Biography
Background
After finding out that the sorceress Maleficent has laid an egg with her offspring inside it, Snow White and David Nolan get the Sorcerer's Apprentice to transfer the potential darkness from Snow and David's unborn child into Maleficent's child, before banishing the egg to Earth just before it hatches. The baby is adopted by James and Priscilla Page, and named Lilith, also known as Lily. Lily is baptised on a Sunday in downtown Minneapolis. As she grows up, Lily befriends Emma Swan, and shows her the wonders of shoplifting via credit card. They become friends, until Lily's adoptive father finds them and takes Lily home, despite Lily previously telling Emma that she was alone as well. Emma is upset that Lily lied to her, and ignores all of Lily's efforts to remain in contact with her. Lily's adoptive family eventually kick her out, and she tries to reach out to Emma again, but is rejected. Lily eventually meets the Sorcerer's Apprentice, who tells her everything. Lily then plans her revenge.

Later, at Granny's Diner, Lily tells Emma that she wants to find out the identity of her biological father.

For Isaac Heller, the former author, and his writing were the cause of her condemnation, by altering and making the Charmings and the apprentice do this to her against their will.
