**Cecilia** is one of Grey’s best friends. She is called **the Legacy** by the Trydens. Cecilia possesses an enormous Ki pool, but unfortunately has terrible control over her Ki, which once lead her to being rescued by Grey and Nico, when her powers ran out of control at Headmaster Wilbeck's orphanage, ultimately causing the trio to become friends.

Cecilia initially had a crush on Grey during her childhood, which caused Grey to distance himself from her as he was aware that his best friend, Nico Sever, liked her. She eventually fell in love with Nico, to the point, that they got later engaged. During her fight with Grey in the King's Tournament, she shows how well her control over Ki has improved during the last year as she completely overwhelmed Grey during the entire fight until she chose to purposefully die in order to save Nico from his torturers.

She later reincarnates into Tessia Eralith’s body, working alongside Elijah Knight/Nico Sever under Agrona Vritra, who plans to use her as a tool in order to destroy Kezess Indrath and the other opposing Asuran factions in Epheotus.

## Appearance

During her first appearance, Grey described Cecilia as a girl about his and Nico’s age, with shoulder length, dusty brown hair and a creamy complexion, while wearing a luxurious and expensive red dress.

In one of Arthur’s dreams about his former life, Cecilia was described as someone, who possesses clear blue eyes.

As a 17-year-old teenager, Grey described Cecilia as someone, who possessed a very feminine and shapely figure. Moreover, he also added that she now possesses an aristocratic and heavy aura. As a military school student, like Grey, she wore a special version of the academy uniform with embellishments, buttons, straps and other jewels and goldwork that set her apart from the rest of the students.

In one of his dreams, Grey says that Cecilia looks like a goddess from a painting.

In another instance, Cecilia describes herself as short, chubby and with short gray hair that looked like it had been cut with a knife. Moreover, she also describes herself as pitiful.

Later on in the series, she was reincarnated into Tessia's body. Her appearance is the same as 18-year-old Tessia, the body she was reincarnated into, with the exception of a series of runes (That glow faintly with warm light) marking her body. According to Cecilia, Tessia's arms are more slender than before Cecilia reincarnated into her body.

## Personality

As a child, Cecilia initially had a cold personality, until she met Nico and Grey, who were tasked by Headmaster Wilbeck to befriend her. Later, she she smiled and laughed more around the two of them, showing that she had opened up to them. The three become good friends, while later on Nico and Cecilia eventually even fall in love with each other.

## Background

Cecilia was brought in to Headmaster Wilbeck's orphanage, where she met Nico and Grey. After Nico and Grey saved her, when her powers went haywire, she quickly became friends with the two of them. Cecilia was an anomaly in Grey's world, possessing a monstrously large Ki pool and later gaining incredible skill at wielding it, putting her and Nico in danger with the government, who wished to manipulate her powers for their own gains.

## Relationships

**Grey:** He was Cecilia's best friend and first person she had a one sided crush on as a child. Grey did not reciprocate her feelings however, and she eventually moves on from her childhood crush. Grey was Cecilia's savior as a child, which she would always be grateful for. They have always been good friends, until Cecilia' used Grey to kill herself in order to protect Nico. This causes a divide between the three of them, and wrecks their friendship. Ultimately, Nico starts hating Grey, Grey moves on and becomes King, while only Cecilia knew the truth of her death.

**Nico****:** Nico is Cecilia's lover. Nico and Cecilia fall in love, and eventually they even get engaged. Nico has always been by Cecilia's side and supported her. Although their relationship seemed one sided at one point (according to Grey), Cecilia does love Nico. After she gets reincarnated to Tessia's body, Agronamanipulated her memories, which caused her to remember only a censored version of her past life. In fact, certain parts are omitted, which ultimately led her to hide the true reason from Nico as to why she had to die, and how Grey was not at fault.

**Tessia:** Cecilia is reincarnated in Tessia's body, but they did not interact until Cecilia enters the Integrate stage. When she interacted with the elf princess for the first time, she asks Tessia where they are and what is happening. The elf princess answered by telling her that they are in her mind and that Tessia's soul and the Elderwood Guardian are partially released from their constrains after she entered the integrate stage. Moreover, Tessia’s also told her that the beastwill is tearing their body apart to Cecilia's despair. Following that, Cecilia asks Tessia how to stop it, to which Tessia responds that Cecilia cannot do anything to stop it as the beastwill is not some mana to control, but a different kind of power, that needs time, training and luck to control, but their body does not have that time. Tessia's words anger Cecilia, but Tessia regards her with pitying amusement much to Cecilia's fury. Cecilia says that Tessia will die too if their body gets destroyed, to which Tessia responds that she does not want to die, but is willing to die in order to drag her down as they are enemies. This causes Cecilia to beg Tessia for her life as she tells her that her life was stolen from her and that she just wants her life back. She also tries to persuade Tessia by telling her that she will ask Agrona to give Tessia her body back, when Cecilia and Nico return to their world. Cecilia's words cause Tessia to laugh in a mixture of pity and amusement as she mocks Cecilia for the fact that she does not even see the irony in her words. Cecilia says that Tessia does not understand anything about her, but Tessia responds with sadness that she knows everything about her as they have the same body and mind. Furthermore, Tessia points out that Cecilia is a child compared to Arthur, who had lived two lifes, while Cecilia died too early in her first life. In fact, Cecilia’s childishness is one of the reasons why she knows, but does not see Agrona's brainwashing. Out of options, Cecilia tries to kill Tessia, but realises that her magic is gone in this state, which causes Cecilia to feel dread, despair and fear at the same time as she experiences her worst nightmare. What’s more, the Elderwood Guardian also makes his move and almost kills Cecilia, but Tessia stops him at the last moment as she decided to wait for the right moment to strike against Agrona in order to regain control of her body and keep her promise with Arthur.
