Silque

Profile: Silque is a wandering cleric in Mila's service. When Silque was young, she and her mother, a priestess of the Duma Faithful, went on a pilgrimage in Rigel. She was an only child and never met her father. Suddenly, one day, her mother left her in a priory in Zofia before vanishing without a trace. She was raised as an orphan at the priory. It was Mila's temple that sheltered and saved her; thereafter, she made it her lifelong goal to share Mila's teachings with those suffering from loneliness.

Before the start of Shadows of Valentia, Silque leaves Novis Island to deliver Mila's Turnwheel to Alm. However, she is attacked by brigands twice on the way to Ram Village; Jesse saves her the first time, but she falls unconscious during the second and is kidnapped by the thieves. When Alm hears of this, he immediately rushes to the Thieves' Hideout to rescue her. After defeating the bandits, she wakes up and tells the party who she is.

If Alm rescues her, she hands him Mila's Turnwheel and explains how it works to him. However, if Alm skips the Thieves' Hideout completely and never interacts with her, he instead receives it from a merchant at the beginning of Act 3, who informs Alm that he received it from Silque.

If Silque is not recruited into Alm's party, Celica can visit her in the same location in Act 2, revealing that the two know each other. However, Silque will not join Celica's party in spite of that. After the war, she heads to Rigel to heal the wounded.

Personality: Silque is an easygoing lady who loves chatting and gossiping. She seeks Faye's company to talk about girly things because they are among the few women in the army. Despite Faye's initial resistance to being her friend, Silque is always amiable towards her.

Her faith is what guides all her actions. When she was abandoned by her parents, she found solace in Mila, so she decided to become a cleric, aiding other people in need. Silque never resented her mother and is grateful that she taught her survival skills during their pilgrimage together. Her deprived upbringing with her mother and later in the priory made her develop a taste for rough food considered untasteful by everyone else, like flour, hard bread, and raw carrots.
