You won't find Tepet Veii in the annals. Unlike her glorious older sister, whose inevitable rise to power she watched with envy, the second daughter of Tepet Ellora never did anything worth remembering. She failed to exalt in her teens, failed in her application to the House of Bells, failed to find advancement in a meager clerical posting in the Tepet Legions, and failed to attract a suitable mate. All the while, the Roseblack's legend grew and grew until it eclipsed nearly every other member of the family. To the Ebon Dragon's senses, Veeii's bitterness was like a vertical black spike towering over the emotional landscape of the Blessed Isles; he couldn't have resisted the urge to tempt her if he'd tried. For her part, Veii couldn't crawl inside the Chrysalis Grotesque fast enough. Since emerging as the Sainted Maiden of Other People's Fortunes, Veii has reveled in the taste of a real, true Exaltation, and become a religious figure famous for bestowing unearned rewards. All over Creation the least, the bitter-hearted, and the disenfranchised whisper to one another that if you go to a certain spot, kneel down, and pray, a shadowy woman robed in dark crimson and shadowy jade will appear and grant you your heart's greatest desire, in exchange for a few small favors.
 
 
 
Since her exaltation, Veii has been slowly grinding the Roseblack's fortunes into the dirt. Her earliest and sweetest success lay in corrupting Sesus Kajak Milada, the Roseblack's first love, into an akuma of the Ebon Dragon. While not directly responsible for the fall of House Tepet at the battle of Futile Blood -- you'd need a twenty page diagram to cover all the hands stirring that pot -- Veii was responsible for Ejava's ensuing exile, and in setting much of the Blessed Isle against the young general. The fact that overcoming Veii's adversities has, ironically, only brought the Roseblack to greater prominence fuels Veii's resentment. Despite her feelings, she would never turn a killing hand against Tepet Ejava, and has actually thwarted plans against the Roseblack's life; she wants her sister's acknowledgement and awe, not her death, even if it requires breaking the Realm in half to get it. You might think that no one would be petty enough to free the Ebon Dragon solely to score a point in a childish game of oneupsmanship, but you might turn out to be wrong.
