Celia (セリア, Seria^?) is a female enemy in Deception IV: Blood Ties. A descendant of the Saints and has a piece of the Holy Verses.

History

Celia's Saintly ancestor once belonged on the side of the Devil before betraying him. Due to this, before he was sealed away, he stole half of the Saint's soul, using it to create his "daughter", Laegrinna.

Celia was born in a humble section of society to parents of a magical knight origin, a practice that she too learned at a young age.

When Freise used her powers to locate the other descendants and found Celia, she somehow knew that she was different. To prevent Celia from joining forces with the other half of her soul, Freise brainwashed her and had her become her servant.

Believe

If Laegrinna chooses to believe Celia, Caelea will tend to her wounds. Once the battle with Freise ends, Celia asks if they are going to resurrect the Devil. Instead, the Daemons convince the two halves to use alchemy to absorb the Devil's power. Celia and Laegrinna form a government that provides stability, and they receive support from the majority of citizens. With their new power, they create a new world, one not by corrupted humans or the Lord of Darkness.

Don't Believe

If Laegrinna chooses to dismiss Celia, the former puts an end to the latter's life. With her final breath, Celia laments about not being able to rejoin their souls.

Encounter

First Encounter

“Though a descendant of the Saints, Celia was born to parents that kept their distance from the world at large. Her family had been magical knights for generations, and Celia began her training for this vocation at an early age. The journey she is currently taking is all part of this training, and she will not hesitate to step in and help anyone who is in trouble.”
