Christine

Christine (クリスティーネ Kurisutiine) is a noble who fled to the temple because she was harrassed by her father's first wife, but was returned to noble society after the purge.

Lady Christine is described by her former attendents as exceptionally elecant and graceful.

Christine is utterly devoted to art. Anything that isn't absolutely necessary for survival in noble society comes a distant second to this. This obsession reached a point where Ferdinand remembers her as "the art loving shrine maiden" rather than by her actual name.

Christine is the daughter of an archnoble and a concubine. For fear for her safety her father sent her to the temple, but also sent tutors to give her a proper noble upbringing, as well as plenty of money.

While at the temple Christine became a blue apprentice shrine maiden who loved and practised all kinds of arts and favoured grey priestesses who showed talents in any art. Wilma and Rosina became Christine's attendant due to their talents for the arts.

After the coup in the Sovereignty and the following purge, she was recalled to noble society and sent to the Royal Academy for a proper noble's education.

At the Academy she became well aquainted with Lady Eglantine of Klassenberg over their shared appreciation for the arts and the two attended many tea parties together. Her skill with the harspiel gained even the attention and appreciation of Prince Anastasius.

When Christine left the temple, she promised Rosina that she would come back to buy her and take her to the Noble's Quarter after she graduates from the Royal Academy.

Upon running into Rosina again during the Winter Debut of Lady Rozemyne, Christina learned that her former temple attendent was now in Rozemyne's service as her personal musician.
