Aristella

**Aristella** is one of the twin familiars of Archdemon Shere Khan alongside her twin Dexia.

## Appearance & Personality

Aristella usually wears a frilled gothic dress. She also parts her hair in a side ponytail with a blue ribbon. Zagan would go on to realize that Dexia and Aristella have identical features to Lisette.

Being the less serious of the duo, Aristella is more prone to letting her mind wander than her twin and is usually seen drifting off. Aristella loves her twin dearly; so dearly she admitted she couldn't live without her and offered her life willing when Azazel arrived to possess them.

## Background

Five years before the start of the story, Dexia and Aristella were charged by their Master Shere Khan to aid in his Rare-Species Hunt; gathering rare specimens for his studies. Later, they were charged with destroying the black ops division of the Chivalric Order, Azazel, and succeeding in wiping out the Organization. However, they failed to kill the final and ace member, Kuroka Adelhide, but Dexia and Aristella succeeded in blinding Kuroka.

## Plot

### Holy City Raziel arc

With Shere Khan's alliance with Bifrons, Dexia and Aristella began working with them to infiltrate the Holy City Raziel, headquarters of the Chivalric Order, to steam the Staff of Azazel. In their mission, Aristella ran into Head Archangel Ginias Galahad II and Artisan Oberon and engaged them in battle; being unable to beat them, Dexia teleported them away

With the help of Valjakka, Shere Khan's spy in the Archangels, the twin were able to infiltrate the Chivalric Order's treasury in search of the staff where they ran into Ginias and Oberon again. Knowing they couldn't win, Dexia teleported Ginias away but met her match in Oberon who overpowered her and Aristella, causing them to flee.

Continuing their mission, the Twins ran into "Valefor", who was really Raphael Hyurandell in disguise, and Aristella suggested an alliance with "Valefor". The trio made their way to the heart of the Treasury where they thought they found the Staff, and all the Archangels, Oberon, Zagan, and Nephelia. Seeing they were outmatched, the Twins stayed on the sidelines as Zagan battled the Jūtilainen siblings and Bifrons. They later escaped with Bifrons back to their base with what they thought was the Staff of Azazel, but was really just a mythril stick much to their embarrassment.

### Grand Bath arc

About a month later, Bifrons sent Dexia and Aristella into Kianoides on a mission, but failed to describe their mission to them; just giving them some money. Wandering aimlessly, Aristella convinced Dexia to spend their allowance on a giant ice-cream sundae. During an altercation, the Twins ran into Nephteros who warned them not to cause trouble due to Andrealphus being in town. Realizing the potential danger, Dexia suggested a tactical withdrawal.

Retreating, the Twins ran into Kuroka, Ainselph Thalasa Neptuna, Lilithiera Fauna Hypneol, and Shax who were gathering supplies for Zagan's grand bath. Startled by Kuroka and the appearance of Shax (their old associate), the Twins started a fight but were swiftly defeated by Kuroka. Panicking, the Twins froze up at the possibility of death which caused Kuroka to take pity on them and order them to leave. During their retreat though, the Seraph Azazel attacked them nearly killing Dexia, horrfied, Aristella offered her life for Dexia and teleported her twin to safety.

Possessed, "Aristella" tracked down Zagan and proceeded to battle him and Barbatos outside Zagan's castle; after a *grueling* battle and the interferance of Alshiera, "Aristella" was killed before Dexia's eyes and abandoned by Azazel. With the arrival of Bifrons however, Aristella had her heart linked to her twin in an attempt to revive her and the trio retreated.
