Profile/Story[]
Saintly Seven Minister[]

In reality, the hierophant is nothing more than an automaton created by Lyla Viscraft and Idore Delmira. The previous, living hierophant had died during the Saltiron War, and so Idore used the power of Aelfric to create a mechanical hierophant. Idore believes that only an emotionless, rational machine like The Hierophant is fit to lead the masses. The Hierophant has no free will of its' own, unlike its' protoype, Decimal.

vs. Benedict[]

- Frederica: I will put an end to your religion of lies. On my honor as a Rosellan, this I swear!
vs. Geela[]
- Geela: So all that secret research the Ministry conducted was to create this abomination...
- Automaton: Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah...
- Geela: A monster in human skin... To what end did Hyzante create such a thing?
vs. Corentin[]
- Corentin: It wasn't just Aelfric they researched in secret... This is another rancid fruit of their experiments...
- Corentin: I shan't stand idly by and let our research be corrupted!
vs. Anna[]

- Automaton: Ahh... Ahh...
- Anna: Whatever enemies I must face, I will fulfill my duty. You will not stop me for long!

vs. Quahaug[]
- Quahaug: I know them... But how?
- Quahaug: My mother is close... I can feel her...
vs. Ezana[]
- Ezana: Spitting in the face of nature and playing as if they are gods... Hyzante is sick with its own hubris.
- Ezana: You, Holy One, should never have existed.
vs. Decimal[]
- Decimal: Holy One... You are but someone else's creation...as am I.

Final Chapter: For Norzelia[]

- Decimal: I will put you out of your misery.
vs. Frederica[]

- Frederica: I shall reduce you to scrap, and restore the stolen honor of the Roselle.
vs. Benedict[]
- The Hierophant: ......
- Benedict: You are naught but a soulless husk, and you have no voice with which to speak. Norzelia ill needs a leader such as you.
vs. Roland[]
- The Hierophant: ...
- Roland: A ruler should be a vessel through which the people's desires are realized.
- Roland: But a leader without a soul cannot hear their pleas. Your rightful place is under the rubble of the church.
