Story
Aurora was a youth during the events of the Calamity. Her mother traveled to Thanalan with a small retinue on business for the Holy See of Ishgard. There she shared a tryst with Aurora's father, a leader of the civil resistance in Ul'dah and an ostensible heir to the lost Thorne dynasty. Their union was cut short when the monetarists sent assassins to prevent an uprising. After his death at the hands of the Syndicate, Aurora was transported to Ishgard for safekeeping.
Employed as a botanist, she aided her mother tending to the gardens of lordlings. One such lord noticed her latent potential in a jousting tournament, securing her squireship with House Haillenarte. As she was too young to be knighted and Ishgard was in danger of being overrun, Aurora was sent to Gridania as an envoy. She delivered the news to Kan-E-Senna that the Holy See would not be joining forces with the Eorzean Alliance. In the wake of Bahamut and the Battle of Carteneau, she resolved that the Dragons were not only Ishgard's problem but one Eorzea must face together. She remained in The Black Shroud following the aftermath to assist the Order of the Twin Adder with reparations.
