Her brilliant speeches, exceptional sense of style, and elegant bearing lend her the allure of a deity. Yet, perhaps she is most revered for her unparalleled flair for the dramatic. As a character in a popular production at the *Epiclese* Opera House once put it: "Life is a theater; you never know what might happen in the next act." Furina is much like the most unpredictable of theatrical characters—her actions are all but impossible to foresee. Perhaps this is precisely why this goddess of judgment and justice—so unattainable in her grandeur—holds such a fascination for ordinary people. But when the curtain falls, only emptiness remains. Furina is acquainted with Neuvillette; the two occasionally enjoy a chat, and so on.
