## Relationships

### Leoa

Leoa is a winged feline. She has two forms, a regular-sized cat, and a large lion. In her larger form, she can be ridden and will fly people she likes to their destination. Galen tried to use Leoa to bribe Amara once and failed. Later, they begged Amara to take Leoa, as she was a menace on their ship. Amara and Leoa have been together ever since.

### Galen

Galen and Amara have a friendly relationship. Amara often frequents Galen's secret ship dock, and through Galen Amara met Leoa. MC invites Galen to the council after becoming queen.

### Hazel

Hazel is Amara's favorite blacksmith. MC invites her to join the council after taking the throne.

### Thea

Magus Thea is the head priestess of the Summer Quarter. The Summer Temple is where Amara often trains and spars with others. She, like the other Magi, never leaves the temple, as it is where she draws her magic from and leaving would cut off her power. At the end of Amara's Season 1, Thea falsely accuses Xenia of conspiring against Altadellys and attacks her with a magic bolt that knocks her unconscious. She also claims her magic has revealed MC to be the descendant to the long lost princess and the true heir to the throne. She is later arrested by Nisse for her involvement in Amara's attempted assassination.

### Tristan

Prince Tristan of the Summer is revealed at the end of Amara's Season 1 to likely be the one who stalked and assaulted MC, and stole Xenia's enchanted life draining dagger, the only weapon that could potentially kill Amara. During the tournament, he wins many duels at the Summer Temple, surprising everyone who knows him. Hazel says he is not much of a fighter, only commissioning weapons to match his outfits. He was uninjured in the duels, but has a wounded leg and claw scratches, making him the most likely suspect to have kidnapped Leoa. Before he can face Amara in the tournament, MC and her allies apprehend him. Then Thea marks Xenia as the traitor and names MC the true heir. At the beginning of Season 2, the real Tristan is found tied up in his room, and the impostor has escaped imprisonment.

### Lady Vo

Piama's grandmother, Matriarch of the Spring, High Council Person Lady Vo, or Auntie Vo as she insists everyone calls her, is introduced in Season 2. She steps out of the chaotic aftermath of Thea's reveal and escorts MC to the throne's room's fruit tree. The tree's fruit is poisonous to anyone not of royal blood; eating it will prove MC's heritage. After MC is confirmed to be the Last Queens' descendant, Lady Vo and the Council decided that, as per tradition, MC will have a regent until she is married. Lady Vo is chosen as that regent, and says she will help MC learn how to govern. In reality she attempts to rule in MC's stead, manipulating events and ordering Piama to spy on MC. She thinks poorly of MC being a Wilder, and uses her wealth and status to undermine MC. She later tricks MC into signing magically disguised documents ordering soldiers, including Amara, to fight in the west. She also arranges, without MC's knowledge, a marriage between MC and a Rovdyr princess to end the growing tension with their neighboring nation. Upon returning form the Wilds with Amara and Nisse, MC arrests Vo for treason and banishes her from Altadellys.

### Ruelle

Princess Ruelle of Autumn is a guard serving under Amara. Amara is MC's guard during the day, and Ruelle guards MC at night. She is stoic, non-talkative, very stealthy, and seems to take her job rather seriously. She becomes a constant ally to MC.

### Pax

Pax guards the Last Queen's resting place. He comes from a family who has long served in this capacity, and also act as executioners should the need arise. He communicates by sign language with Amara. He seems to be able to hear, so is likely mute. He has a corvid friend with no name. As the bird does not belong to him, he does not feel the right to name it.

### Nisse

General Nisse leads the Wilder rebels. She is the first person MC meets with ears like hers, but Nisse says her homeland, Fortrylle, is full of people with pointed ears. Nisse has heard of Amara's legendary skills, and is eager to face her in combat. She is satisfied to lose a duel to Amara, content just to have had the opportunity to fight her. Amara and MC come up with a plan to end the rebellion, by offering Nisse a spot on the Council. Nisse's advice for MC clashes with Xenia's, and the two after an altercation, which Amara breaks up. Xenia advises making changes slowly so as to not invite too much dissent from angry nobles, while Nisse advises to ignore them and go ahead with any necessary changes. Nisse also encourages MC and Amara to be open about their relationship, to the point it makes both of them uncomfortable. While defending MC's right not to have to go through with an arranged marriage, she mentions to the council that MC's heart is already taken. This creates confusion among council members, and almost reveals MC's relationship. Nisse also takes matters into her own hands to investigate and arrest Thea. She drags Thea to the throne room, and MC has to ask her to please check in before doing something so drastic again.

## Trivia

He could not, however, do the same for the Queen. Amara is now immortal, both ageless and invulnerable. She is lauded as a heroine for helping the Queen Consort and Princess escape, but views herself as a failure for allowing the attack to happen and not being able to save the Queen. Season 1's tournament marks exactly 100 years since this attack.

* Leoa’s armor is custom made to match Amara’s.
* Amara likes the sun's warmth on her bare skin.

* Amara may have a a form of OCD, as she describes a routine she followed every night as a child to keep monsters away.

She still follows the routine as a source of comfort, no longer believing it will keep monsters away.
* Amara had lots of dogs on her family’s farm, but her favorite animal was the grumpy barn cat. She named her lioness in honor of her cat, but was happy Leoa turned out to be much sweeter.
