Spoiler for Selvaria:
Selvaria had always been proud that she was a Valkyria. Although she was devoted to a man who wouldn't bother to take a second glance at her had she been an ordinary woman, she accepted that, for she knew that her people had a heritage she could be proud of.
That pride slowly cracked as she spent time with the Bathory Rats. Initially, she kept everyone at arms' length, not to mention the veiled insults reserved for the Darcsens once she knew who they were. But, Louise's actions gradually warmed her heart, as the squad roped her in for their activities. She began to climb down from the high pedestal she had been on for so long. It was fortunate, for her clashes with the Gallian Valkyria revealed that mighty as her powers were, there was someone better than her.
After the Gallian war, Selvaria appreciated Louise's heart-to-heart talk with her. But, she thought that she could rough it out herself. Slowly, events would prove her wrong. The battle at Gregor's mine was another blow to her confidence; the secrets to the Valkyrur's powers were secrets no more. However, it was Princess Cordelia's words shook her to the core. The fact that she first removed her hat before exposing the Valkyrur allowed her counter-accusation. But, it soon became clear that she was clutching at straws. Her people had framed the Darcsens for a crime which they had committed, and they pulled it off simply because of the power they possessed. She had never regretted the fact that she was a Valkyria, until now.
But, Alicia's gestures made her realise that she can have another identity. She decided to disappear from the life of the one man whom she loved. She didn't want her taint to affect him. Already, Welkins and Louise had hatched a plan to expose this grand lie. With Irene's help, information about the coverup was left at the doorsteps of many who worked in the media. Soon, the newspapers and radio airwaves were filled with nothing but this. There was an uproar.
And what of Selvaria? With a hair dye and binding her chest (to reduce the size, not eliminate it totally), she became "Grace", and joined the Rats to be trained as a trooper. She swore to herself that she would work her way up the ranks to be by Max's side.
