Despite the swirling jealousy and schemes inherent to the palace environment, she consistently maintains an uncalculated, naive demeanor. Her child-like innocence and pure-hearted personality captivate those around her in a completely different way than the protagonist, Reirin, ultimately earning her the deep affection and protective instincts of everyone she meets.
