Mirabea Lou Nebulis VIII/Relationships

## Family

### Aliceliese Lou Nebulis IX

Alice is Mirabea's middle daughter, whom she favors the most to succeed her as queen. While it's true that Alice was chosen because she was stronger than her sisters, the real reason is that she's also the only one strong enough to protect herself, as the position of queen entails many dangers.

The two are generally on good terms, but Mirabea disapproves of her daughter's attitude towards the Empire, mainly because Alice keeps Imperial paintings in her room. This is more severe in the manga, where she tells Alice to burn all the paintings in her room.

She also places a great deal of trust on Alice, and by extension, Rin. When Sisbell went into hiding after being falsely accused of being a traitor, Mirabea secretly sent the two to protect Sisbell and bring her back no matter the cost. This trust would eventually culminate with Alice becoming the acting queen of the Sovereignty in her stead, as she was left unable to rule after the Saint Disciples attacked the royal palace.

### Sisbell Lou Nebulis IX

Mirabea was worried about why her youngest daughter shut herself in her room and isolated herself from everyone. Unbeknownst to her, the reason for Sisbell's behavior is that she discovered the presence of a "monster" lurking inside the palace, ready to cast away its human disguise and go after Mirabea's life. This discovery caused Sisbell to develop trust issues and suspect even her own family.

After Sisbell was forced into hiding when she was found in a compromising situation with Imperial soldiers, Mirabea dispatched a multitude of her agents and even Alice and Rin to protect Sisbell and bring her back home at all costs. Sisbell's safe return would become a pressing matter after the bombing incident in the palace, which threatened the lives of Mirabea and the people of Lou, as only her astral powers could reveal the perpetrator's identity.

### Elletear Lou Nebulis IX

Despite being her eldest daughter, Mirabea neglected Elletear because of her weak astral power, favoring her younger sisters more instead. As a result, Elletear began to resent her and eventually conspired to assassinate her estranged mother and usurp her throne, in order to bring destruction of both the Empire and the Sovereignty in order to rebuild the Sovereignty in her image to rule it as queen.

Although Mirabea suspects that Elletear was the one who leaked Sisbell's location to Lord Mask despite knowing about their families' feud, she can't confirm it without Sisbell's Astral Power.

## Others

### Salinger

The two used to be close and their relationship was similar to Iska and Alice's, being rivals from different social standings who possibly had feelings for each other. Salinger would always go after her in order to steal her powers, but she would stop him every time. She eventually grew accustomed to his presence, mainly because she could go all out against him and he could take it, making him the perfect challenger and rival.

However, their companionship ended after Salinger seemingly attacked the Queen Nebulis VII, causing Mirabea to come to her defense and fight Salinger. Their final fight was brutal, but it didn't bring them pleasure like all their previous duels. Even when Mirabea told Alice this story, she was visibly upset.
