Maomao's Mother
A figure from Maomao's past, deceased before the series begins.
Maomao's mother is a figure from the protagonist's past, mentioned only in the context of her backstory. She is deceased before the events of the series, and her death is a key part of Maomao's history.
Lore & Background
Maomao's mother is introduced solely through backstory, as she died before the events of the series. She does not suffer from syphilis; that condition belongs to a different character, the 'Verigold Lady', who is treated by Luomen. Luomen's medicines are not described as the only treatment for Maomao's mother's condition, because she is not a patient of Luomen.
