## Personality
Around people she trusts, Lateresa is genuinely cheerful, warm, and bubbly—her authentic self when the weight of command is set aside. For centuries across both the erased Pre-Rewind era and the early Present timeline, however, that warmth was buried beneath the rigid public armor of the Valkyrie of Light. As an overarching symbol of divine perfection, her public demeanor projected a detached, serene calm, offering reassuring smiles that rarely reached her eyes. She accepted deep personal isolation as the inescapable price of duty, functioning as an unapproachable monument mortals prayed to rather than a companion invited to sit by the fire.
