Loro

Loro's mother was once a Radiant at SEED who died fighting Nightmares when Loro was a kid. The despair of losing her mother turned the girl's world gray. Even those who were the closest to her couldn't bring her back to her feet.

When Loro grew up, she jumped into battles against Nightmares to unleash her torments upon them. Loro built a gigantic bulwark in her heart, preventing anyone from coming close to her.

Until one day, Kiraya broke the ice by jumping in front of her...

"Are you buying car wax for your father? I wish I'd have such a good daughter."

"I don't have father," says Loro to the garage owner.

"Errr... I see," says the owner, scratching his head. "Sorry about that. Please, take that bottle of wax as a token of my apology."

"Really? Thank you!" Loro takes over the wax then goes home happily.

After a while, Kiraya is back. "Yo, Loro, are you maintaining your shield again?"

Loro might be shy and introverted, but she's more resolved than anyone if she makes up her mind.

Loro admires Kiraya's strength that allows her to carry a great sword on her shoulder. She believes that a colossal weapon will give her more courage.

So Loro trains herself by running and rope skipping, hoping she can grow taller. However, so far, she's still shorter than her shield, Theodosius.

"You still have time, Loro. One day, you will be strong enough to face anyone." Kiraya would always say that to comfort the lovely little girl.f

Constantine XI never achieved many honorable deeds as a Radiant nor as an emperor.

However, before the end of his life, he finally showed his resolve as an emperor.

A formidable number of Nightmares were drawn by the blood spilled in the war and surrounded Constantinople alongside the enemy. It was an impossible battle, but Constantine XI didn't waver. He fought until his last moment until the reinforcements of Radiants arrived.

The lens of Constantine XI was thus imbued with his unwavering resolution.

Loro was very young when she became a Radiant.

Once when she was playing with her friends, they ran into a gravely injured Radiant who was chased by a Nightmare Lord.

Though the kids' parents were all Radiants, everyone was scared by the bloody scene and fled, except for Loro, who ignored that Radiant's warning and stayed. Eventually, the Nightmare Lord pulled both Loro and the Radiant into the dream.

At the most critical moment, the dying Radiant decided to end his own life, hoping that the brave girl could inherit his lens. And she did.
