Malliesia is found in a village during Marth's expedition in Grust. Her grandmother claimed she was only ten years old to protect her from being taken by Lang and his men, but she actually has come of age. After finding out Marth wasn't one of Lang's men, her grandmother offers her to Marth as his bride, but Malliesia says it's far too early and that she doesn't know what to do. Malliesia continued to accompany Marth throughout the War of Heroes. She trained under Lena as a cleric prior to the war.
After Medeus's defeat, she gets upset that Tiki is getting all of Marth's attention, and claims that Caeda won't forgive her if she shows even the slightest happiness, which Caeda writes off as nonsense.
Malliesia is the only character in the game capable of wielding the Thief staff, and effectively fills Lena's place as wielder of the Hammerne in Book 2.

↑"Oh, Prince Marth. It's been a while. How is my granddaughter, Lena? What, she’s not here? Really...? Then, does that mean this Hammerne staff is useless? At least, Lena's pupil, Malliesia, should be able to use it... Well, please take it." — Lena's grandfather, Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem
