents into slavery to the local crime syndicate, and thereafter to the King of [[Felonia]] as a dancer due to her remarkable beauty. Additional {{NPC}} dialogue indicates she was also locked up in the castle dungeon for a time by the previous Queen of [[Felonia]] out of bitter jealousy simply for being 'too beautiful'. Milly later escaped, and lead an unknown life before meeting up with the {{Hero 6}} before the first attack on [[Murdaw]].


During the ending sequence, Milly returns to Madame Luca's side with [[Terry]] in tow, beginning her apprenticeship under her maternal figure as a fortune teller.{{spoiler|end}}

Milayou is kidnapped during the first scene of the game by a creature known as [[Scruffy|Warubou]], who takes her to [[GreatLog]] for an unknown reason. It is likely that the kingdom was searching for a contender in the Starry Night Tournament, though this is only alluded to and not outright stated.
 
Around the end of the game, when her brother Terry enters the final rounds of the Starry Night Tournament, it is revealed that Milayou has been taking care of herself the entire time and, instead of needing to be rescued, has become the current champion. Her party consists of a [[Metal king slime|MetalKing]], a [[Prism peacock|RainHawk]], and a [[Coatol]].
 
==={{DQMJ3}}===
A golden statue of young Milly appears in the Internet communication plaza in the game, with a plaque that states she was a grand champion who won more than 30 matches in a row with her team.
 
==={{DQMBRII}}===
Milly can be summoned to perform the Master Dragon attack by scanning the [[Angel Eyes]] special card.

==Etymology==
The name Milly is often used as a diminutive of names like ''Camille'', ''Millicent'', and ''Mildred''.<ref>[https://www.behindthename.com/name/milly Milly on Behind the Name]</ref>Mildred is derived from the Old English name Mildþryð, which means "gentle strength", while Millicent derives from the Old French name Melisende. Her name in Japanese (ミレーユ ''Mirēyu'') was probably intended to be ''Mireille'', a name used in both French and Dutch. Mireille is an uncommon name in France, except in the Provence region, and is derived from the Occitan name ''Mirèio''. It is believed to be related to the Occitan verb ''mirar'', which means "to look, to admire" or related to the names ''Miriam'' or ''Maria''.

"In a way we're all searching for ourselves on this quest. I know I am... "

—Milly, in Somnia (DS, Cell phone)

Milly (ミレーユ, Mirēyu?) is a playable party member in Dragon Quest VI and major character in its prequel, Dragon Quest Monsters. In the former game, she is the second character to join forces with the Hero and in the latter her absence drives the plot forward.

Appearance and Personality[edit | edit source]

Milly dresses in a blue overcoat with white pants and blouse, and a breastplate from which her yellow streamers extend and are then wrapped around her waist like a sash. She carries a lavender bag around her waist. Her accessories include a tiara with matching necklace, two silver wristbands, and two plain torcs on her upper arms. She has light green eyes and her long blonde hair reaches past her back and is worn in a silver hairband. Milly is repeatedly described by a wide variety of NPCs as being very beautiful and elegant, traits that have caused her great hardship in the past.

Ever polite and compassionate, Milly keeps a calming, almost motherly air about herself that belies her young age. Though no true facade, this outer personality masks the scars of a harsh childhood, and hides a deeply rooted sense of longing to be close to others. It's because of the somber past that Milly possesses an indomitable sense of courage, as evidenced by her volunteering to assist in the attack on Murdaw's Keep at the beginning of the game.

This is not to say that the young woman is perpetually serious, however; Party Chat and scripted cut-scenes reveal a sprightliness rivaling Ashlynn's, with Milly often succumbing to bouts of laughter and beaming smiles. Her Lucky Dip antics further reveal a strong interest in dancing, as well as dabbling in amateur fortune telling.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation[edit | edit source]

Warning: Spoilers!
Click expand to view content
Milly appears alongside the Hero and Carver in the game's cold opening, about to take on the Dreadfiend Murdaw. Milly uses a mysterious ocarina to call forth a golden dragon to fly the group over the ramparts of the monster's castle and infiltrate from the heart of the building.

Before the battle can actually start, Murdaw ambushes the trio, separating each of their bodies into two essences and banishing one set into the Dream World. While the Hero and Carver's Real World counterparts are encountered later in the storyline, Milly's Real World counterpart's fate is not revealed since she has already fused into her original state by the time she is encountered again.

Milly is reunites with the duo in Port Haven, shocking the men as she is the only person who can see them during the invisibility they experience in the Lower World. Milly keeps quiet on the details as to not shock her friends, but assures them that she is their ally and will help them as much as she can. She brings the Hero and Carver to Madame Luca Luminista, helping them to become visible in the Lower World by accompanying them to the Lucid Grotto to retrieve a substance Madame Luca calls Dream dew. Milly then rejoins the hero's party, travelling the two worlds to help defeat Murdaw and uncover the plot of the greater evil behind the fiend. The group will encounter a swordsman dressed in blue at castle Arkbolt's courtyard, with the bursque man pushing past the party on his way. Milly will lag behind her friends briefly after this, being struck with an intense sense of familiarity and kinship with the man. During subsequent encounters through the game, she will piece together that he is none other than her long-lost brother Terry. After the events of Stormsgate Citadel, Milly confronts Terry and the siblings are reunited at last.

As the story of VI unfolds, the player learns that Milly and Terry both lived as orphans in Felonia when they were children. Milly was sold by her foster parents into slavery to the local crime syndicate, and thereafter to the King of Felonia as a dancer due to her remarkable beauty. Additional NPC dialogue indicates she was also locked up in the castle dungeon for a time by the previous Queen of Felonia out of bitter jealousy simply for being 'too beautiful'. Milly later escaped, and lead an unknown life before meeting up with the Hero before the first attack on Murdaw.

During the ending sequence, Milly returns to Madame Luca's side with Terry in tow, beginning her apprenticeship under her maternal figure as a fortune teller.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies[edit | edit source]

On November 26, 2010, Milly began appearing as a special guest at the Quester's Rest in Stornway. This could be downloaded through the DQVC using Nintendo's Wi-Fi channel when it was still available. When spoken to, she will give the Hero different pieces of her outfit is certain conditions are fulfilled.

The player will receive the Elegant Oneiromancer Accolade for wearing every part of her outfit.

Dragon Quest Monsters[edit | edit source]

Milayou is kidnapped during the first scene of the game by a creature known as Warubou, who takes her to GreatLog for an unknown reason. It is likely that the kingdom was searching for a contender in the Starry Night Tournament, though this is only alluded to and not outright stated.

Around the end of the game, when her brother Terry enters the final rounds of the Starry Night Tournament, it is revealed that Milayou has been taking care of herself the entire time and, instead of needing to be rescued, has become the current champion. Her party consists of a MetalKing, a RainHawk, and a Coatol.

A golden statue of young Milly appears in the Internet communication plaza in the game, with a plaque that states she was a grand champion who won more than 30 matches in a row with her team.

Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road II[edit | edit source]

Milly can be summoned to perform the Master Dragon attack by scanning the Angel Eyes special card. She rides in on the back of the mysterious dragon, then plays her ocarina and calls it forth to breathe out blazing fire at the enemies. Her title in the game is Dream Fortune Teller (夢占い師, Yume uranaishi?).

Dragon Quest Tact[edit | edit source]

Milly appears in the Japanese version of the game in both her original appearance during the True Dragon Quest VI event or in her young appearance from Dragon Quest Monsters. Both are S-rank members of the Hero family.

Etymology[edit | edit source]

The name Milly is often used as a diminutive of names like Camille, Millicent, and Mildred.[1]Mildred is derived from the Old English name Mildþryð, which means "gentle strength", while Millicent derives from the Old French name Melisende. Her name in Japanese (ミレーユ Mirēyu) was probably intended to be Mireille, a name used in both French and Dutch. Mireille is an uncommon name in France, except in the Provence region, and is derived from the Occitan name Mirèio. It is believed to be related to the Occitan verb mirar, which means "to look, to admire" or related to the names Miriam or Maria.
