Jozette Cecille

General Jozette Cecille is an high-ranking member of the Kimlascan military and an important supporting character appearing in Tales of the Abyss.

Personal History
Little about General Cecille's life before the events of the game is revealed, though she does resemble the citizens of Malkuth, who tend to have lightly-coloured hair and eyes, more so than Kimlascans, who tend to be darker. It is, however, presumable that she was born a Kimlascan citizen, as her loyalty would most likely have been questioned otherwise, and her promotion to the rank of general would most likely not have happened.

Cecille makes her first appearance in Kaitzur Naval Port on orders to escort Luke home from his adventures in the Malkuth Empire, and is later shown to be commanding troops during the war waged on the Rugnica Plains under the supreme command of Count Almandine. She is later found to have fallen into the Qliphoth alondside the bulk of both Kimlasca and Malkuth forces, as well as General Frings, who is revealed to have rescued her after discovering her trapped within one of the fissures caused by the fall of most of central Rugnica. The two appear to have developed a sort of affection for one another, though following her return to Kaitzur from Engave, Cecille decides to break ties with Frings by way of sending him a dagger, to which he replies with a letter, after which Cecille accompanies Luke and his companions to Chesedonia to refuse Frings's advances in person.

In Chesedonia, Cecille reveals that her family holds a debt to Kimlasca, of which Frings has himself heard rumours, despite which he claims that he believes her to be the bride foretold for him in the Score, after which she mentions something having happened between herself and Duke Fabre. Shortly after, it is revealed that Frings has given Cecille a ring, a memento of his mother, and proposed to her, though his parting dialogue indicates that she has refused him, her reason being that she must restore the house of Cecille to grace, revealing her heritage to be that of a disgraced noble family. Cecille departs from Chesedonia after asking that Luke return the ring to Frings.
