Biography
Early life unknown. During her time as an active warrior, she was a single-digit, but Awakened at some point, and attacked the city of Gonal, leading it to ruins.

Surprise visitor
Amid ruins of Gonal, the Gonal Hunt collapses into chaos, as Ophelia cuts off Clare's legs. She challenges Clare to reattach them as she fights Raki in sword match. With each passing minute, Ophelia increase her skill level, until Raki is nearly killed.

ForA young girl appears. Raki warns her away. But she Awakens into her Awakened form. Clare reattaches her legs, but Ophelia throws Raki to Single-digit. She hold down Clare face-down as Raki is about to be eaten. Clare surpasses her limit, seemingly Awakens, escapes Ophelia's grip, and cuts Raki free of the tentacles. While Ophelia is preoccupied with the Single-digit, Clare flees Gonal with Raki.

Ophelia tries to reach Clare, but the Awakened Being catches her and breaks her neck. She thinks Ophelia is dead and casts aside the body. Ophelia then springs to life and decapitates the former Single-digit. Shortly before her death, the Awakened called Ophelia "The real monster".

Behind the Scenes
