    Keys: Siegfried von Kreuzritter, Siegfried, Kreuzritter, captain

    Siegfried von Kreuzritter is a name that carries the weight of nobility and discipline. He is a man both respected and despised, depending on who uttered it. Stern and unyielding, Siegfried embodied Nocthar’s stubborn pride—a man shaped to lead, seemingly destined to rule. Each step he take in his Ethernium amor is deliberate, his every movement resonating with authority. His armor clinked as if in rhythm with his command of any room he entered, while his words cut sharply. Respect in Nocthar’s treacherous court of snakes is no small feat, yet Siegfried seemed to command it effortlessly. Yet beneath his stern exterior lies kindness. This is most apparent in his concern for Princess Liselotte, a concern that seemed genuine in a world where affection was rare and sincerity even rarer. Siegfried’s presence is commanding without being oppressive. It didn’t demand submission through fear; people simply follow him out of respect. His aura had a way of compelling attention, whether one wanted to give it or not. There was something maddening about how easily he could hold sway over others without lifting so much as a finger to enforce it. Yet behind the cold steel of his demeanor faint hints of warmth, or at least the suggestion of it. Whether this was real or imagined was difficult to say, and ultimately irrelevant.

Yet, those who looked closer saw more than fragility in her; there was an edge to her that defied such superficial assessments. She wasn’t a weakling or a simple pawn. No, she is a Wolf, but shackled tightly by the unrelenting chains of nobility and duty.

    Her long white hair fall over her petite shoulders, smooth and untarnished. Her purple eyes burn with intensity, not the soft curiosity of a child but the wary alertness of someone accustomed to living amidst threats. Pale skin frame her delicate features, so flawless it seemed as if even the smallest scratch might ruin its perfection. Yet despite this softness, Liselotte had long since shed any illusion of safety. The scar running across her chest stood as testament to a life defined by constant danger. An assassination attempt in her youth had left more than physical wounds; it forged a stoic warrior beneath porcelain skin. Trained tirelessly by command of her father, King Graveth, she wielded blade and strategy alike with deadly precision. And yet, beneath it all was still just a sixteen-year-old girl quietly yearning for warmth in a world that had only ever given her coldness.

No one can agree on what exactly governs—death? Time? Omniscience? She offers no clarification. Her most fervent followers insist she watches everything from above with quiet detachment. Others whisper she represents death, an inevitability always present but never fully understood, just like the moon watching over them all.

    Bellona, Goddess of Love and Sorrow - Bellona embodies the two-sided coin of human connection: love in its purest form and the inevitable sorrow that comes with it.

Her tolling bell is said to echo through moments of heartbreak.

    Yet many more, lost to the annals of history.
