Rose Oriana/Relationships

Raphael Oriana
Raphael is the father of Rose and the king of the Oriana Kingdom. Rose deeply loved her father. Upon discovering that her father had been brainwashed, Rose attacked the perpetrator. However, once she understood that Raphael will be forced to cause a war between their kingdom and Midgar, Rose regretfully put her father down.

After killing her father, Rose has bear large amounts of guilt and constantly has nightmares about him hating her. Her guilt dissipated after learning how much Raphael loved her and the sacrifices, he made to ensure her safety from the Cult of Diablos. Rose vowed to continue her father's mission and purged the cult out of the kingdom.

Reina Oriana
Rose was very protective of her mother, even going so far as to defect from Shadow Garden when the Cult of Diablos seemingly took her mother as a hostage. Unfortunately, she became heartbroken when she learned that she was one of the Cult's collaborators. Still, she was horrified when she witnessed her mother cut down by Mordred.

Cid Kagenō / Shadow (John Smith)
Rose is deeply in love with Cid. When she battled him for the first time, she started to develop a deep respect for him for not giving up during their battle despite all the injuries he had received-- unaware they were faked injuries. During the terrorist attack, he quickly interceded an attack meant for her and she cried after Cid's perceived death, which she interpreted was his love for to her. After the attack ended, she learned that he was still alive and went straight to his hospital bed and hugged his hand while thanking him for saving her. This was the impetus for her harboring romantic feelings for Cid, as she stated he earned her love.

At the Bushin festival after Shadow saved her from Chancellor Perv's men, Rose recognized that she had met him before in their childhood, as he saved her from bandits under the alias "Fancy Bandit Slayer." It was that rescue which motivated her to get stronger to defend herself and his beautiful sword style which inspired her to take up the sword for her art form.

Since then, Cid became one of Rose's most important emotional drives. She constantly showers him with affection and holds his hand, despite his attempts to shake her. She also works hard to show everyone, including her father of Cid's worth as her betrothed. After joining Shadow Garden, she was not as fazed that her clothes were torn as much as the fact that Cid's "gift" was destroyed in front of her eyes, emotionally damaging her. During the Civil War in Oriana Kingdom, when a depressed Rose was forced to marry Perv Asshat, Cid was once more the one that inspired Rose to rebel.

As for his Shadow persona, Rose had long admired him ever since she encountered him as a child when he rescued her from kidnappers, which also developed her love for swordsmanship. Her admiration increased when she listened to Shadow's playing Moonlight Sonata as she fled her pursuers. When Shadow rescued her from her suicide attempt in the God of War festival, she thoroughly believed that Shadow was the hero, "the sole light" fighting for justice against the Cult's darkness. After abandoning Shadow Garden, Rose regretted never repaying Shadow's goodwill, but was surprised when he tried helping her, which revealed her mother's treachery and sparked her resolve to lead her nation to betterment. Following the Oriana Kingdom Operation, Rose briefly deduced that Cid was Shadow, but ultimately refuted her conclusion as her overthinking things, but may likely figure it out while she is still in contact with Shadow Garden.

After her mother's betrayal and Oriana's civil war, despite being blamed for everything and losing her entire family, Rose stated that the only thing left in her life was her love for Cid Kagenō, without fully saying it to the public. While she still had that and until Rose can mature, Cid would become the only motivation giving her the strength to continue.

Alpha
Like the rest of the numbers, Rose is respectful of Alpha due to the elf's leadership and providing Rose the chance to challenge the Cult of Diablos. Having a respectful subordinate-master relationship, Alpha holds Rose in high esteem because she believes that Rose is a fundamental piece in Cid's plans against the cult. This is in part due to Shadow gifting Rose as part of his power, a blessing only eight others before have received.

Beta/Natsume Kafka
Rose first met Beta in her public persona as Natsume Kafka, Rose's favorite author, admiring Beta's Natsume persona and the original stories she's had published. The two would form an alliance after the Sanctuary revelations with the Cult's origins, but Beta has yet to reveal her true identity. This was also the case as Beta would be masked when leading 664, 665, and 666 (Rose) during the Red Moon Incident into the Crimson Tower to research vampire progenitor blood and demon possession. Rose also trusts Beta as a senior, listening to her guidance during the confrontation with Mordred amid the Black Rose activation.

Gamma/Luna
Rose frequents the Mitsugoshi Company stores and associated restaurants, as they are popular within the youths of royal peerage. Following the encounter with John Smith, Rose as 666 reports to Gamma and Alpha, indicating Rose is privy to Mitsugoshi being a public front for Shadow Garden. While their relationship isn't well explored, it can be deduced that Rose has respect for Gamma given her business acumen and leadership prowess as Alpha's sub-commander.

Delta
Upon witnessing her fight, Rose came feeling pity for her opponents.

Epsilon/Shiron
Before joining Shadow Garden, Rose had immense respect for the revered and acclaimed pianist, Lady Shiron, especially with her original music like Moonlight Sonata. After joining Shadow Garden, she was not aware that Shiron was Epsilon's public persona, as she was astonished that Cid became her "apprentice", pondering what he must have done to achieve such an honor. Working under Epsilon, Rose was lied to about her mother's safety as they didn't want to burden her, and both were shocked to learn Reina Oriana was a Cult's conspirators, but Rose didn't not hold that against Epsilon. During the Black Rose incident, Rose fought alongside Beta and Epsilon, heeding her senior's guidance as they worked together to battle Mordred.

Lambda
Rose learned her combat under Lambda. While Lambda emotionally devastated Rose by destroying Cid's wrapper, Rose utilized Lambda's training as 666 on missions and during the Black Rose event.

Nu
Nu serves as Gamma's direct subordinate, relaying her commands to 664, 665, and 666 for the counterfeit investigation mission. Rose's interactions with her are limited, but it can be inferred that Rose respects her while not really fully knowing her character.

Victoria / 559
Victoria was Rose's superior during the first Oriana Kingdom operation. From the beginning, they did not get along, mostly due to Victoria's dislike of her. This eventually culminated in Victoria branding Rose a "traitor" when she deviated from the mission to save her mother. In turn, Rose criticized Victoria's leadership, citing that she did not even bother to explain their objective. Ultimately, their banter was one of the reasons for the operation's failure.

After Perv Asshat and Mordred's death, Victoria nonetheless given Rose another chance, but warned her if she mess their mission again, she will kill her.

664 & 665
Following her induction into Shadow Garden, Rose was assigned to a team that comprised herself, 665, and 664 who is the leader. She developed a close camaraderie with her teammates and is overjoyed that the two came to her aid in protecting the Oriana Kingdom from the magical beasts. After Rose became the new queen of the Oriana Kingdom, 664 and 665 were send by Shadow Garden to serve as her bodyguards, disguised as maids.

Alexia Midgar
Due to their royal backgrounds, Rose and Alexia usually get along and tend to have a friendly relationship, this has led them to form an alliance (along with Natsume) in order to protect the people who are important to them. They are unaware that they are really love rivals for Cid.

When Rose fought against Alexia, in which she and Natsume were looking for her, Rose realized that Alexia was influenced by Shadow, seeing that she was copying his sword movements, which made Rose, in the end, love her. he had to defeat with sheer magical force.

Margaret
Margaret was Rose's personal maid. The two were very close with Rose enjoying her maid's smile. However their friendship took a sad turn when Margaret learnt that Rose murdered her father which lead to their kingdom undergoing civil war. She despised Rose ever since but still did her best to tend to her when she finally returned to Oriana.

Their friendship was restored after Margaret learnt the full truth of Rose's actions and the princess coming to her aid and protected her from a Magical Beast. Margaret tearfully apologized to Rose.

Perv Asshat
Rose was hesitant to have Perv as her fiancé, and tried to petition her father for Cid instead. Finding Perv brainwashed her father, Rose's uncertainty turned to hatred upon this discovery. By wearing the ring Cid "left" for her, which was the king's last will in a hologram recording, Rose exposed Perv's evils and cleared her name to the audience in attendance.

Mordred
Rose had originally heard of Mordred from the intelligence reports within Shadow Garden, knowing he was the Ninth Seat of Rounds and held incredible power. When she met him during the Black Rose event, Rose learned about Mordred's involvement with her father's deterioration, and also the manipulations he did to Oriana for the Cult, Rose held incredible hatred for Mordred. Rose was satisfied when Shadow ended Mordred, and worked to legally undo what she could regarding the Cult's influence in Oriana.

Iris Midgar
Their interactions were little and brief; however due to her status as Student Council President and royal background, Rose was the only known witness Iris spoke to when the Academy was terrorized by Diablo Cult members posing as Shadow Garden. Her testimony confirmed both organizations existence and forced Iris to investigate them and ponder whether Shadow is an enemy or not.
