Having felt useless in her home nation to [[Calanfer]], with her [Princess] class being stuck at Level 5, she ran away to Izril. After being "hired" by [[Erin Solstice|Erin]] (AKA rescued from freezing to death after being exiled for theft and arson), Lyonette was horrified when she gained the [Barmaid] [[Classes|class]] - claiming it to be a "peasant class"- and displayed disgust at the idea of performing menial tasks and serving commoners. However, when Erin was stranded in [[Celum]], Lyonette was left alone in the inn. Facing starvation and loneliness, she changed her attitude for the better, earning coin by feeding Pawn and the [[Painted Antinium]], trying to make amends for the [[Krshia Silverfang|people she hurt]], and finding companionship with Mrsha. By the time of Erin's return, Lyonette became a better person, finding value in work and levelling in her classes.

Lyonette is content in her life in The Wandering Inn, being responsible for managing the inn and staff, and being a mother to Mrsha.<ref>[[Chapter 5.24 L]]</ref> Although she temporarily lost her [Princess] class after no longer feeling like one due to her occupation, but regains the consolidated class [Worldly Princess] instead. Having felt useless for years, Lyonette's self-worth is tied to her helpfulness; amusingly, as the inn grew more successful and the staff more competent, she has grown more purposeless having less work to do.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.42 E}}</ref> She makes an effort to uphold the values of her class whenever she can, teaching Mrsha various Terandrian customs such as cursive and fashion. Lyonette can be prim and proper, displaying horror at the idea of showing skin at the beach, and telling Mrsha and [[Nanette Weishart|Nanette]] to avoid [[Xesci|a visiting [Prostitute]]].

She goes to Riverfarm with Erin and Mrsha. While there, she meets [Witch] [[Eloise du Havin|Eloise]], who is something of an infamous figure back in Terandria.

When Erin confronts the [[Korizan Reeles|leader]] of the [[Bloodfeast Raiders]] via her [World's Eye Theatre], he orders a Deathslayer Arrow to be targeted at Lyonette. While she is evacuated to the [Garden of Sanctuary], [[Lormel|Ser Lormel]] draws the arrow towards him with [Decoy: My Ward], successfully blocking it at the cost of losing his right arm. <ref>{{VERef|9.41 (Pt. 3)}}</ref>
Lyonette sends her [Boon of the Princess] to Moore to fight the monster horde at [[Orefell]].  


Erin turns one of her [Gardens of Sanctuary] into a public beach, opening it to her guests. While everyone else is enjoying it, Lyonette has social anxiety, realizing that other than managing the inn and taking care of Mrsha, the [Princess] has no hobbies or close friends. While going for a walk in the snow, she encounters [[Bethal Walchaís]] and [[Pryde Ulta]], who are competing with each other with surviving outside in the freezing cold for a week. While trying to catch a Flatfish and unsuccessfully start a fire (unknowingly becoming the subjects of a viral scrying recording titled ''A [Princess] and a [Lady] Versus a Fish),'' the three women are rescued by [[Colfa val Lischelle-Drakle]] and are taken to the Lischelle-Drakles' new farm nearby. Returning to the beach, they become newfound friends.<ref>{{VERef|9.43 L}}</ref> After [[Ilvriss Gemscale|Wall Lord Ilvriss]]'s return to Liscor and Erin's disastrous attempt to ingratiate him with the Human nobility, Lyonette becomes Ilvriss's new liason.<ref>{{VERef|9.53}}</ref>

During the Winter Solstice, Lyonette, the children, and the Thronebearers are in [[Magnolia Reinhart|Magnolia Reinhart's]] mansion in [[Invrisil]] when they are attacked by [[Draugr]].

After the Night of Bloodtear, with a [[Fraerlings|Fraerling]]-sized Erin stranded in [[Baleros]], Lyonette has become the acting [Innkeeper] of The Wandering Inn, with her class advancing to [Princess of the Inn].<ref>{{VERef|Volume 9 – Epilogue}}</ref> Lyonette is struggling with the inn's finances, as there are fewer guests and The Wandering Inn's relationship with Liscor becoming "complicated." She is also forced to deal with her daughters, Mrsha and Nanette, as well as two high-priority guests, Sammial and Hethon, who are trying to track down the ironwood wand on behalf of the Gladelords. Lyonette reluctantly reaches out to her mother, Queen [[Ielane du Marquin]], barely managing to justify staying in Izril, as well as receiving promises new staff and funding if she helps Calanfer's efforts in the New Lands. The inn discovers Erin's new Level 50 Skill, the [Box of Incontinuity]. Fearful of the box, Lyonette bans everyone from touching it, but Calescent surreptitiously puts a garlic bulb inside it, and accidentally discovers that it can seemingly endlessly spit out duplicates of garlic.<ref>{{VERef|10.00 L}}</ref>
After the Night of Bloodtear, with Erin stranded in [[Baleros]], Lyonette has become the acting [Innkeeper] of The Wandering Inn.  
 
When reaching out to Colfa LIschelle-Drakle in search of a female friend, she is disheartened when she overhears the Vampire family's financial woes.  Lyonette goes to a public forum in Liscor to negotiate a space for the [[Rheirgest]] villagers, but is faced with hostility from two of the inn's friends, [[Palt Fenrisol|Palt]] and [[Selys Shivertail|Selys]] who blame Erin and the inn for Imani's injuries and [[Tekshia Shivertail]]'s death respectively. When Valeterisa and [[Teriarch|Demsleth]] confirms the garlic's authenticity, Lyonette decides to use the box to create gold.<ref>{{VERef|10.01 L}}</ref>
 
Lyonette is given a <Mythical Quest> by Erin to "Keep the Wandering Inn Safe Until I Return>. The [Princess] is unnerved by the optional, impossible condition of "Don't let anyone we love die," but is determined to achieve it, especially when backed with literal mountains of gold inside the [Garden of Sanctuary]. She meets with Hexal to confirm the start of The Wandering Inn's reconstruction based on the Naga [Architect's] and Drevish's blueprints. The Order of Solstice returns with the Rheirgest villagers, who are unable to go to their allocated plot of land due to it being occupied by Drakes protesting the villagers' [Necromancer] classes. Lyonette negotiates on their behalf with Liscor's council, but has less fruitful meetings with Invrisil's [Mayor] and the Merchant's Guild, who have both banned dealing with Rhiergest, all the while slowly realizing that gold can't solve everything.<ref>{{VERef|10.13}}</ref> 
 
Multiple nations have realized that The Wandering Inn has a truly massive fortune of gold and sends their [Diplomats] to speak with Lyonette. She has a meeting with Diplomat] Zaltha from the [[Empire of Sands]], who is trying to get her to buy several hundred tons of [[Chemath marble]].  While fending off unwanted attention from interested groups and parties and Hexel and Bird revealing there aren't enough workers in Liscor to start construction on the new inn, Lyonette is forced to deal with her daughters' and the staff's newfound buying frenzy, the final straw being when several Antinium who were given fortunes of gold by [[Rosencrantz]] and the other Antinium staff members suffered mental breakdowns. Lyonette sets new standards of spending the gold, setting up a "Helpful Inn Fund" to give smaller, more discrete amounts of gold to others in need. Her spirits are further bolstered when Rheirgest decides to help construct the new inn, and offers to have their village be constructed a mile away from The Wandering Inn. However, Lyonette is put on high alert when [[Rhisveri Zessoprical]] breaks into the inn via sock puppet simulacrum to steal the wand, and when [[Tolveilouka Ve’delina Mer|Tolveilouka]] is caught lurking around the inn. While both are driven off, Lyonette knows it's only a matter of time before they return which spurns her to Erin-levels of craziness and determination.<ref>{{VERef|10.14}}</ref> She begins with hiring new security for the inn, stealing away [[Todi]] and his [[Todi’s Elites|Elites]] away from Selys (getting into a fist fight with the [Heiress] in the process) and also [[Gemhammer]], [[Vaulont|Vaulont the Ash]], and more relucantly, [[Elia Arcsinger]]. She also has  second, more successful interactions with Invrisil's [Mayor] and Merchant Guild. Lyonette meets the [[Quarass]] and the [[Inreza|King of Minotaurs]] via the [World's Eye Theatre], using <Quests> as loopholes to bank gold with their respective nations, while the Quarass advises her on how to deal with Tolveilouka. She also arranges to buy the Chemath marble from the Empire of Sands. 
 
That night, Lyonette holds a high-stakes poker game with Rhisveri, Tolveilouka, Teriarch, [[Taletevirion|Taletivirion]], the Quarass, Fetohep, and Queen Ielane. The [Princess] manages to bankrupt Tolveilouka, and has her mother use her contract Skills to force the undead half-Elf away from the inn. Afterwards, Lyonette levels five times in her [Princess] class.<ref>{{VERef|10.15}}</ref>
