Hey-hey! White Rabbit here! Lammy scanned this article and said it contains unmarked spoilers for all Trails games. Turn back now if you don't want to get lasered! Okay, byee!

Roselia Millstein (ローゼリア・ミルスティン), also known as Crimson Roselia (緋のローゼリア), is introduced as the elder of the Hexen Clan.

Profile[]

Appearance[]

Roselia appears as a young girl with blonde hair long enough to touch the floor, deep crimson eyes and an archaic way of speaking. Roselia wears a long sleeved white shirt with a red laced corset, long red skirt comprised of several layers and brown knee-high laced boots. At times, Roselia can shift into her true adult form, which grants her additional height, and her clothing adapts slightly, with detached sleeves.

She carries her personal staff with has a large crystal on the end, glowing red when in her possession. She can float upon this staff, in which case, it resembles a broomstick.

Personality[]

Roselia is secretive and cryptic by nature, and often withholds information. She has a slight mischievous streak and irresponsible nature, and can get into clashes of personality with other opinionated individuals, such as Wilhelm Ballad. Nevertheless, she has a long history of wise counsel while helping to guide others in the sense of her longstanding duty as Elder.

Background[]

The name 'Roselia' originally belonged to the Holy Beast that fused with the elder of the Kin of Fire (survived as the first Elder of the Hexen Clan) in order to handle the Great Collapse.[4] The current Roselia is the second iteration and second Elder; she was originally a familiar in a position similar to Celine's. After the first Roselia was betrayed by the Gnomes and as a result perished around S.306,[Note 2] Roselia followed her predecessor's instructions to visit the Luna Sanctuary to inherit her predecessor's memories and mission as the Holy Beast of Fire.[4] Now, she is the sworn to protect the Ark Rouge, titled Roselia, the Burning Sphinx (《翼ある灼獣》ローゼリア).

Roselia collaborated with Emperor Hector Reise Arnor I to defeat the Dark Dragon, Zoro-Agruga. Together with the head of the Gnomes, they sealed Hector's Divine Knight Testa-Rossa in the depths underneath Valflame Palace, at which point Roselia and her Hexen Clan lost all contact with the rival clan.

Awakener of the Silver Knight - Flashback (Sen III)

Roselia and Lianne Sandlot in front of Argreion.

The next record of Roselia's activities are dated S.942, when Roselia guided Lianne Sandlot through the trial to become the Awakener of Argreion, the Argent Knight, at Lohengrin Castle.[2][5] Ten years later, she guided Dreichels Reise Arnor through the trial to become the Awakener of Valimar, the Ashen Knight, near Trista.[6][7][Note 3] Lianne succumbed to mortal wounds during the conclusive battle with Orthros and his Vermillion Apocalypse. Roselia took Lianne's corpse[2] with her back to Eryn, leaving behind only rumors regarding the disappearance of Lianne's corpse. Half a year later, Lianne revives before Roselia's eyes and leaves Eryn to wander through the world.[2]

Roselia - Fine-tuning Sketches 4 (Sen III)

Concept art of Roselia as described in the Red Moon Rose novels.

Around S.1010,[Note 4] Roselia collaborated with the Septian Church to eradicate the rampaging vampires in Heimdallr. The last remaining True Ancestor of the race herself, Roselia defeated the Elder Vampires single-handedly and ended her own bloodline of vampirism. The novel Red Moon Rose is a heavily embellished recounting of these events, particularly regarding the extent of her affiliation with the Septian Church.

Roselia remained on good terms with Lianne Sandlot for centuries until S.1186, at which point the latter met the Grandmaster of Ouroboros. Afterward, Lianne cut ties with Roselia, and they would not meet again until twenty years later in S. 1206.[9]

Sometime around S.1203, Roselia encountered Ragnard, the Holy Beast sworn to protect the Aureole. Ragnard had since been dismissed of his contract, so the two likely had a candid conversation.

Trails of Cold Steel I and II[]

Young Vita and Emma - Flashback (Sen III)

Roselia in her more mature form behind Vita Clotilde and Emma Millstein.

The two other witches in the series, Vita Clotilde and Emma Millstein, were both trained by Roselia. Vita lost her parents at a young age. She displayed great affinity for magic and Roselia adopted her as one of her disciples. Vita's talents make her Roselia's greatest disciple to date. Emma lost her mother, Isola Millstein, in an unfortunate accident and was raised by Roselia in her stead.

Roselia also created their familiars: Grianos for Vita, and Celine for Emma. Creating them drained a considerable amount of her life force, so she appears to others as a seemingly young girl. In areas with high spiritual energy, Roselia is able to harness it to temporarily return to her adult form. Vita eventually joined Ouroboros following an unknown incident, while Roselia sent Emma to Thors Military Academy to test Rean Schwarzer, who would be Valimar's Awakener.

Trails of Cold Steel III[]

Roselia makes her debut, first appearing a mysterious young girl that only Rean Schwarzer can perceive, at least initially. She visits him on Bryonia Island and in the Sutherland region near the Isthmia Great Forest. Roselia also has an encounter with Arianrhod in the Languedoc Canyon. Her true identity is revealed in Heimdallr when Emma introduces her as her grandmother and the leader of the Hexen Clan. Roselia promptly explains the dangers of the Dark Dragon, Zoro-Agruga's reawakening, rushing into its lair after giving the party sealing tags that will suppress the possessed Calvardian unit. She helps subdue and seal away the dragon, protecting them from the miasma upon its defeat. Afterward, she withholds further information, teleporting away as Siegfried enters, stating she might have remained had "Black" come in person, but not for one of his agents.

With the turbulent times in Erebonia of S.1206, Roselia decided to make an appearance before the protagonists and team up once again with the Septian Church, this time with Second Dominion Thomas Lysander. As the elder of the Hexen Clan, Roselia is tasked with the safekeeping of the Ark Rouge, the Sept-Terrion of Fire. She accompanies the party to the manifested Gral of Erebos and uses her magic to send Class VII inside. She grants Emma her staff before the portal closes, which transitions from red to purple as it does so.

Trails of Cold Steel IV[]

When the Great Twilight began, Roselia assisted in the group's escape by teleporting both new and old Class VII to Eryn. Roselia trains the Class by granting them access to the Saint-Gral Labyrinth where she acts as the final trial. She helps them recuperate and assist Class VII new and old locate the Black Workshop through the planting of magical stakes at spiritual hotspots around the Empire. She then leads the Hexen Clan in performing the spell that transports them there. Roselia would continue to drop in and out of the village on her own missions.

It is during her absence that Gilbert Stein with the help of F. Novartis, who wants to test his new device, lays siege to the village. Roselia appears after Class VII oust him and Rose performs the final punishment before Campanella arrives to escort him away.

Roselia becomes a figure of key importance when she asks Class VII and Celine to come to the Lunar Sanctuary where they create the signs of conflict in order to activate the ancestral artifact of the Kin of Flames, the Spectral Moon Mirror, which reveals the history of the Empire. Vita, Aurelia, and Rose are the obstacles Class VII must face, with Roselia revealing her true form and duty as the Holy Beast of Fire. After learning the secrets of the empire, Rose thinks Lianne and Dreichels foolish for not involving her. She is particularity enraged when Rufus Albarea backstabs and slays Arianrhod, casting a high level fire art which does no damage to the impervious shield of El-Prado.

Roselia, with assistance from Emma and Vita, cast a barrier around Mishelam for the short break before the day of the Great War. During this overture, she enters her true form and takes part in a drinking contest, with Vita chaperoning her. Despite her power and age, she is swiftly outpaced and collapses from inebriation. Roselia joins one of the teams attacking the fake Salt Pales in Operation Shining Steel before helping to teleport everyone to the final battle against Ishmelga-Loge. Following the battle, Roselia, as the head of the Kin of Flames, orders the remaining Divine Knights to activate the Sacrament Program of Ark Rouge and restore Crow's and Millium's souls.

Hello there, beautiful. May I have a moment of your time?
Please be aware spoilers for Trails into Reverie may be present in the following section. Hit [Show] on the right if the show must go on. Adios, amigos!

After the Great War concluded, Roselia confirmed that the two Sept-Terrions and the Divine Knights had left Zemuria. Sometime around March S.1207, the spirit veins began to act up once more, causing spirit paths to reopen once more. Unsure as to what was causing the calamity, Roselia also made contact with Zeit, who similarly to Ragnard had been dismissed of his duties as a Holy Beast.

Roselia accompanies Vita, Celine, and Emma to investigate the appearance of Isola Millstein's last diary, and the appearance of the White Shrine. There, they discover her familiar and after passing a trail, receive a message recorded by Isola herself.

Rose comes to the aid of the Courageous II in the Nord Highlands when its engines are destroyed by the Great One. She uses her magic to help get the aircraft down to the ground safely. Afterwards, through her and Zeit's magic, they locate the source of the communications black out, and location of the Sonorous Seashell, helping Rean's party to teleport there.

Roselia takes part in the final battle, teleporting the party onboard the Arseille II and then bringing five of Erebonia's strongest warriors on board, enchanting their weaponry and deflecting the Retributive Tower's Keraunos. She then helps get the large assault party into the Retributive Tower, and later their Soldats.

A copy of Roselia and her true form are encountered in the True Reverie Corridor.

There we go, the end of spoilers. Thank you for your time!

Development[]

Roselia was revealed as someone who appears before Rean Schwarzer on numerous occasions, but his companions are unable to perceive her existence. She is not a normal human being, and her powers are unlike any that have appeared so far. Her relation with Azure Siegfried and Rutger Claussell is unknown, but what the three have in common is that they should not exist.[10]

Trivia[]
