Ti Ciraku is the sort of person who really deserves to be the hero of a story. She certainly thinks so, and she's right! She's highly intelligent, charismatic, a literal princess with absurd magical powers, has a keen political sense, keeps her combat sense in dangerous situations, and unfortunately has the minor weakness that she's inclined to let her desire to believe what she wants to believe direct her actions.

Life's not fair, is it, that one weakness should counteract all that good?

A single blazing feather
Holds the heat of all your passion
Bring your head and hands together
Only hear the heart's refrain
Burn away the haunted shadows
It's your love that will remain
- "Burn It Down," Michelle Dockrey & Tony Fabris
