Marsha

Marsha is an inhabitant of the town of Grancel.

She's usually found walking the area around the department store in the eastern section of the royal city. Like many of her fellow citizens, Marsha adores ice cream from Sorbet's stand, is excited about the Martial Arts Competition and is puzzled about the rumors of the Royal Guard being in exile (Marsha's own hunch is that Dunan simply had them thrown out because they were more popular than he was).

She attends at least some of the tournament's matches and if Estelle and her party talk to her after the competition's finale, she recognizes them and congratulates them, stating that she's happy that they won and not the Intelligence Division's team. Like most of Grancel's population, Marsha gets worried when the Intelligence Division strengthens its hold on the city and replaces most of the troops inside with special ops, stating that the black-clad soldiers give her the creeps. After the coup is thwarted, Marsha has little sympathy for Colonel Richard, feeling that his goals didn't justify his awful means.

Marsha spends most of her days running errants and frequently passes by the southern entrance of the department store, where she has attracted the attention of Anton, one of the youths hanging out on the steps leading to the store. Unbeknownst to Anton, Marsha is perfectly aware that he's ogling her and it thoroughly creeps her out. Eventually, upon once more approaching the spot where her admirer is hanging out, Marsha pauses and wonders if she shouldn't just take another route. If the player talks to her, Marsha recognizes Estelle, Joshua and Zin as bracers and, reassured by their presence, walks along anyway. Anton later gathers his courage and approaches her to say hello, but Marsha, sick of his leering, shoots him down with a harsh rejection.
