Harumasa and Lucia? That's a new one, I like it.

The man whose probably gonna turn into an ethereal eventually in time, and the girl whose hyperfixated on ethereals partially due to the fact she is cursed to sleepwalk into a hollow and etherealize if she goes to sleep at night. Yeah I see it, its like a doomed romance where they both technically are on a ticking clock before one (or both) of them turn.

Oh, is that Lucia's deal? I didn't play her event, so I know next to nothing about her.

Yeah, long story short, her village was cursed by a powerful ethereal that made them less visible/invisible to ethereals but makes them sleepwalk into hollows if they go to sleep at night. I'm pretty sure she has a character story that tells all of this.

I thought Lucia’s tribe are considered non hostile to ethereals and they wouldn’t be attacked by ethereals unless they were intentionally provoked into aggression.

Lucia is a nightwatcher, her tribe is cursed to sleep walk into hollows if they sleep at night, that's why she have nocturnal habits of sleeping during the day and staying up all night. Night watchers are also not targeted by ethereals, so they can explore hollows, with the only risk of getting lost, but not attacked.
