Klymene
This nymph appeared to Xenobia, after the centauride returned to a grotto lying somewhere between Ormos and Eidylato find Candid gone. The nymph told her that she was the cave's mistress (though they had stayed in the grotto earlier, they saw no trace of her). She also related that Candid was taken by armed men, and cryptically suggested that Xenobia ought to follow them, because Candid would not return.
After Xenobia and Theresa returned to the grotto while fleeing from Sisyphus, they met the nymph again. At this time, she revealed her name, and said that she knew from allies that their companions, Candid and Ischyrós, along with Pyro, were hiding out in Eidyla. She tried to convince them to return to the city to join their allies in fighting the king, but Theresa said Candid had betrayed her, and chose to head north to seek Polydoros' aid instead.
