Eden has a very strong sense of loyalty which combines poorly with her difficulty understanding darker motives such as envy and greed. Though embittered by her experiences she is fundamentally a curious and generous person. She has some difficulty processing negative emotions and is prone to bouts of dark thinking.
Eden's thought process is very alien due to the combination of human traits she took on when she befriended Eve with her dryad heritage. Dryads minds function fundamentally differently from humans owing to their lack of a centralized brain, taking far longer to form thought but able to store exponentially more information than the human brain. They have vastly different priorities which stress balance and tranquility even over self-preservation and lack even a sense of fairness. Eden altered herself fundamentally by taking on forms outside of her tree, while she had already accessed quicker thought processes through her deer form mirroring Eve gave Eden the ability to think abstractly as well as sense of individualism. Because her true form is not designed to processes these things or even intense emotions and there is no way to unknow them Eden often has difficulty understanding and communicating with the world around her. She is too human to be a dryad and too dryad to be human, trapped at a halfway point not meant to exist.
