Louise d'Armilly, also known as Leon d'Armilly, begins as Eugénie Danglars' singing teacher and confidante. Her delicate, fairy-like appearance with golden curls and fatigue-veiled eyes masks a complex character who ultimately helps Eugénie escape an unwanted marriage, revealing courage beneath her fragile exterior.

Description

A small, slender young woman with golden hair in long curls falling on her neck, eyes veiled with fatigue. She has delicate, fairy-like features and small white hands. She wears female dress appropriate to a young woman of musical talent, with an ethereal, fragile appearance that suggests both artistic sensitivity and physical delicacy.
