Percival Beaumont
Emery is Percival's sibling. Percival says Emery has a reputation among the Beaumonts as a sort of "philosopher". Although he sometimes believes Emery's great wit clouds his/her judgement, he allows Emery to choose a suitor and doesn't protest when Cyrus Vescovi becomes Emery's fiance. Because he believes in honor, he respects Emery's wishes so long as they do not prohibit a better future for House Beaumont.

Your Character
In Chapter 3, when you help Percival and Theodosia out of the trap they set off and later win the hunt, you impress him. He offers his sibling, Emery, as a potential suitor for you. In Chapter 4, you meet Emery for the first time and his/her personality is not quite what you expected. When Emery confesses love for Cyrus, you can manipulate him/her into announcing it to the nobles or bring it up to Percival's attention. In Chapter 5, at the Tournament of Flowers, you give Renza the Vescovi flower, which she sends to Emery to enrage Theodosia.

In Chapter 7, when you, Vasco, the Regent, and Crown Shield are attempting to escape the Fierro yacht, you have the option to head for a boat near Emery's room. You can distract Emery with a philosophical question or try to open his/her eyes to Cyrus's infidelity, which falls on deaf ears. In Chapter 9, at the Beltane Festival, if you decide to try to get Annalisa and Percival to share a Beltane kiss, you run into Emery, where he/she still believes you are in love with him/her. Emery allows you to use his/her horse, but the horse runs away, almost knocking Annalisa and Percival down.

Cyrus Vescovi
Emery loves Cyrus whole-heartedly. Even if you bring up his unfaithfulness in Chapter 4 and Chapter 7, Emery will think that you are the one who is actually in love with him/her and are lashing out to try to cover your pain at his/her refusal. It isn't until Chapter 11 at the Nevrakis event that Theodosia speaks of Cyrus and Renza's affair that opens Emery's eyes. Nevertheless, Emery remains steadfast in his/her affections for Cyrus and begins to speak a long drawn-out poem about his/her love in Chapter 13.

Trivia

 * His/her character model resembles his/her descendant, Bertrand Beaumont, from The Royal Romance and The Royal Heir series.
 * The Beaumont motto for the time period is "Beaumonts stand true" rather than "The Depths Remember".
