The Everlight

To you, my most favored.

The Everlight has favored the Invictus family since her first love--Lucia Invictus, who united the country under the guidance of a Saintess. Her first love ended with heartache, one so profound that her soul ascended and she became known as a Goddess. The Goddess of Love, Light, and Protection.

Her love for the family has not waned, not since she can see her beloved Lucia in each one of them. However, the youngest princess of Remelyar has caught her attention, and the Everlight's love has been reborn anew.
