Gloxinia’s Backstory
Gloxinia ruled over the Fairy Forest, caring for the Sacred Tree and ensuring peace for the fairy race. He shared a close bond with his sister, Gerheade, and their forest home. During the Holy War 3,000 years ago, he joined the Goddess Clan, giants, and humans to fight the Demon Clan.
A tragedy struck when the Fairy Forest was attacked, leaving Gerheade gravely injured. Gloxinia mistakenly believed that Rou, a human ally, had betrayed him and caused the destruction. Enraged and grief-stricken, he killed Rou in retaliation. This incident shattered his trust in others.
Joining the Demon Clan
After losing faith in his allies, Gloxinia abandoned the Fairy Clan and became one of the Ten Commandments, warriors chosen by the Demon King. He was given the Commandment of Repose, which curses anyone who fights with unrest or anger in his presence. As part of the Demon Clan, Gloxinia fought against those he once called allies in the ongoing Holy War.
Meeting King and Diane
In the present day, Gloxinia confronts the Seven Deadly Sins alongside the other Commandments. He fights Diane, the giantess, and King, the current Fairy King, showcasing his immense power as both a former Fairy King and a Commandment. Despite their clash, their meeting becomes a turning point.
The Demon King forces Gloxinia and his comrade, Drole, to test King and Diane by sending them through a trial. This trial transports the pair into Gloxinia and Drole’s bodies, letting them relive key moments from the Holy War 3,000 years ago.
King’s actions during the trial affected Gloxinia. Watching King choose trust and kindness even in dire situations forces Gloxinia to confront his own choices. He realizes he had misjudged Rou and acted rashly in the past. This experience awakens a desire to seek redemption for his actions as a Commandment.
Defection and Sacrifice
Gloxinia and Drole eventually leave the Demon Clan, abandoning their titles as Commandments. They ally with the Seven Deadly Sins to help end the Holy War. During a confrontation with the demon Chandler, Gloxinia fights valiantly to protect his newfound allies.
In his final moments, Gloxinia sacrifices himself to save King and the others. His death marks the end of his journey, but his actions show his renewed sense of purpose and dedication to making amends for his past mistakes.
