Dill (formerly Iwan) is a character found in Greenthumb Gardens in the game Dragon Quest VII.

History

Dill is the son of Burdock, the owner of Greenthumb Gardens' herb garden. He falls in love with Lavender, one of his father's servants. He proposes to marry her, which would eliminate her debt. He is jealous of Carraway who he feels is monopolizing Lavender's affection. At the same time, Cayenne, a servant, is in love with Dill. She tries to have Dill return her affections but he spurns her advances.

One day, as he is looking out the garden, he sees Lavender and Carraway talking. It is at this time that a Gray Rain begins to fall. This is caused by Rainiac. The rain turns all of the residents to stone.

Greenthumb Gardens

After the party defeats the Rainmaker and uses the Angel Tears, Dill sees that Carraway has fallen on top of Lavender. Believing that this is too forward even for Carraway, Dill rushes to the garden. He finds out that Carraway, in his zeal to protect Lavender, put himself on top of her to protect her from the Gray Rain. He becomes stiff and unresponsive due to the effects of overexposure. Dill has Carraway taken to his house.

He tries to console Lavender but is rebuff by the depressed woman. This causes him to complain that Carraway is still monopolizing her affections.

When the party cures Pepe, Dill decides that his father should throw a party to celebrate his recovery. Burdock also uses this feast to announce Dill's engagement to Lavender. Unfortunately, rain begins to fall. Fearing that it is the Gray Rain, everyone runs for shelter. Inside, Dill and Cayenne are talking about Lavender when suddenly, she kisses him. Dill removes himself from her embrace. Cayenne spits out that this is probably what Lavender and Carraway are doing but he refuses to believe it.

When Carraway leaves town without a word, Dill tries to console Lavender but she rebuffs him again.

Interim

Dill eventually marries Lavender. Lavender gives birth to a son whom she names Carrington. Sometime during the interim, Dill loses his mansion and his garden to Dand E. Lion. He is now a worker in the field, and is prone to drinking. It got so bad for Liavender that she ran away from Greenthumb Gardens.

30 Years Later

Dill is working in the field with his son, Carrington. He is quite lazy and doesn't finish the work that he needs to do. He goes to his house. Later, he is visited by Cayenne who still has feelings for him. Dill still rebuffs her, telling her that it is pointless to reminiscence about the past. He notices that she still has the rope that he made for her and that it is in tatters. He asks Cayenne if she wants to replace it. Cayenne refuses, saying that she likes it.

When Cayenne is revealed to have poisoned Dand E. Lion, Dill comes in and tells Mr. Lion that she poisoned her on his orders. Dand E. Lion throws both Cayenne and Dill out of his house and Greenthumb Gardens. Dill tells Cayenne to come with him. Cayenne says that she doesn't have anything packed but he tells her that they can get what they need elsewhere. They leave the town together, never to be heard from again.
