Personality

• Parthevia’s Elite: She is introduced as a prodigy among the Knights of the Sacred Palace, serving under Emperor Parthevia. She is cold, efficient, and utterly devoted to her duty and the empire’s laws.
• First Encounter with Sinbad: She initially views Sinbad as a reckless, disruptive foreigner. Their first major interaction is antagonistic—she is ordered to capture or eliminate him. However, she respects strength and is intrigued by his unwavering will.
• The Dungeon "Baal": Kyouka accompanies Sinbad and his party into Dungeon Baal. Unlike others who are motivated by greed or power, her goal is to retrieve a national treasure. Inside, she demonstrates incredible combat prowess, but her rigid worldview begins to crack as she witnesses Sinbad’s ability to inspire others and think beyond the empire’s dogma.
• Turning Point: After the fall of the Parthevia Empire (due to internal corruption and external pressure), Kyouka loses her purpose. She is adrift, bound by her old oaths to a kingdom that no longer exists. Sinbad offers her a new place: Sindria.
• Renaming: In a symbolic act, Sinbad gives her the name Kyouka (meaning "Cherry Blossom" or "Mirror Flower," depending on interpretation), representing a new beginning. She accepts and becomes one of his Eight Generals.
