In Grann 761, Aida led the Velthomer army at Velthomer Castle itself in the defense of Grannvale, in preparation for the "traitorous" [[Sigurd]]'s return to the country, stationing [[Meteor]]-wielding mages atop cliffs around the Velthomer and western [[Yied Desert]] area. Deployed with her was Duke [[Reptor]] of [[Friege]] and his army, who was suspicious of Arvis's intent but complied nonetheless. As soon as Sigurd's army approached Velthomer, Aida issued the command for all Velthomer forces to turn on Reptor and attack his army, in accordance with Arvis's plan; between Aida's mages and Sigurd's army, Reptor's group was overwhelmed and defeated. Once Reptor was defeated, Aida directed Sigurd to [[Belhalla]] to receive a ceremonial welcome from Arvis and the Rot Ritter, an event which turned into the [[Battle of Belhalla]].

Do you remember how my daughter Aida died protecting you from Manfroy?
— Cohen, to Saias

Aida (Japanese: アイーダ Aida) was an esteemed general of the Velthomer army, leader of the Rot Ritter, and a confidante to Duke Arvis. She was the daughter of Cohen, another Velthomer general, and with Arvis was the mother of the renowned tactician Saias.

Biography

Around Grann 747-749[1], Aida was involved in a relationship with Arvis; nothing is known about this relationship, except that it yielded an illegitimate son, Saias, who alone of Arvis's three children inherited his major Fjalar Holy Blood. This relationship presumably ended long before Grann 757, but the two remained on good terms with Aida continuing to serve as a prominent general.

In Grann 761, Aida led the Velthomer army at Velthomer Castle itself in the defense of Grannvale, in preparation for the "traitorous" Sigurd's return to the country, stationing Meteor-wielding mages atop cliffs around the Velthomer and western Aed Desert area. Deployed with her was Duke Reptor of Friege and his army, who was suspicious of Arvis's intent but complied nonetheless. As soon as Sigurd's army approached Velthomer, Aida issued the command for all Velthomer forces to turn on Reptor and attack his army, in accordance with Arvis's plan; between Aida's mages and Sigurd's army, Reptor's group was overwhelmed and defeated. Once Reptor was defeated, Aida directed Sigurd to Belhalla to receive a ceremonial welcome from Arvis and the Rot Ritter, an event which turned into the Battle of Belhalla.

At some point in the following years, Aida was killed by Manfroy of the Loptr Church in a bid to protect Saias from them; in response, Cohen sent Saias to an isolated monastery in which to hide and learn, in preparation for the day where his abilities would grant him enough public esteem to afford him protection.[2]
