Celeste D. Auslese's story.
Background
Before the Great Collapse, Celeste D. Auslese was the leader of the faction of the Ancient Zemurian Civilization that gathered around the Aureole, Sept-Terrion of Space.[1] Together they lived on the floating city of Liber Ark.
Originally, the Aureole only passively granted wishes to owners of Gospels, orbment-like devices capable of interacting with the Aureole.[1] Over the course of time and for reasons unknown, however, the Aureole gained autonomy and actively sought to assist humanity.[1]
Celeste D. Auslese noticed this autonomy led to the deterioration of human lives.[1] As described in a report found in Trails in the Sky SC, the Aureole facilitated the creation of virtual realities intended to induce euphoria in participants. It even altered brain chemistry to achieve this. It was no different from taking a powerful euphoric stimulant and hallucinogen at the same time. Worse still, there were no side effects. No physical ones, at least."[1]
After realizing the Aureole's mode of operation had shifted from granting wishes to bestowing gifts, Celeste's observations led her to decide to seal the Aureole and its powers.[1] With the Aureole having gained autonomy, it was not possible to simply wish for the Aureole to stop operating.[1] Celeste concluded that another power source was required in order to stop the Aureole.[1]
In her quest for an alternative power source, Celeste and her team resorted to the energy streaming through the septium veins and ordered facilities to be built on top of these veins.[1] The Aureole, aware of Celeste's plan, prioritized the protection of the Liber Ark above else and considered her actions potential threat.[1]
To prevent the Aureole's elimination of the facilities, Celeste deceived the Aureole into perceiving the facilities as devices to monitor the activity of the septium veins.[1] Ultimately, the facility, later known as the Sealed Area, was built roughly 500 arge beneath the surface where most septium veins gathered, on the eastern Valleria Lakeshore and the present location of the royal capital of Grancel.[1] In addition to this subterranean facility, the Ahnenburg and the four Device Towers at the edges of Valleria Lake were built as additional measures for the Sealing Mechanism.[1]

One of Celeste's team members was manipulated into revealing the plan to the Aureole, but since the knowledge of this particular member was limited to the underground facility, the Aureole targeted exclusively said facility through the manifestation of Reveries, self-defense mechanisms.[1] While the majority could be held back by Celeste's team, one Reverie broke into the facility and reached the deepest sections.[1] Moments before the Reverie could launch its attack, the First Barrier, the Temporal Freeze, was successfully activated.[1] A light fired from the facility reflected off the inner wall of the Ahnenburg caught the Aureole floating in the sky, causing the Aureole to be sealed away and the Reveries to stop in its track.[1] The one Reverie that broke into the facility is the same as the one that is fought at the end of 영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 FC when the First Barrier is deactivated through the use of the Gospel.
The Second Barrier was activated using the four Device Towers spread through the land.[1] The Second Barrier, known as the Gravity Barrier, manifested gravity inside the dimension the Aureole was sealed in to make sure the Aureole was incapable of returning to reality in case the First Barrier were to fail.[1] All Gospels that were remaining on the Liber Ark were sealed alongside the Aureole.[1]
영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 the 3rd
In order to buy time for these plans to succeed, Celeste found a way to slow down the Aureole's ability to process via Phantasma, a higher plane of existence that acted as a subsystem for the Aureole in order to incorporate and process the will of the Liber Ark's populace.[2] They ended up developing the Recluse Cube, an object able to interact with Phantasma without relying on the Aureole as an intermediary.[2]
Celeste used the Recluse Cube to create a partial copy of her personality inside Phantasma and began working to sabotage Phantasma's processing functionality.[2] After Phantasma was successfully sealed away alongside the Aureole, the copy of Celeste's personality fell into a slumber that would last until S.1203, the events of 영웅전설 하늘의 궤적 the 3rd.[2]
The copy of Kevin's stigma forcefully takes over the administration of the Cube and Phantasma, sealing Celeste's copy away within a crystal. Nevertheless, the copy found a way to communicate with Kevin and help guide him until he fully releases her from the crystal. She regains some of her administrative powers, opening new pathways for the party and helping them navigate the system, including their activation of the copied Arseille. Her last act is to open the gate back to the real world. She then enters a final slumber until the Recluse Cube shuts down and Phantasma is no more, ending her copy's existence.
