=== Background ===
In S.1198, Ries lost her older sister Rufina Argent when a jaeger corps attacked the Aster House orphanage ran by the Septian Church in Arteria that both sisters helped out in. The two of them first met with Kevin on a street corner. Because of Rufina's persistent action in reaching out to Kevin, he decided to live together with them. 
Both Rufina and Kevin decided to become knights of the Septian Church, leaving Ries as the last one at the orphanage of the trio. One day, the house was attacked by Jaegers and Ries was held hostage after being knocked unconscious. She woke up to the cleaning and repairs of the house as well as the news of her sister, Rufina, was dead. Kevin left Ries behind without telling her the truth of what had happened that day. Ries, determined to find Kevin and the truth, trained to become a squire of the church. Five years had passed after Rufina's death and Kevin's disappearance from her life. Ries was then to be appointed as Kevin's assistant squire, appointed to him by Ein Selnate.
During her time in Arteria, she met Elie MacDowell.
