Luciana Giallo
- Legata (formerly)
- War Correspondent
- Marcello Giallo (husband)
- Arturia Giallo (daughter)
- Federico Giallo (distant nephew)
Luciana Giallo is an NPC in Arknights. She is a major supporting character in Prelude Suite: Cadenza Virtuosa.
Background[edit]
Luciana was Arturia's mother, as well as a Legata working for the Lateran Curia. Alongside her husband Marcello, she has been taking care of her nephew Federico after the death of his parents during a mission for the Notarial Hall.[1] However, despite living a seemingly happy life with her family, Luciana was deeply troubled with her job as a diplomat, worrying about the situation those living outside the Holy City were facing, and how she couldn't do anything to help them.
Heavily impacted by her death, Marcello believed that Arturia's Arts lead to her mother's ruin while Arturia claimed that despite her relationship with Marcello, Luciana didn't want to bond with him, as her emotions were "blinded" by his strong affection. Arturia's attempts to make him realize this were fruitless.[2]
Story[edit]
Prelude Suite: Cadenza Virtuosa[edit]
Luciana initally refused to play together with Arturia and Federico, as she was still stressed by thoughts of the war beyond Laterano. Marcello tries to cheer her up with one of the water guns they brought. Arturia and Federico then decide to join in.
One night, after reading Alex and the Giant to Federico and Arturia, Luciana went to a storeroom filled with her belongings, burdened by her inner conflict and dilemma. Arturia found her mother in the storeroom and asked why the giant did not free himself with his own strength. Luciana answered that the giant needed the courage given to him by others. Inspired by this, Arturia invited her mother to listen to her music. Her performance unknowingly induced an illusion where the giant from the fairy tale encouraged her to liberate her emotions. This filled Luciana with newfound resolve, moving her to tears and thanking her daughter.
However, Luciana resigned from her job and left her family without any notice or message. Months after her departure, news of her death and the discovery of her corpse in a foreign conflict zone devastated her family, especially Marcello. Among her recovered belongings were war photographs and a letter addressed to her family. In the letter, she elaborated on her dream of becoming a war correspondent, and expressed gratitude to Arturia for giving her the courage to follow this path.[3]
Although Arturia does not regret encouraging her mother to step outside the Holy city, she feels remorse for being unable to do anything to prevent her death.[4]
Executor: Enemy[edit]
Luciana was mentioned to have aided people from settlements, describing Laterano's beauty and encouraging them to seek refuge there in times of desperation. However, unbeknownst to her, many of her former friends and colleagues dismissed and laughed at her ideals, while even those who still held goodwill toward her ultimately turned away those in need.[2]
