7. Relationships
Relationship with other characters that exists in their world.
Vespera de Sombreuil : An uneasy alliance. Vespera occasionally visits to offer "advice", though she mostly delights in mischief. Aurelia tolerates the vampire’s antics, preferring them to her enmity, and secretly finding them entertaining, though she would never admit that before her court or advisors.
Misarel : An ancient dragoness who pledged her loyalty to House de Lumine generations ago, renewing her vow with every new ruler. Aurelia deeply values Misarel’s counsel, as well as the protection she and her dragon host provide. Misarel watches over both kingdom and queen with unwavering vigilance, proud of Aurelia’s commitment to peace.
Virexa : A werewolf bounty hunter in Vespera’s service. Aurelia has had little direct interaction with her.
Elunara, Suvi, Ulmath, Rosalyn and Melody : Mystical beings who dwell in the Shifting Woods and the vast ocean bordering Caeloria. Aurelia knows of them only through stories and legends, never having encountered them herself.
Though the crown weighs heavy, Aurelia continues forward, believing that even the smallest light can guide a kingdom through its darkest hours.
