== Powers ==

'''Sense Mutiny''' (Elemental Warning)
* Sense when the very building blocks of hierarchy are coming apart and the world is being thrown in to chaos.
* Miraculous Action (with free Strike at Arc level)

'''Noble's Raiment''' (Illusions)
* Create a sense of nobility being present or absent.
* Miraculous Action:
** 0 MP — use this power (every few hours)
** 1 MP — use this power a second or later time in a handful of hours

'''Throne Scry''' (Spirit-Sense)
* Understand the hierarchy of things.
* Miraculous Action:
** 1 MP — learn things about your element

'''Thousand Righteous Orders''' (Spirit-Speaker)
* While Throne Scry is active, Ailsa can speak directly to the things of Majesty and have it do things that would be otherwise passed off as coincidence. 
* Special Action
 
'''Majesty''' (Spirit Boost)
* Invoke this power to miraculously strengthen Majesty. 
* Miraculous Action:
** 2 MP — boost your element 1/chapter
** 4 MP — use this power at any other time

'''Manifest Nobility''' (Divine Mantle)
* Become wreathed in the aura of Majesty
* Miraculous Action:
** 1+ MP - give all your miracles, for the rest of the scene, miraculous “Edge” equal to the MP spent. (This caps at a total of 3.) Miraculous Edge works just like Strike, but it doesn’t add to Strike (you get whichever is best) and it doesn’t break Auctorita.

'''Arc Power:''' Frantic

== Princess of Light ==
In Bridge to Terabithia terms, the Princess of Light was Ailsa's Leslie. She shook up Ailsa's world, helped Ailsa's spiritual power grow, and showed her the reality of the situation with the void. 

Ailsa saw her as a "well-traveled", "blithe spirited" teenage best friend. 

Optionally, if you want to push the theme of this the Princess of Light was also an immigrant (perhaps Indian or Pakistani), but that wasn't important to Ailsa. (It might have been important to those that viewed the friendship though.)
