*{{title|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}

Igrene has an overall rather solemn but very just and loyal personality. As the Guardian of Nabata, she takes her role very seriously, doing everything she can to protect her homeland, whether it be with her bow and arrow or through diplomacy, such as when she requests to Etrurian general Douglas to not have his fellow comrades attack the village.<ref>{{Cite|'''Igrene:''' I fend off invaders in the desert heat.<br>'''Douglas:''' I see. And do you need something from me?<br>'''Igrene:''' I wish for you to promise me never to attack Nabata.|[[Igrene]] and [[Douglas]]'s C support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref> However, outside of this demeanor, she has a very soft side to her. She is in deep pain and sorrow of the downfall of her family. She holds back her emotions when talking with Fae, even though it is clear she is pained by these thoughts.<ref>{{Cite|'''Fae:''' What's wrong? Do your hands hurt?<br>'''Igrene:''' Oh, I'm sorry... I was just remembering my daughter. She was a very attractive little girl, much like you.<br>'''Fae:''' What happened to her?<br>'''Igrene:''' She's gone... She went to a faraway place.|[[Fae]] and [[Igrene]]'s B support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref> However, when she tries to convince [[Astore]] that he is indeed her husband Golrois, she is much more emotional about the situation, especially at its conclusion.<ref>{{Cite|'''Astore:''' ... I'm sorry to say this to you, but... that guy is dead. He was devoured by the quicksand of Nabata. All this stuff about spies and whatnot... It's just your imagination. Or perhaps you saw an illusion in the desert heat.<br>'''Igrene:''' ...... I... see... Then... I must have been dreaming... I must have had a dream of a short period of happiness...<br>'''Astore:''' ... Igrene. ... No... Sorry, forget it.<br>'''Igrene:''' ......<br>'''Astore:''' Just... forget it all. ... Please.|[[Astore]] and [[Igrene]]'s A support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref> It also turns out that she was a fairly religious individual, until her husband disappeared and her daughter passed on.<ref>{{Cite|'''Saul:''' Oh, please wait! It is a wonderful thing to believe, Igrene!<br>'''Igrene:''' Yes, I know. I used to believe in God as well. Although it is a different God from yours, I think I was fairly serious about it.<br>'''Saul:''' Really? Why did you stop believing?<br>'''Igrene:''' Several years ago...I stopped praying. It was after I lost a loved one in battle.|[[Saul]] and [[Igrene]]'s B support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref>

Through support conversations, it is shown that Igrene is very good friends with Sophia and Fae, backed by the fact that she is their sole protector. In fact, to the both of them, she acts as sort of a kind and gentle mother figure, having had a child in the past. This is especially the case with the little girl Fae, to which Igrene treats much like her daughter. She speaks to and treats her much like a mother would, and they both share a very close bond, such as when Igrene scolds Fae about keeping her promises<ref>{{Cite|'''Igrene:''' Fae, you should be doing what you're told.<br>'''Fae:''' Aww... But Fae doesn't want to.<br>'''Igrene:''' Fae.<br>'''Fae:''' ... Er...<br>'''Igrene:''' Say you're sorry.<br>'''Fae:''' ... Fae's sorry.<br>'''Igrene:''' Look, Fae. You promised Roy you would do what he asked, right? If you make a promise, you have to keep it. Okay?<br>'''Fae:''' Okay...<br>'''Igrene:''' Good girl. Well then, let's go.<br>'''Fae:''' Yeah.|[[Igrene]] and [[Fae]]'s C support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref> or offering to braid her hair.<ref>{{Cite|'''Igrene:''' Come here, Fae. I'll braid your hair for you.<br>'''Fae:''' Yay!<br>'''Igrene:''' Do you like having your hair touched, Fae?<br>'''Fae:''' Yes! ... Igrene, is Fae gonna get pretty?<br>'''Igrene:''' Yes. You have such lovely hair... You'll become very, very beautiful when you grow up.<br>'''Fae:''' Like you?<br>'''Igrene:''' Well... I suppose.<br>'''Fae:''' Yay!|[[Igrene]] and [[Fae]]'s B support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref> The same can somewhat be said for the relationship between Igrene and Sophia, as Igrene acts as a guide for Sophia, who has not been exposed to the outside world until recently.<ref>{{Cite|'''Igrene:''' Sophia, are you all right?<br>'''Sophia:''' ... Oh... Igrene... Yes... I'm fine... I'm just a little dizzy...<br>'''Igrene:''' Don't stress yourself if you're not feeling well.<br>'''Sophia:''' Yes... The outside world... It's so big... I'm a little... excited...<br>'''Igrene:''' Well, you've never been outside Arcadia. You can ask me anything... I know the outside world fairly well, so I can explain things to you.<br>'''Sophia:''' Yes...|[[Igrene]] and [[Sophia]]'s C support|Fuuin no Tsurugi}}</ref>
