Description
Georgine is the eldest child of the former sixth Aub Ehrenfest and his first wife, Veronica, making her an archduke candidate of Ehrenfest and the older sister of the current Aub, Sylvester. Due to her mother's lineage, she was married to the archduke of Ahrensbach, a higher-ranking duchy, and eventually rose to become his first wife. Physically, she has dark green eyes and blue hair with a purple tinge, similar to her brother, and is considered very beautiful with sharp, pointed facial features.
As a personality, Georgine is intelligent, diligent, and strong-willed, but she is also deeply resentful and holds grudges for extended periods. Her most defining trait is her profound hatred for her younger brother Sylvester, whom she believes stole the position of Aub Ehrenfest that was rightfully hers. This resentment stems from their childhood; while Georgine was subjected to brutal training by their mother Veronica to prepare her for leadership, Sylvester was spoiled and allowed to shirk his duties, with anyone who complained being scolded by Veronica. This favoritism destroyed any potential for sibling affection and left Georgine feeling that her birthright had been unjustly taken from her. She governs her actions with a cunning intellect, capable of developing sophisticated political schemes without leaving evidence that can be traced back to her. She is also a charismatic leader who has maintained the loyalty of many former members of the Veronica faction in Ehrenfest, who continue to see her as their true mistress.
Her primary motivation throughout the story is to claim the foundation of Ehrenfest and become its aub, a goal she believes is her destiny. This ambition is not born from a desire to serve the duchy but from a deep-seated need for validation and revenge, a twisted result of her abusive upbringing at the hands of her mother. Having risen to the position of first wife in Ahrensbach, she now holds a status above Sylvester and uses her position to orchestrate plans to destabilize his rule from afar.
In Part 3, Georgine’s role is that of a hidden antagonist pulling strings behind the scenes. She visits Ehrenfest ostensibly for a funeral, during which her nephew Wilfried ignorantly invites her to return, an invitation she exploits to plan future interference. Before leaving the duchy, she sends a letter to her loyal supporter Royella, cryptically stating that she has discovered the path to Ehrenfest’s foundation, which galvanizes her faction to begin plotting against Sylvester. Her overarching plan involves exploiting the political instability caused by the imprisonment of her mother, Veronica, to create an opening for her own return to power.
Key relationships heavily define her character. Her relationship with Sylvester is one of pure antagonism and contempt. She holds a similarly dismissive view of his children, including Wilfried, whom she sees as a useful pawn. While she is the mother of Detlinde, her relationship with her daughter is not one of affection but rather a tool for her political ambitions, mirroring the neglectful and instrumental parenting she herself received from Veronica. Her most significant bond is with her loyal retainers, such as Grausam and Royella, who are fanatically devoted to her cause and operate as her agents in Ehrenfest.
Georgine’s character development is portrayed largely through backstory, revealing how a once-diligent child was twisted into a ruthless schemer by her mother’s abuse and the injustice of being passed over for the throne in favor of an unworthy, favored son. Her notable abilities include immense political acumen, charismatic leadership, and powerful mana attuned to fire and earth. She is also a capable mage, able to don silver cloth to conceal herself and infiltrate secure locations. Her strategic mind allows her to identify and exploit the weaknesses of the Ehrenfest archducal family, making her a formidable and persistent threat.
