Citrinne will be recruited as part of your unit during the first battle of Chapter 7: Dark Emblem. At the start of this chapter, you will find yourself in Brodia. Whilst you are in this kingdom, you meet with Lapis, Alcryst, and Citrinne.
Alcryst first mistakes you for bandits, but realizes later on and apologizes. As you make your way along with the new trio, you will encounter Hortensia and battle against her.

Best class
