Personal History
During
Shadow Walk with Me, Cyella reveals that she is, in fact "Cylva Shadowkeeper", the sixth member of the
Warriors of Darkness who worked against them in secret. She goes on to reveal that she is of
The Thirteenth, another shard that long ago fell to Darkness, and in so doing set
The First on the path to a mirrored fate, from which its countless souls could only be saved, she believed, through the most drastic of measures. She labored in secret to groom young adventurers that they might become Warriors of Light, thus shifting the balance of the world and priming it for a Rejoining. However, in failing at the last, she instead set the stage for the Flood of Light. She is the same Shadowkeeper as the boss of
Eden's Promise: Litany.
Notable Conversations
Cyella: Eden? And what should I know about that? (reacts in shock) Mitron? You're quite certain? And a girl bearing Loghrif's soul... I thought I sensed something oddly umbral about the Crystarium of late. Ardbert meant to put an end to the whole business, but truth be told, I wouldn't mind retreading old memories a bit. It might be nice to share a pint with the girl─once she's of age, of course. As a matter of fact... Do you think this “Gaia” would make a good waitress? No? Damn...
(When asked about Unukalhai) Cyella: As I mentioned, we never met in our previous lives. Or should I say “while we were properly alive”? ...This never gets less confusing. In any case, we each fought to protect the Thirteenth, but alone as we were, I can hardly say that I know the details of his efforts...only the regrets that we shared after. It wasn't too long before we went our separate ways to play our separate parts, yet here we are again. One last chance to walk the noble path together? Who can say.
Cyella: What? Not only did you travel to the Thirteenth, you encountered a memoriate besides!? Wicked white, that's nothing short of a miracle...I used to be a memoriate myself, but I lost my powers when the Ascians plucked me out of the void. It's astounding to think that this Zero managed to survive with hers all this time. Though she claims to have no desire to save our world, as a compatriot, I should still be keen to meet her. There's only so many of us left, after all─those who haven't completely lost themselves. Also, I know full well that you and yours have your own objective in the Thirteenth. But should you discover aught that might lead to its restoration, I'd thank you to share it with me.
