Likes: Playing with lyre, Soope Dislikes: Trashy people A young woman who works as a ranger in a forest and an adventurer. She encounters Croix and his friends in a forest and starts to travel with them. She always takes Soope with her. He's been with her for as long as he can remember. She works as a professional lyre player, as well as a ranger. Her lyre is also a versatile weapon: it can become a sword and a bow in battle. Where she is from is unknown. Due to her darker skin, some believe she is a Teru, but she doesn't have a tail or horns, the symbolical physical features of the Teru, so it seems quite certain that she is a human.

Likes: Gergo, ugly-cute creatures, Kurukuru dumplings, Pippen, fruit waffles Dislikes: Grotesque things, horror movies, excessively sweet foods Singer: Akiko Shikata Said to be the "Most Valuable Life" in the world of Metalfalss. The stateswoman who represents the Grand Bell. She is also a Reyvateil. Behind the 33rd Holy Maiden, she is an extremely charismatic idol and superstar among all people who support the Grand Bell. She is especially popular of all the Holy Maidens in Metalfalss' history. Her speeches are very energetic, and she empowered the people with her eloquence in this stagnant phase in human history, so she has gained enormous popularity. However, because she was raised in the Palace and has hardly gone out, she's socially ignorant and a bit awkward around people. That is probably why she is usually pompous and sometimes even intimidating.

Because of her cute appearance and contrasting voice, most customers remember her name. In that sense, she is a celebrity, whether she likes it or not. She's normally a smiling, cheerful, and cute girl, just like Luca. You can see Luca's strong desires in the big gem that she always rides on.

Likes: Fencing, dignity and traditions of his royal family Dislikes: The current government The charismatic leader of the Sacred Army, and the Alfman Regime's rival force. He is actually the purest-blood heir of the Pope, who used to control the world before Alfman's coup. He is also Croix's childhood friend. Very prideful. He ruthlessly eliminates whoever defiles the Royal Family. His love for old traditions that his clan has long preserved is behind his angers and ruthlessness to traitors. His dream is to regain the throne and the Pope's Regime. For this purpose, he and Chester established the Sacred Army.

She gets along with him quite well (lovingly calling him him "Cro") though thay are not related by blood, she is actually a Reyvateil herself, but she has not yet matured and is unable to use Song Magic fully. However, she is able to craft a little fireball in combat, showing that she can at least command the most basic Song Magic that all Reyvateils can use. She fights using an special hair ornament, which can turn into a double-bladed baton. This weapon idea was originally created by Croix for her.
