After getting rescued by Leon at the age of 9, Elise has desired to go into the public service. She enrolled in Dominia's Royal Academy at the age of 10 and joined the Order of Astillan Knights at the age of 14 as a cadet. She was the star cadet and graduated from the Order as a full-fledged knight and valedictorian at 17. Elise realized from a young age that the key to a stable and prosperous society is a strong rule of law and that the Crystal of Arathos, the Apostles, and the Twin Frost Pillars are key to pushing for strict laws and strong governments throughout Arathos. She was elated when she was invited to join the Twin Frost Pillars after her graduation. Elise aims to play her part in enforcing the law and getting people to play their part in an orderly, enlightened society. She sees her role as not just enforcer but educator in getting everyone to see the value of a strong leadership.
