> Knight remains focused on patching up the internal workings of the empire with Ioder, until the meeting in Aurnion about Tarqaron, which Hermit had raised. Despite her clear frustration at the actions of her sibling, and belief that Hermit ought to listen to her, Knight is not allowed to go along with Brave Vesperia simply because of the family tie to Hermit, as things would get emotional or . This is something she ignores, reaching Tarqaron far after the Guild.
> Knight doesn't fully know about what happened with Elucifur and Hermit, particularly because she wasn't really aware of the strength of their relationship (even if there was a inkling that 'eloped with' was probably far more accurate than her parents thought when they used it.) He had all but cut off contact prior to the Great War, but during those 2-3 years were hectic and spent trying not to lose more cities and lives to angry Entelexeia. The messages from her brother were cryptic enough to keep her wary, but not quite certain as of why, as Hermit wasn't sure if these messages would be intercepted and how much danger that blandly stating what he'd done could put on his twin. She does start poking around, but mostly as a side study to working out problems within the Empire
> What truly clicks all the things together is the rise of Tarqaron and Brave Vesperia's announcement that it was Hermit-or at least, the Duke that wasn't in the knights. It was so far out of her expected actions for her brother that it made hints and whispers make a great deal more of sense. Anger and sadness were the primary reactions - why the hell had he thought that (Tarqaron, Life-Force stealing Formula) was a good idea, why didn't he try talking to her. She grew to be of the opinion, with talking to Brave Vesperia and the little details they learned that she hadn't been able to find, that the Empire 'broke' her twin, so a good amount of anger was directed at whoever had done that- and more need to be up there so she could talk him down and then go hunt down whoever had.
> Brave Vesperia would figure out the truth, as they end up having to kill Hermit, and Knight is most upset about this and serves as another 'boss fight' (much to the Guild's dismay, this is actually a 'bad end' Vesperia-). Alexei may have had some suspicions, but no one else knew Knight long enough/close enough to get beyond the opinion of "that is a very androgynous guy". Yes, Hermit didn't dress like a lady (no dresses), but he also had a fairly light male/deep lady's voice like Knight, and kept long hair and the coat that hugs awkward ways. Knight wears the "male" version of the uniform, and uses postures of fairly assertive males to help keep her cover.
