The Sparrowfeathers (セキレイの羽, Sekirei no Hane^?, "Wagtail's Wing") is a guild and group of traveling merchants in Tales of Zestiria.

Description[]

The Sparrowfeathers is a merchandising guild that travels the continent. Publicly, Eguille acts as the leader^[1], while Rose works as the negotiator. The guild, however, serves as a mask for the Scattered Bones (風の骨, Kaze no Hone^?, "Bones of the Wind"), an infamous assassins guild lead by Rose. Despite the nature of their business, the team possesses a strong sense of honor. They consider it their job to punish evil and never kill those whom they cannot reason as such.

The Scattered Bones are experts in their field of work, never failing to kill their target, and possessing an expansive information network which they utilize to investigate and locate targets. The members of the Scattered Bones carry a close bond of trust between them and take care of one another, accepting each other as family.

History[]

Before the Scattered Bones, the team was a famous mercenary band called the Windriders ( 風の傭兵団, Kaze no Yohei-Dan^?, "Mercenary Group of the Wind"), led by Brad. Among its members were several of those within the assassins guild, including both Eguille and Rose, the latter of whom having been raised in the team. Unbeknownst to the mercenaries, their band was watched over by two Wind seraphim, Lafarga and Dezel.

Five years before the start of the game, in recognition of their fame, the Windriders were given an opportunity to join with the Rolance Empire. The arrangement came from Prince Konan, who also proposed to marry Rose, and the mercenaries were eager to accept his offer. In light of this, Lafarga deemed that the two seraphim would have to part ways with their human companions, which Dezel was not ready to accept. Soon after, as a result of Dezel's cursed blessing, Konan was transformed into a hellion. Konan framed Brad for conspiring in the death of Rolance's firstborn prince and had him both arrested and executed, and issued a warrant for his team. When Rose killed Konan in retaliation, Lafarga shielded her from the malevolence released from the Prince's body and transformed into a hellion. In the end, the Windriders were forced to disband.

Soon after, Dezel began taking control of Rose's body to form an assassins guild in an effort to revive the Windriders, which served as a memento of Lafarga.
