* Aurora's kind, compassionate personality... [[GoodIsNotSoft well, unless you try to hurt her or her friends, that is]]. The residents of Lemuria, living in fear from [[BigBad Queen Umbra]]'s oppression after she [[TyrantTakesTheHelm usurped the throne]], are emotionally touched by her efforts to help them in their plights. Her breaking the curse on the Capilli inspires Finn to travel with her to discover bravery (which by the end he has found, as shown when he directly stands up to [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Umbra]] for all of Lemuria), and she also offers Óengus a chance to regain his lost honour among his clan, after he faked an alliance with Umbra to save them which backfired considerably. Óengus is eventually forgiven by his brother the Kategida Captain and allowed back into the clan.

* Throughout the game, Aurora consistently shows kindness and compassion to others... well, except for those who try to hurt her or her friends, that is.

* While certainly bittersweet, the ending is still overall optimistic. Aurora frees Lemuria from Umbra, and returns to Austria to rescue her people from the rising floodwaters. She leads them into Lemuria, where all the various races live and grow together in prosperity. The Narrator is revealed to be Queen Aurora herself, who is apparently telling the tale as a bedtime story to her own daughter.

** At the beginning of the game, Aurora finds herself separated from her beloved father, all alone in a strange land with no light. This leaves her extremely stressed and her early-game dialogue reflects this as she's somewhat irritable with limited patience for snark, resulting in a few minor squabbles between her and Igniculus. As she continues her journey, she forms strong bonds with her companions and eventually regards them as irreplaceable friends. A small but important detail is that at the beginning, she usually addresses Igniculus as "Sir Firefly", but her formality towards him gradually disappears as they become closer.

* Instead of [[spoiler:returning to the everlasting light plane with the other elementals]], Igniculus [[IChooseToStay chooses to stay]] with Aurora and save Lemuria.

* The end of the game, where Aurora's party members stand up against Queen Umbra. Each of them raise their sword for one another's races, showing the bond they've grown. And the first one to do so is [[spoiler:Genovefa. She notes that these events are greater than herself and her family, and declares with the others that she stands with the other races. Considering [[LastOfHerKind what she went through]], it's truly heartwarming to see her forge a true bond with her new companions.]]
