Biography[edit | edit source]
In August 751,[1] she led a group of Central Asian Hidden Ones out along the Talas River on a hunt for troops of the Abbasid Caliph al-Saffah. There, they arrived at the site of the Battle of Talas just after it had finished and saved the life of a young Tang soldier named Li E.[1] Through this chance meeting, Li E was recruited into their organization,[1] with Éléna instructing him in their principles, martial arts, and acrobatics.[2] At some point after that, al-Saffah's men besieged Éléna and her companions, and they were killed in battle—only Li E survived to escape.[3]
Skills and abilities[edit | edit source]
Éléna was fluent in the Persian language which she used as a common language of communication among her fellow Hidden Ones. At the time of her first meeting with Li E, however, she could neither speak nor understand Chinese, and this language barrier led to the Tang soldier momentarily mistaking her for a hostile.[1] By 754, she and Li E had learned to communicate in a common tongue well enough for her to properly instruct him in the ways of the Hidden Ones.[2]
Éléna was skilled at using twin sabers from horseback. When the suspicious Li E attacked her on impulse upon her greeting, she was able to fend off his strikes and disarm him despite being taken aback.[1]
