Theresa

A Walk in the Dust

In the year 1084, Kal'tsit, while participating in a party in Count Vincent's manor in Victoria, receives a letter from Theresa informing her about the reconstruction of Kazdel. In the letter, she expressed her thanks to the then-General Theresis and the Military Commission for keeping foreign powers from interfering with the construction of a Kazdelian nomadic city. She also expresses worry that Theresis' mind was becoming more extreme as each day passed due to foreign pressure. He was becoming more stubborn and refusing to listen to her advice. She wrote that she hoped Kal'tsit could return to Kazdel as soon as possible.

In the letter, Theresa also mentions two additional incidents. The first is the anointment of the next Banshee Lord in which she's surprised to see that the new lord would be a young man, one who would later become Logos. She saw potential inside him that could bring changes to the conservative Royal Court. The other is the joint excavation of the Rhodes Island landship in Rim Billiton. She requests Kal'tsit to take a look at the relic upon her return.^[17]

Vigilo

During the civil war, Theresa has a meeting with the Royal Court and receives some intel. She's disappointed by the fact that the Court has not taken to her idealistic (and uncharacteristic for Sarkaz) pacifism, especially when the King of the Nachzehrers frequently objected her proposal. After discussing what happened with the Court to Kal'tsit, and a bit with Doctor, Theresa decides to it's best for Babel to leave Kazdel for awhile.

Somewhere afterwards, a traitorous Sarkaz named Marco attempts to assassinate the Doctor, but is arrested by Scout before he can carry it out. Theresa and Kal'tsit come for a look to find a rather confused Marco. Scout and Kal'tsit insist that death is the only punishment for his betrayal. Theresa asks what the Doctor thinks, and even though they protest, she ultimately agrees with Kal'tist; death will be Marco's punishment. Marco later commits suicide, so as not to be an embarrassment to Her Majesty.^[18]

In another flashback of the Doctor's past, Theresa is shown to be a workaholic who hasn't rested for days before giving in to Kal'tsit and a little bit of the Doctor's insistence. She also has a chat with the young Amiya about Ascalon leading her army to leave the landship. After sending Amiya off, she talks about Ascalon's mission, saying hopefully that the end of the war draws near.^[19]

Darknights Memoir

The Sarkaz King standing in the middle of a battlefield

Theresa, despite Kal'tsit's opposition, is responsible for saving her contracted mercenaries, Hoederer, Ines, and W, from the ambush by Theresis' forces during the escort of the Rhodes Island landship.^[20] Her appearance causes the mercenaries to tremble and stop their fight out of respect for the King. After the rescue mission, she brings the trio to the landship for medical treatment. After the trio's recovery a few days later, Theresa meets with Hoederer who was talking with Kal'tsit about their future. He's surprised to learn that the King would be Babel's commander, but she tells him there's no need to be formal since they're no longer in Kazdel.^[21]

Theresa's motherly side influences the three mercenaries. Even though Hoederer and Ines decide to leave Babel after years of serving, they continue their cooperation with Babel out of their loyalty to the King. W is so impressed by Theresa's pure, kind heart that she continues to serve Babel until its tragic fall.å
