History

Lin appears next after Haku introduces Chihiro to the workers at the bathhouse. Haku names Chihiro Lin's assistant, depite Lin's protests. In front of the other workers, particularly the frogs, Lin is cold to Chihiro. However, she takes a warmer tone towards her as soon as they are alone, saying that she was worried about her.
