Viessa is the scythe of Truacia in Alacrya. She trained Nico with Melzri after his return to Alacrya from Dicathen, but she did not fight in the initial war in Dicathen.
She and fellow scythe, Melzri ,were sent to Dicathen, accompanied by a squad of Wraiths, to Vildorial. Their mission was twofold: to reclaim Darv and to either capture or eliminate Arthur Leywin. Despite initially having the upper hand and nearly achieving victory against the remaining lances and people, they ultimately lost the battle. To their astonishment, Arthur proved to be a formidable opponent, eliminating the Wraiths and leaving them with no choice but to retreat. Arthur instills a lot of fear into them, given his actions in incapacitating Nico and killing Cadell, as well as dealing with the Wraiths themselves. Despite being enemies, they couldn't help but show him respect by bowing to him before withdrawing.[1]
Later, Viessa, along with Melzri, Mawar, Cecilia, Nico and Draneeve go to Nirmala where they fight Arthur, Chul and Sylvie, believing them to have killed Sovereign Exeges. Despite outnumbering the dicathians, the battle has no clear winner, leaving Mawar, Draneeve, Chul and Arthur severely injured. Viessa fought Arthur who in the end manages to stab her with an aether blade. Viessa falls to the ground and dies in the arms of a furious Melzri.[2]Appearance[]
Viessa's skin is as pale as her eyes are dark, and a sea of purple hair spilled down over her shoulders and back. She is taller than Seris, made even taller by the heeled leather boots she usually wore, their teal coloring matching the runes stitched into her fine white and gray battle robes. The black voids of her eyes were always unreadable, and emotion rarely interrupted the porcelain coldness of her face. In addition, she accessories her outfit with silvery cords from which pieces of vertebrae from her victims hang.[3]
Personality[]
Viessa always seems to keep her composure and be analytical, thus being able to make good decisions. She is ruthless and sadistic in battle as she enjoys playing with her opponents mind. She never shows any emotion on her face, making her difficult to read.[4]

The Dead Three: Bilal, Bivran and Bivrae are all wards of Viessa. She took them in and trained them after they were orphaned.[5] Both Bilal and Bivrae end up becoming her retainers, though she shows no reaction to the deaths Bilal and Bivran, and Bivrae outlives her mentor.
