Cartesia

*"I am all the despair of this world-humanity's child, and its mother. Those who are aware of my existence refer to me as Cartesia".*

**Cartesia** is the final boss of Stella Glow.

## Appearance

Cartesia's appears similar to both Eve and Marie albeit a bit older; her upper body is that of a human female with white skin, teal-green hair that extends beyond the length of her body, large breasts that are covered with a black mass, and her hands are bound behind her head by a giant crystal. Her lower body is monstrous; giant egg-shaped heads seemingly made out of the chaos that fills the spirit world, with sorrowful faces carved into them, giant arms on each side of her, and a mass of black tendrils that extend from her hair and surround her body.

## Personality

Cartesia speaks in a soft-spoken voice that sounds calming and soothing even when she says things that are disturbing. From listening to the suffering of all of humanity as well as being the physical representation of it herself, she believes that death is true freedom for humans and pities those who think otherwise.
