Aurélie Boutier/Relationships

Frédérique Riester
Frédérique Riester and Aurélie Boutier are close childhood friends, with Aurélie being the Empress's religious partner and godmother to her son, Imperial Prince Cédric Riester. She would often nag the Empress about how her posture was terrible or how she should think about her age if she kept sitting while leaning back against the couch of her office. They are close enough for Aurélie to sit down across from her casually, as if it were nothing.

In private, they are comfortable enough to call each other by their middle names—though sometimes, this is done to take on a more serious or reprimanding tone with each other.

Cédric Riester
Cédric Riester is her godson. Sometimes, he acts as her guard when she walks places without any attendants.

Jesse Venetiaan
Upon seeing his reaction to hearing the fates that would befall Synkie and Peter, Aurélie thinks of Jesse as a kind child. Aurélie reminds Jesse of a professor he had in college.

Aurélie is impressed by Jesse, whose ether is so plentiful it was difficult for even her—a cardinal—to even fathom its full capacity.

Élisabeth Moutet
Aurélie thinks of Élisabeth as a modest child.
