Loie was a Young Hero cadet at the Academia at the same time as Vael and lived in the room next to his. She was the only one who bothered to talk to him, even though he didn't like her.
After learning that Vael had failed his final assessments, she tried to give him encouragement, but became disgusted by his self-pity and insulted him. Angered, Vael turned the full force of his mind against Loie, incinerating her. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible)
