Azura

Azura is a main playable character and the deuteragonist in Fire Emblem Fates. She is a princess of Valla and Nohr who was captured and imprisoned in Hoshido.

Profile: Azura is the daughter of Arete who became the step-daughter to King Garon of Nohr when Arete became the second Queen of Nohr shortly after the death of Katerina. Like her mother, Azura is a gifted singer who carries a special pendant that once belonged to her mother. It is imbued with a mysterious power that she can evoke whenever singing Lost in Thoughts All Alone.

Azura was born in Valla as the daughter of its queen, Arete, and her husband, the king. When her father was killed by Anankos and Valla fell at a later date, Arete and Azura, along with Mikoto and her child, Corrin, fled from Valla to the world outside the Bottomless Canyon. Azura and Arete ended up in Nohr, where Azura eventually joined the Nohrian royal family as a princess when her mother became Nohr's and King Garon's second queen consort a while after Leo was born.

Azura grew up under the veil of the hostile Nohrian royal court. Already feeling isolated from her new step-family, Arete died under mysterious circumstances, leaving her feeling truly alone. Shortly after King Garon ambushed King Sumeragi of Hoshido in order to capture Corrin, Hoshido responded by hiring Shura to kidnap Azura in hopes of setting up an exchange. Uninterested in his step-daughter nor relinquishing Corrin, Azura remained in Hoshido. At Queen Mikoto's request, Azura was treated as an official princess of Hoshido. While many had reservations due to her Nohrian ties, her new family and the populace grew to accept her and thus Azura did not desire to return home to Nohr.

[Prologue] Corrin first meets Azura when they stumble upon her singing by a lake. There, Azura explains that she was a princess of Nohr that was kidnapped by Hoshido, in a similar situation to that of Corrin's, and that she was always happy in Hoshido despite technically being a hostage. She also mentions that she would prefer to stay in Hoshido if she had the choice to return to Nohr, as Mikoto is a peaceful ruler while Garon is not. Several days later, Azura joins Hinoka, Takumi, and Sakura in giving Corrin a tour of Shirasagi on Mikoto's request.

During the following celebration of Corrin's return at the capital square, Corrin's Ganglari is detonated by a hooded man and kills most of the people attending, including Mikoto. Azura (along with Ryoma and Sakura) bears witness to Corrin's transformation into a mindless dragon. She then warns Corrin to avoid the Wyrmslayer-wielding mercenaries and assists them in defeating the Hooded Man. After the battle, Azura uses her powers to revert Corrin back into a human, even though she is nearly killed by the feral Corrin in the process. Corrin is confused about their dragon form, thus Azura gives them a Dragonstone, telling them that it will allow them to turn into a dragon again but will also keep their mind intact. She advises them to keep it with them at all costs, or the next time they turn into a dragon again without it, she may be unable to save them. She also mentions that she feels close to and safe with Corrin despite their short time together. Azura joins the Hoshido Siblings and Corrin to the Plains of Hoshido, where the Hoshidan and Nohrian armies meet. Depending on Corrin's choice, Azura's involvement with the story of Fates changes.

[Birthright] Corrin decides to side with the Hoshido siblings and Azura assists them throughout their journey.

In Chapter 7, Azura leads Corrin to Fort Jinya, where she states that Sakura arrived ahead of them and is tending to a large number of wounded Hoshidan soldiers and citizens. Suddenly, the fort is attacked by Nohrians led by Silas, prompting her to join Corrin in warding off the invaders. After the battle, news revealing that Takumi and Ryoma have gone missing reach Fort Jinya, motivating Azura and Corrin to embark on a mission to locate them.

In Chapter 8, Azura and their allies cross though the Eternal Stairway to get through the Wind Tribe. Suddenly, Faceless ambush the Hoshidans. Kaze and Corrin kill the Faceless, only for the magic to drop and reveal them as Wind Tribe members. Iago teleports in, mocks the Hoshidans, knowing he can plot against them with Corrin on the Hoshido side and then teleports out to prevent the Wind Tribe from finding out that it was a ruse. After Iago disappears, the group discusses how their route takes them through Wind Tribe territory and they'll likely have a hard time explaining these events; during the discussion, Azura states Iago did them a favor by revealing himself as their enemy, as they must go through him to get to Garon.

In Chapter 9, Azura and Corrin's group are invited into the palace of Izumo by Izana. When Izana, revealed to be Zola in disguise, lures Corrin and Sakura into a trap, Hinoka, along with Kaze and Azura, manage to save them after she comes to the realization that Izana's eccentric mannerisms are antithetical to his royal status. However, her theory is proven wrong when they meet the real Izana, who acts in exactly the way Zola has portrayed him.

During Chapter 10, Azura can be brought onto the battlefield against the Mokushu forces. When Takumi arrives and attempts to kill Corrin, having her talk to him will allow her to banish the presence controlling him, and results in Takumi joining Corrin's army. If Azura is not brought into battle and Takumi is defeated, she still sings to him, breaking control after the battle regardless.

On the way to search for Ryoma, during Chapter 12, Azura offers to help Kaden repay a local songstress named Layla, who wants to visit her dying grandmother but is unable to because she has to perform for Garon. Zola disguises Azura as Layla with his magic, and she dances in Layla's place, using her water manipulation skills to discomfit Garon from the stage. However, during the performance Zola betrays the group, the spell drops, Garon executes Zola and Corrin's forces are forced to escape from the opera house. Outside, Azura collapses from exhaustion. Alarmed, Corrin tries to find out what is wrong, but Azura tells them not to worry about her.

In Chapter 14, Azura and the royals siblings happily reunite with Ryoma. Scarlet, the resistance's leader, learns only now that her allies are the Hoshidan royals, as Ryoma had joined her under cover to judge the group. Scarlet assures that many in the resistance have ties with Hoshido, herself being the granddaughter of one of king Sumeragi's servants. The conversation is interrupted by a crash, and outside the resistance is overwhelmed by Nohr troops even though the place was supposed to be secret. Azura suggests there is still a traitor among them, which surprises Corrin, stating that what happened with Zola had ended, but Azura is doubtful and asks how else could this have happened, leaving Corrin in shock. Ryoma orders a retreat along a secret path leading straight to Nohr territory.

After the Nohrians have been routed, Corrin sights Azura singing her song while walking around a lake and decides to watch her from a distance, in case she faints like in Nestra. When they approaches, Azura seems distant and refuses to talk about the song and its powers. She then briefly collapses in pain again, with purple marks crawling on her. She is forced to reveal to Corrin that the blood they share, combined with her medallion, let her infuse magical effects into the song, at the price of her own suffering. Even then, she assures Corrin she is ready to sing and suffer to defeat Garon and bring peace to the world and urges them to not hesitate to have her use the song. Corrin reluctantly accepts.

During Chapter 18, Leo ambushes Corrin's army as they attempt to pass through the Woods of the Forlorn. Before appearing before Corrin's army, he summons a horde of Faceless to greet them, and Leo promptly initiates his attack. After defeating Leo, Corrin seizes upon the opportunity to urge him to join their cause, only for him to decline due to refusing to take up arms against his family, including Garon. Azura steps forward at this point and entrusts a crystal ball into his possession, gently asking that he rethinks his decision after looking into its depths. Recognizing her as a former princess of Nohr, he asks if they bear any blood relations, only for her to avoid his questions and again urge him to find the answers he seeks in the crystal ball. Leo thereafter warns Corrin of the fact that Xander has become very strong, suggesting that they seek out the Rainbow Sage in Notre Sagesse to gain the power needed to fend against him. He then gives them a warp tome to transport them directly to Notre Sagesse before parting ways with them.

During Chapter 20, Iago traps the Hoshidan forces inside Fort Dragonfall by reanimating the dragon, rendering the army's weapons incapable of penetrating the walls of the fort. Azura tells Corrin that with her powers, she can weaken them. Corrin refuses to let her because of the consequences that come with it, but allows her to after she convinces them. After the battle, the Hoshidans escape the fortress and Azura sneaks away to hide the consequences of using her power. Corrin notices that it is getting worse, and she admits that the more powerful the target, the more energy she uses, and that using it too long would kill her. Corrin asks her not to use it too long again, fearing for her life. Azura complies but tells them that she will need to use it on Garon to end the war.

When the Hoshidans arrive at Windmire in Chapter 22, Shura and his gang attack them after Corrin refuses to relinquish Noble Yato. After defeating Shura, Azura asks to speak with him, deducing that he may know about the secret passageway to Castle Krakenburg. Azura reveals that, back when she was stolen away from Nohr, her captors did so from a secret tunnel leading from the castle, made long ago for the purpose of infiltrating the castle unseen and that Garon and the Nohrian royals know nothing about it; she deduce that, if the tunnel is still there, it would benefit the group greatly, then asks Shura if he knows about the tunnel, to which he agrees to after learning that Ryoma is the high prince. It is revealed that Shura was the one who kidnapped Azura, although she is unaware this. He is surprised to see how strong she has become after all those years.

In Chapter 25, Azura and the Hoshidan army arrive at a staircase landing leading to the throne room, where Iago ambushes them once more. He taunts Corrin for still being alive, but they are sick of Iago's games and tells him to just get it over with. He seizes full control over Takumi's mind, compelling him to take Azura as a hostage. Iago thereafter reveals Takumi to be the "traitor", as thanks to him, he knew of their whereabouts, gleefully forcing the Hoshidan royalty to decide whether or not to kill him or watch Azura die. However, thanks to Corrin's attempt to reach out to Takumi, he regains temporary control of his senses, allowing Azura to sing Lost in Thoughts All Alone to purify his mind and free him from Iago's curse. Iago tries to stop her, but Sakura manages to halt him long enough for Azura to finish her song. Takumi breaks free and shoots Iago, foiling his plans yet again. Iago fails to kill Corrin and is then killed by Leo for attempting to beg for his life, ending his deceitful and cowardly schemes and Leo allows the group to pass without further interference.

Xander, the last person guarding Garon, challenges Corrin to a duel in Chapter 26, both Azura and Ryoma are forced to watch the fight unfold without being able to interfere, but Elise sacrifices herself in order to stop Xander from killing Corrin. However, Xander still forces them to fight him. Before they can continue, Xander's retainers, Laslow and Peri, interrupts the duel and upon seeing Elise's corpse, they immediately attribute her death to Corrin and promptly summon Nohrian troops against Xander's orders to attack the Hoshidan army, forcing them to fight back, while Corrin fights Xander alone. After Xander is defeated, Azura watches as he tells Corrin to stop Garon as it will be the only way to bring true peace to the world and succumbs to his wounds. Although saddened by Xander's death, Corrin proceeds with confidence and leaves to the throne room to finally put an end to Garon once and for all.

In Chapter 27, Corrin reaches the throne room of Castle Krakenburg, and finally confronts Garon himself. Corrin attacks him. However, Noble Yato is unable to penetrate his armor, and in retaliation, Garon launches several blows at them. Azura attempts to use her powers to weaken him, but Garon anticipates this and grabs her, threatening to kill her unless they listen to his demands. Ryoma negotiates with him, and he responds that it is a wise choice. Garon demands that Hoshido unconditionally surrender so its lands can be incorporated into Nohr, then states that he wishes to kill Ryoma. Garon sends a fireball at Ryoma, wounding him.

Ryoma's Raijinto suddenly reacts to Noble Yato, empowering it into Blazing Yato. Corrin decides to test the new Yato on Garon, and he screams in pain, stating that it actually hurt. He threatens them with death and calls for his soldiers to kill Corrin and the Hoshidans, but they fail and the Hoshidans fight and defeat him.

Garon refuses to give up and transforms into his dragon form. Azura tells Corrin that she will sing Lost in Thoughts All Alone to weaken him. Knowing that it may kill her, Corrin tells her not to over do it. After a harsh battle, Garon is defeated for good. Azura collapses and dissolves into water as the result of overusing her necklace's power, with Corrin bursting into tears. In the ending, they converse with Azura's spirit by the lakeside where they first met her before Azura disappears and Ryoma calls them back.

[Conquest] Corrin decides to return to their adoptive siblings from Nohr and Azura fights them alongside the Hoshidan Siblings. After the end of the battle at the Plains of Hoshido, Azura returns to Hoshido.

The Hoshidan people become suspicious of Azura because of her Nohrian origins. Though Ryoma does his best to quell any doubts of Azura's sincerity, Azura is captured by a faction of Hoshidans. She is later reunited with Corrin at Fort Dragonfall in Chapter 9, when their party coincidentally travels through the fort on their way to Notre Sagesse. Grateful for being rescued, she joins their party.

When Corrin's party reaches Cyrkensia in Chapter 14, she sings and dances before Garon and Nohrian troops, wearing a different dress and a facial veil to disguise herself. Unlike in Birthright, this dance causes visible pain to Garon. After the dance, Iago notices Garon is in pain and orders his men to capture the songstress, who he believes inflicted a curse on him during the dance, but fail after she escapes. After Kumagera appears and attempts to end Garon's life to end the war, Azura surprises Corrin, who did not see her leave her seat during the performance and like the other Nohrian troops, are unaware that she was the mysterious songstress.

Afterwards, she travels to Valla, unknowingly followed by Corrin. After rescuing Gunter and returning to the Bottomless Canyon, she reveals to Corrin that she was the mysterious songstress. However, the song she performed was not a curse, but a purification ritual meant to drive out the evil force controlling Garon. She reveals that it is too late to save him, and the man known as Garon is no more. She explains to Corrin that they must kill Garon to bring peace and the only way to defeat the evil presence is to get Garon to sit on the Hoshidan throne, meaning they would have to gain Garon's trust, win the war in Nohr's name and conquer Hoshido and force him to sit on the throne, which will expose his true form so they can kill him to truly end the war.

Later, when Corrin is reunited with Xander, they introduce him to his long-lost sister, Azura. Although Azura initially unsure of how Xander will react to her, Xander explains that he was aware of the hardships she faced as a child in Nohr as the people were upset at Garon marrying her mother after his own mother's death and that he, Camilla, and later Leo were discouraged from interacting with her. He then assures her that he is happy to see her again and is glad that all his siblings are reunited and that they can be a family again.

Azura follows Corrin throughout the invasion of Hoshido, conquering Fort Jinya, Great Wall of Suzanoh and Castle Shirasagi. Finally, the party reaches the throne room entrance, where they confront Ryoma, the last defense of Hoshido. Ryoma challenges Corrin to a duel to the death. Corrin emerges victorious, and Garon orders them to kill Ryoma or be considered a traitor and put to death. Upon learning that Hinoka's death was faked and that Corrin is the same person he knew, Ryoma entrusts the future of the world to Corrin and commits seppuku.

After conquering Hoshido and with no other defense left, King Garon arrives at the Shirasagi Throne Room, completing his goal. Demanding that they do not enter the throne room without his permission, he goes inside alone to bask in his glory and consult Anankos. Corrin and the others wait outside. Iago, along with Hans and Garon's loyalist, attempts to kill Corrin after discovering that they spared Hinoka, but Azura and the Nohrian siblings turn against him and calls them out for disgracing Nohr and their shameless crimes and without Garon to protect them anymore, they fight against Garon's loyalist. They manage to kill Hans and all of Garon's loyalist, leaving only Iago, who attempts to escape his punishment by begging for his life, but Leo silences him and calls him out for his cowardly crimes and mercilessly executes him, putting an end to his schemes against Corrin once and for all.

Azura tells Corrin it's time to reveal the truth and Corrin reveals to the Norhian royal siblings that the war is not over yet and that they must kill Garon to end it, and reveals to them that Garon is no longer human as he has been replaced by a monster and that there's no way to save him, thus killing him is the only option. Corrin prepares to enter the throne room with Azura and their siblings to expose Garon's true form and kill him, but the siblings remain skeptical of how Corrin and Azura even know about Garon's state and why they didn't tell them sooner. Azura cannot tell them because of the curse and says that the only way to reveal the truth is to show them the throne so they can expose Garon's form. This causes more skepticism and Corrin begs and forces their siblings to know the truth about Garon, Xander reluctantly agrees to this, but warns them that if they are lying, they will be executed for treason.

Corrin agrees to this and they all enter the Throne Room. True to their words, a water monster appears before them in a grotesque visage of Garon after sitting on the throne, exposing his true form. Azura reveals to the siblings the real king Garon, a monster. Garon is angered at their "betrayal" and attempts to kill everyone. Dishearten by this, Elise, Camilla and Leo refuse to fight their father, but Xander stops Garon from killing Corrin and states that he is no longer his father and will fight alongside Corrin to kill Garon and encourages his siblings to help Corrin put an end to Garon. Believing in Corrin, the Nohrian siblings turn against Garon and declare his reign is over, and they finally kill Garon for good.

As they celebrate their victory, they are cut short when a possessed Takumi attacks the group, demanding vengeance for the suffering of the Hoshidans and the death of his brother. Corrin is shocked both at Takumi's survival and his possession by an unseen force. They try to tell Takumi that Garon is dead and the war is over, only for him to repeat the words "betrayal" and "death". Azura tells Corrin that Takumi cannot be reasoned with and they must kill him as he is possessed just like Garon was and that he is beyond saving. Corrin volunteers to accept responsibility for their actions and allow Takumi to shoot them. Corrin falls into a near-death state, however, is revived and the combined force faces the possessed Takumi.

Before the battle begins, Azura apologizes for not helping Takumi sooner and overuses the necklace's power against the possessed Takumi, despite knowing full well it would kill her. However, none of the Nohrian siblings and Corrin knew of this, or know what happened to her after the battle. After defeating the force inside of Takumi, Azura vanishes after the battle, most likely dissolving into water. Unlike in Birthright, Azura's death is not shown in this version, but is confirmed missing by the siblings. Corrin later encounters her at a lake like when they first met, before she dissolves into the light after telling them to close their eyes. Azura thanks them for everything, and states they will meet again.

[Revelation] After Corrin refuses to join a side, a war breaks out between the two nations. Needing a way to catch the attention of Xander and Ryoma, Azura, Corrin, and their retainer Felicia or Jakob fend off the front commanders of both armies. While successful, both Xander and Ryoma take this action as a betrayal by the two. Branded as traitors by both armies, Azura and Corrin are forced to flee the battlefield.

Labeled as traitors and needing a safe place to escape, Azura takes Corrin and Felicia/Jakob to the Bottomless Canyon. Asking Corrin to trust her, they leap off the bridge into the chasm and an unknown land. Azura then takes Corrin into a cave and explains that they are in the kingdom of Valla, led by King Anankos, who has been orchestrating the war between Hoshido and Nohr. Azura reveals that she is a Vallite princess and is the daughter of the previous king. Additionally, she reveals that she could not tell anyone in the world above of her origins as doing so causes a curse to activate, dissolving the body of anyone who speaks about Valla outside of the realm. Their discussion ends shortly when a Vallite army comes to attack the party. After dispatching most of them, Azura and Corrin flee from Valla and decide that the best course of action is to have both the armies of Hoshido and Nohr join forces to take down the real threat to their countries.

Azura explains that her father and Arete's first husband was the former King of the mysterious realm of Valla, who was murdered by the mad dragon. Arete and a young Azura fled Valla for Nohr, becoming a part of the royal family until Arete's death and Azura's kidnapping.

After a long grueling campaign, Azura and Corrin are successful in recruiting both the Hoshidan and Nohrian armies. As Azura and Corrin lead the combined forces into Valla, a series of tragedies occur, including Azura encountering her mother, Arete, now under Anankos' control as a leader of his forces. Azura resolves herself to be the one to finish her and after several battles, Azura defeats Arete. As Anankos' influence leaves her, Arete expresses pride in the strong individual her daughter has become and fades away, leaving Azura to grieve for her mother once again.

Azura and Corrin continue to lead the combined forces into the Vallite Castle where it is revealed that a member of their forces is a traitor. Just outside the throne room doors, a mysterious spell hits the army save for Azura and Corrin, leading to the others believing that the two had lead them into a trap. However, Gunter slips in his story and reveals that he was the mole all along. Azura and Corrin defeat the Anankos possessed Gunther and Anankos' control over him is expunged. With no one left to fight in his stead, Anankos appears, devours Garon to reclaim his remaining powers, and proceeds to fight Azura, Corrin, and their forces.

Thanks in part to Corrin harnessing the power of Omega Yato, Anankos is slain and peace is restored to all three kingdoms. Azura crowns Corrin as the new ruler of a newly created Valla after the original Valla is sealed up after Anankos' death, serving as their personal advisor. If Azura has obtained an S-Support with male Corrin, she will instead become the new queen of Valla. If she marries Ryoma or Xander, she will become the Queen of Hoshido and Nohr respectively.

[Epilogue] Regardless of the route chosen in the end, Azura's entire existence is a huge mystery by future scholars and historians. If she is married however, her existence is proven thanks to the records of her marriage to her husband as well as the records of her son, Shigure.

[Paralogue] In Paralogue 3, on the ship, Azura is enjoying a view in the middle of the sea. Suddenly, Jakob/Felicia informs her that a young man on a Pegasus has just crashed their ship. Knowing who he is, Azura goes to see her son Shigure, as he escaped from his Deeprealm to find her as he is being chased by Vallites. Azura is surprised to see him here, but he tells her that strange warriors are pursuing him from his Deeprealm. Azura is surprised that they are also targeting him, while Shigure is unaware about his mother's powers and the past. Two large ships broadside theirs in the process. Shigure asks Azura if he may fight so that he may avenge his friends, but Azura refuses to let him and asks him to hide somewhere, much to his disappointment.

After the battle, Azura tells Shigure that she went to his Deeprealm to find the village destroyed and its inhabitants killed. Shigure sings Lost in Thoughts All Alone as a requiem for his fallen friends. He then asks Azura what he should do now, as he now has nobody left except her, to which Azura states she has no choice but to find another place to hide him. Shigure states he doesn't want to hide anymore and tells Azura that he's joining her cause, to which she tells him that he must stay safe; Shigure states that his friends lost their lives trying to save him and he needs to learn to protect himself—he needs to get strong enough so he can make the same sacrifice for others. Azura tells Shigure that he needs to let her protect him when she can, and he cannot deny her that; Shigure states that his heart is singing a song of hope for the future, to which Azura asks that they make it a duet, to which Shigure agrees.

Personality: Serene, calm, and collected, Azura's stoic demeanor serves as a fortress to protect her from others. Ryoma describes her as distant and wishes that she would open up a little more. She has difficulty trusting other people as a result of the hostile Nohrian royal court and the mysterious circumstances behind her departure from her true home. On the surface, she can appear reserved if not aloof as she dislikes speaking more than she has to, though this is partially out of provocation or rejection from others. She can be rather harsh when pushing people away, sometimes hurting their feelings such as with Elise, albeit unintentionally so, but she desires to bond with others in hopes of finding peace.

Said traits were even worse in her youth, as seen with her young variant in Heroes, who believes it is inevitable for her to be mistreated whenever she meets someone, even if said person is amicable, and actively rejects any sort of comfort despite wishing deeply for it as well as wanting to have a sense of belonging. She is well aware of these things, as she does not want this happening to her children, if she is married, and wants them to stay the way they are, rather than have them grow up like her. When she does open up, she proves to have quite the mischievous side, as seen when she teases Sakura by scaring her with ghost stories.

Azura's most meaningful bond is with Corrin as they are the literal counterparts to each other in terms of their circumstances. She feels immensely guilty that all the love she received from the Hoshido royal family should have rightfully belonged to Corrin. She even tells Ryoma and Hinoka that they no longer need to love her now that their true sibling has returned to them. Both assure her that Corrin's return does not affect the familial bond they share. While still guilt ridden, she becomes far less harsh on herself after these conversations. Likewise, if given the opportunity to bond with he Nohrian siblings, Azura discovers that her real adoptive family had loved her and worried endlessly about her. In turn, Azura feels welcomed and wonders if her life would have truly been bad in Nohr had she not been kidnapped. Overall, Azura is much more world-weary and cynical compared to Corrin, yet she shares their vision of a peaceful world and unity between its nations.

Azura is kindhearted at her core and is surprisingly wise beyond what one could expect of her. Bearing the knowledge and secrecy regarding Valla, dragons and degeneration, and her own unique abilities fills her with immense responsibilities that she takes seriously. She feels the need to bear her unique ability and its effects alone, refusing to surrender it to Shigure despite teaching him how to do so. She outright never tells Corrin what happens whenever she uses the ability in Birthright, leaving her fate unknown to them in that route. In Conquest, even after Corrin sees the effect on her, Azura remains resolved to use it in order to end the war even when it sacrifices her life. Nonetheless, Azura is comforted with Lost in Thoughts All Alone, singing it to herself when needing to comfort herself as she says it reminds her of her mother in her support with Jakob.

Normally neat and tidy, she has the worst cases of bed hair in the army and is a restless sleeper. To add some light, she also has a weakness for cute things and enjoys telling scary stories, while in her Support with Xander, it's revealed that she's a bit of a glutton.

Appearance Description: A graceful and ethereal young woman with an elegant, almost otherworldly beauty, carrying herself with serene confidence and gentle poise. Her figure is slender and refined, with soft curves and a delicate frame that gives her the appearance of a mythical spirit wandering between water and sky. Every movement she makes feels fluid and effortless, as though she glides rather than walks.

Her skin is fair and luminous, possessing a smooth, porcelain-like quality that enhances her celestial appearance. Her face is soft and feminine, defined by gentle features and a calm, knowing expression that radiates quiet wisdom and compassion.

Her eyes are a striking pale gold, carrying a tranquil yet observant gaze. They possess a subtle warmth beneath their composure, suggesting kindness tempered by intelligence and inner strength. Her expression often settles into a faint, serene smile that feels both inviting and mysterious.

Her hair is one of her most defining features—an extraordinarily long cascade of pale aqua-blue that flows well past her legs in thick, silky waves. The color shifts subtly between icy blue and soft turquoise depending on the light, giving it the appearance of shimmering water. Several long sections drift freely around her body like ribbons in a current, enhancing her elegant silhouette. Decorative golden clasps bind portions of her hair near the ends, adding structure to the otherwise flowing style.

Resting atop her head is a delicate white veil-like ornament trimmed with gold and adorned with circular blue gemstones. Feather-like white accents frame the sides of her head, reinforcing her angelic and aquatic aesthetic. Matching ornaments decorate her ears and shoulders, tying her appearance together with refined symmetry.

Her outfit blends ceremonial elegance with divine fantasy. She wears a flowing white dress with soft blue gradients along the inner layers and hems, creating the impression of water pooling and cascading around her form. The fabric drapes gracefully, with layered panels and long trailing sections that sway gently with movement.

The upper portion of her attire features intricate blue ribbons wrapped diagonally across her torso and waist, creating elegant intersecting patterns that emphasize her slim figure while adding visual softness. Gold-trimmed floral emblems rest along her shoulders, waist, and chest, serving as ornate decorative anchors for the flowing ribbons.

The dress exposes portions of her midriff and upper legs in a tasteful, stylized manner, balancing elegance with fantasy-inspired design. Long white sleeves extend seamlessly into fitted gloves, giving her appearance a regal, ceremonial quality. Around one thigh rests a delicate gold ornament resembling intertwined vines or waves.

Her overall palette consists of white, pale aqua, sky blue, and gold, creating a harmonious blend of purity, water, and divinity. Altogether, she gives the impression of a sacred lake spirit or heavenly songstress—gentle, radiant, and deeply graceful, with a presence that feels calm enough to quiet even the harshest storm.

Medieval/Ancient Japanese Fantasy Setting. Nohr is Medieval. Hoshido is Ancient Japanese.

Thousands of years ago, a great war between the First Dragons took place, causing great destruction. One dragon decided to involved humans in the conflict, forging four legendary weapons and an additional fifth weapon for them that ended the war, but introduced conflict to humanity.

In the present, two nations were founded from two other dragons that rebelled against their kin. To the west is the Dark Kingdom of Nohr, a harsh realm of darkness and brimstone founded from the Dusk Dragon. It is currently led by King Garon with his eldest son Xander as Crown Prince. To the east is the Light Kingdom of Hoshido, a prosperous realm of light and nature founded from the Dawn Dragon. It is currently lead by Queen Mikoto with her stepson Ryoma as Crown Prince.

Unbeknownst to most in recent times, a third Kingdom, Valla, was formed but also lost to history and kept in literal unspeakable secrecy. Its founding dragon is Anankos, the Silent Dragon, had it hidden away at the bottom of the Bottomless Canyon.
