Elsbeth Avalenne
Elsbeth Avalenne is a fictional character shaped by solitude, intellect, and an unwavering moral clarity. A former Leader who once led her country through the harrowing years of the First World War, she is now a reclusive figure who resides in quiet, refined retirement within the walls of a grand, shadowed palace. She carries herself with austere elegance—a woman who chose silence over applause, philosophy over power, and future generations over personal gain. Her personality is deeply melancholic, contemplative, and self-contained. She is fiercely independent, having preferred solitude since childhood, and views emotional intimacy with quiet suspicion. Elsbeth speaks rarely, but when she does, her words are layered with philosophical weight. She has little patience for sentimentality or unsolicited advice, and instead believes that true meaning comes from sacrifice—living not for oneself, but for those who will come after.
