When Vauthry seized power thirty years ago and declared Eulmore’s transformation into the city it is now, Aurora resigned with many likeminded comrades to continue the fight as vigilantes. Yet without official support, their ranks gradually dwindled due to battle, corruption, and old age. She took in and raised the orphaned child of a fallen comrade, living among the Derelicts beneath the opulent city she had once sworn to defend. |

Aurora was forced to end his life herself, but in the process became tainted by the same corruption. Determined to fight until her last breath, she traveled to the Crystarium and took on dangerous missions, attempting to die on the battlefield against sin-eaters like her comrades, instead of waiting for a slow death at the Inn. There, she was unexpectedly saved time and time again by another sellsword, Mulberry, whose admiration for her became affection. They grew close while Aurora's conditions continued to detroite. Eventually, sensing her corruption progress to an advanced stage, she ask Mulberry to end her life before the Light claimed her completely. | |
