+==== Behavior ====
 Due to his difficult upbringing, Alex is often labelled as a young, inexperienced man. He has several issues with expressing his disagreement with others, and often finds himself falling quiet in heated arguments because of his fear of confrontation. He also has a hard time with obtaining friends due to his awkward social behaviour when he is meeting new people.
 Underneath this, however, lies a caring youth who is simply trying to change and reinvent himself to avoid becoming something he hates. Though the process is taking time, he is slowly but surely making progress and beginning to develop into the person he wishes to be.

-*'''Isabelle Darlon:'''&nbsp;As of late, Alexis has come to realise that her mother is a rather sinister and corrupt woman. She strongly suspects Isabelle's involvement in Keilan's death and loathes her mother for agreeing with Leonan's idea of arranging a marriage between Alexis and a fellow noble family's son without her own input. Alexis has escaped her family manor to make a new life for herself, but the image of her mother and her betrayal always lingers in the back of her mind.

She convinced Keilan to teach her how to wield and use a sword during the night, always training away from her family manor. After meeting every night for two weeks, the two began to develop feelings for each other. Each night he taught her again and again, until one night they finally ended up going the entire way with their romance. Shortly after their night of passion, Alexis' mother hinted that she was aware of her relationship with Keilan. During a trip to the coliseum, Alexis watched as Keilan faced another guard from their household in a spar. Towards the end of the fight, it is claimed that Keilan lost his balance and slipped at a disastrous moment, causing his opponent's sword to pierce his neck. The young man died within minutes, while Alexis screamed in horror from the stands. Onlookers say that despite her daughter's immense grief, Isabelle Darlon wore a smile during the whole event.
