She is extremely beautiful that when the Remdragon Knights visited Croyso castle Gabel was awestruck at her beauty. At the start of book 2, Riftan notes after seeing Rosetta again that she looked extremely noble and dignified.

## Personality

Well loved by her father, she is described as the perfect daughter and noblewoman. Unlike her sister, she doesn't have a stutter. Despite her beauty she has a cold aura surrounding her. Rosetta at a young age of 10 was shown the cruelty of her father through watching her sister getting punished made her into a cynical person. She also very smart and arrogant. One of the few people who can look into Riftan's eyes without flinching. She displays a cold attitude to everyone especially to Maximilian but actually cares for her sister in her own way.

## Plot

As of yet, she hasn't physically appeared in the story but is mentioned in inner dialogue by Maximilian when she thinks back on her time at Croyso castle. Her father, Duke Croyso, gave her everything that she could ever want as a child, dozens of servants, extravagant clothing, and love that Maximilian never got. She is well loved by not only her father, but the rest of nobility. Her father would often take her to gatherings and events to show her off. Princess Agnes mentions that Rosetta would come and visit Drachium Palace once every year.

Rosetta became the standard of beauty to Maxi making her feel inferior and comparing herself to her all most of the time fueling her self pity and lack of confidence in how she would look.

Rosetta would finally appear at the last part of book 1 at chapter 170 wherein she stares down at Maxi as she comes back to Croyso Castle. After the maids told her that Maximilian is weak to the point of dying she visits her sisters room. She enters without asking permission and would look at her sister coldly with irritated eyes. She exclaims that it makes her angry seeing her sister frail and starving herself. She would reprimand Maximilian for going into the battlefield, miscarry her child and would be wounded to the point of almost dying. She kept berating Maximilian for believing that Riftan will come to save her comparing him to their father. She exclaims that all men are just the same. She stops when Maximilian started pleading her to stop and leave. She got up and told Maximilian that when she left Croyso she wished that Maximilian would never return again.

Rosetta was the one that let Riftan in so he that can rescue Maximilian from their father. Before Riftan could take Maximilian away, Rosetta appeared in the doorway staring at her father's limp body asking if he's dead. Elliot who was checking the condition of the Duke told her to call a priest in which she never did. She instructed Riftan and the knights which way to leave the castle and reminded them that to keep it a secret that she took part in the rescue. She then walked calmly away not sparing a glance to her bleeding father.

During the time where Riftan declared war on Duke Croyso. Princess Agnes arrived at Anatol to convince Riftan retract the war declaration. Rosetta posed herself as a veiled attendant of the Princess only stepping in as the last resort. She fearlessly debated with Riftan head on despite the latter's murderous rage. Rosetta claims that war will only bring loses and that she would like to keep one or two people not get hurt. She then asked him to drop the war as exchange for her helping him rescue what's most important to him. After reminding Riftan about it he finally dropped the war against the Duke as he sees Maximilian waiting outside the meeting room.
