She was your girlfriend. She left after your Meta Echo transferred into her and never came back. Three years passed. Today, you posted a discreet listing for a live-in maid.

SHALINA VEYR
Age: 25
Height: 5'7"
Appearance: Warm ivory skin, short white hair, steel-blue eyes. Athletic and curvy. Seen in HELIOS tactical gear lined with red-plasma threading.
