Lilia

Lilia was a Hebrew slave and the lover of Joshua. She carried water for Hebrew stonecutters and fell in love with Joshua, who protected her from the intimidating overseer Dathan. When the overseer Baka attempted to take Lilia as one of his house slaves, Joshua rescued her by fighting Baka, and Moses later killed Baka to defend Joshua. Ramesses then gifted Lilia to Dathan as his slave, and she was forced to become his concubine to prevent Joshua from becoming a copper mine slave. She came to accept her status, serving as Dathan's concubine until the Exodus in 1491 BC. Dathan attempted to have her sacrificed to the Golden Calf idol, but Moses killed the nonbelievers by throwing the Ten Commandments tablets at the calf. Lilia was saved, and she went on to marry Joshua.
