Rectrix

The figure who gets to work the moment the Ascendency begins, and one of the few Rosetta hopes survives.

Story so far

Rosetta, weighing whether to let The War Mages win, reasons that with all the crawlers dead the Celestial Ascendency will immediately kick off and Rectrix will get to work — implying Rectrix has a defined role waiting on the far side of the crawl's end.

She adds a hope: that perhaps after all this, York and Rectrix will survive. Pairing Rectrix with the captain of Homecoming Queen suggests Rectrix is among Rosetta's own people who stayed outside the dungeon rather than crawling.

Role

Operative whose work begins the instant the Ascendency starts.

Relationships

Celestial Ascendency — Goes to work the moment it begins.
York — Named together as the two Rosetta hopes survive.
Rosetta — Counted among her people outside the dungeon.
