## Chronology

One day when Oscar was visiting Moorin's orphanage in the Kingdom of Velka's capital Velnika, where Corrin and the other children he grew up with were living, he detected an unfamiliar person inside. As Oscar saw that it was a beautiful girl named Miledi, he was about to attack her due to her childish antics, but Corrin and the other kids suddenly arrived to stop him and claimed that she was a guest. During dinner, the kids were bragging to Miledi about how great Oscar was, but it quickly changed when another of the orphans named Ruth claimed that Oscar was weak. Miledi refuted Ruth Orcus Verand's accusations by claiming that she could tell how great a person Oscar was, and that she had found someone very special to be with. Everyone else was shocked by Miledi's declaration, to which she responded by jokingly accusing Oscar of already having found himself two young wives in Corrin and Katy. Both girls were shocked by this sudden accusation. The conversation ended when Oscar threw Miledi out and told her to stay away.

One week later, Corrin and the other orphans were abducted by the Holy Church and taken to the kingdom's mines. Oscar managed to track them thanks to the special pendants he gave each of them that acted like homing signals. When he confronted Bishop Forneus Abyssion, who was the mastermind of the kidnappings, he saw that he was holding Corrin as a hostage. Oscar managed to free Corrin thanks to his arsenal of artifacts, and proceeded to attack the members of the church (all while holding Corrin in his arm). It was during the confrontation that Oscar was suddenly attacked by several of the abducted children, including Katy and Dylan. They had all been brainwashed through a mysterious Artifact and were now soulless warriors that were loyal to the church. Corrin begged the two of them stop, but to no avail. Oscar eventually surrendered after seeing that the two kids would strain themselves to death from all the fighting. Forneus made Oscar submit to him in exchange for Katy and Dylan's safety, to which Oscar reluctantly agreed to. Corrin sadly begged Oscar to not give up, to which he merely smiled at her and assured her that everything would be alright. As he was about the swear his oath of loyalty, however, they were suddenly approached by Miledi, who was carrying the Artifact the church was using on the children with her gravity magic and revealed that Forneus actually had no idea on how to reverse the process that transformed the children. Forneus attempted to have Oscar fight for him by threatening to have Katy and Dylan kill themselves, but the two kids were subdued by Miledi as she used her magic to knock them out.

After Oscar and Miledi defeated all of the church's forces, Corrin scolded Oscar for apparently having hurt Miledi's feelings by telling her to leave him just before he set out to rescue the kidnapped children and told him to apologize to her. Although Oscar did not regret telling Miledi to leave him at the time, he still thanked her for helping him rescue Corrin and the others. Soon after, they were attacked by a three-headed dragon that had guarded the church's Artifact, while also having to deal with the mine floor's ceiling caving in due to Bishop Forneus' last ditch attack before his death. Miledi used her magic to prevent the ceiling from collapsing and told Oscar to escape with Corrin and the other children. Oscar, however, decided to stay and help Miledi. He transmuted a makeshift gondola for Corrin and the others and had her look after them. Ultimately, Oscar and Miledi succeeded in both sopping he cave-in, and destroyed the dragon (and by extension the Artifact it guarded), but the end result left a massive chasm where the dragon once stood thanks to Miledi's magic having been amplified with Oscar's Divinity Stone.

Two days later, Corrin and her family were taken in by Miledi's group, the Liberators for their protection. Unfortunately, Katy and Dylan remained unconscious and could not be healed through normal means. They eventually reached the Liberators' hidden village at the bottom of Reisen Gorge. During the next few months, Corrin acted as a caretaker for her friends, as well as assisting wherever she could for for the Liberators.

When the Liberators were attacked by mutated Demons from the Igdol Empire, they were forced to evacuate. They were eventually met up with members from the Schnee Clan and found refuge with them in their hidden village in the Obsidian Tundra. Soon afterwards, they were met with Meiru Melusine, as she could use her own Ancient Magic to heal Katy and Dylan. While she had been successful at awakening them, the damage they received to their souls was beyond even her ability to restore. As such, the two of them were only capable of executing the simplest of movements, and could not communicate properly.

When the Liberators were being pursued by everyone in Tortus under the magical influence of Ehit, Corri and many of the residents of Sainttown attempted to flee to the Schnee Clan's village. As they were trekking across the Obsidian Tundra, they eventually came under attack by the forces of both the Grandort Empire and the Igdol Empire. Their attacks opened a massive fissure in the ground that caused many others to fall to their deaths; among those included Morrin. Ruth attempted to save her, but knowing that it was too late, simply told him and Corrin to look away before she fell. As the soldiers closed in on the rest of them, Dylan and Katy, who managed to regain their senses. The two of them werable to fend off their attackers using the skills they obtain through the church's experiments on them. In the end, the surviving Liberators managed to escape into the Pale Forest. Corrrin and the other children were soon reunited with Oscar after he arrived in the forest and tended to the survivors in the republic. Oscar was proud of them, but they all still mourned the loss of Moorin. Soon after, Oscar and the other ancient magic users attempted one final attack against Ehit, but had failed in their mission, and soon marked the end of the Liberators.

Seven years after the the Liberators were defeated, Corrin and the other former orphans, along with Sharm Barn, were present during Miledi's public execution in the Elbard Theocracy. As they made their way to the town square, Corrin broke up an argument between Katy and Ruth. As Miledi was brought out to be executed, Ruth and the others were shook up from the jeers the crowd was giving her. Soon after the execution was finished, Corin and the others said their goodbyes, and she and Sharm travelled together. Eventually, the two o hem got married and had a daughter named Belle S. B. Heiligh.

Sharm immediately fell in love with Corrin during their first encounter, and did everything he can to win her over. Corrin was troubled by Sharm's attention towards her, due to never having been in this type of situation before, and was unsure how to respond. The two of them would eventually get married and have a family.

## Trivia

* Corrin's name may be based on "*Corinne*", which in turn is the English and French variant of "*Corinna*". It is derived from the Greek word "*kórē ‎(κόρη)*", meaning "*girl, young woman, maiden, bride, young wife*". In Greek mythology, this is the epithet of Persephone, who was kidnapped from her mother, Demeter, by Hades to become his wife.
* In the "*Arifureta Zero*" short story "***How Status Plates Were Made***", when Oscar was first testing out his Status Plate artifact, Corrin was shown to have the job **"Saint"** (聖（せい）母（ぼ）, *Seibo*?). It is unknown if this is a actual job, however thousands of years later, Myu had been designated by Uruluk as the "**Saint**" of her generation.
