Description
Scarlett Castiel, daughter of a duke executed on false charges of attempting to poison Crown Princess Cecilia Luze, carried the weight of her father Adolphus Castiel and King Ernest’s political conspiracy. Framed as a sacrifice to prevent war between Adelbide and Faris, her Farisian royal bloodline—marked by rare purple eyes—made her a pawn in schemes to install a Puppet King, drawing manipulation from the shadowy Daeg Gallus organization.

Bound as a ghost to the Grand Merillian, she intervened during Constance Grail’s public disgrace, possessing her to overturn the humiliation. In exchange for aid, Scarlett compelled Constance to help expose her framing, unraveling a web of political factions, hallucinogenic drugs like Jackal’s Paradise, and buried histories. Their alliance shifted from transactional bargaining to symbiotic growth: Scarlett tempered her harshness while mentoring Constance in resilience.

Alive, Scarlett wielded arrogance and intellect as armor, clashing with rivals like Cecilia, whom she once saved from abortion drugs, and childhood figures Prince Enrique and Lily Orlamunde. Tensions escalated after Enrique’s betrothal to Cecilia, while Lily’s suicide later intertwined with conspiracy fallout. Her volatile exterior hid protective instincts, evident in her bond with Constance and covert acts of compassion.

Gifted with a photographic memory, a keen sense of smell for detecting toxins, and noble-bred strategic prowess, Scarlett navigated her ghostly limitations—interacting physically only through possession or indirect influence. The investigation into her death exposed systemic exploitation of women in politics, mirroring Constance’s struggles, and revealed her father’s complicity.

In her final act, Scarlett abandoned vengeance to save Constance and Randolph from a collapsing statue, breaking cycles of sacrificial violence. Posthumously, her legacy endured through her half-brother Maximilian’s efforts to redeem her name and his daughter’s honorific “Leticia,” a testament to fractured yet enduring familial ties.
