Scarlette was the leader of Bacchus' personal guard. She was also in charged of obtaining new warriors for his gladiatorial games. She has always disdained her duties, but any disobedience would be a sure death at Bacchus' orders. She was witness to Kristof and the other gladiator's escape, but instead of alerting her guards just remained silent and allowed them to escape. She knew what she had done would mean certain death, so she also escaped into the night. She has recently arrived at the Black Citadel to warn the Emperor that Bacchus has sent out mercenaries to recapture those who had escaped, and to seek protection for herself from the bounty Bacchus put on her head.
