Altair's former subordinate in the Sphirian Army, now serving as a military strategist in Erdeni. Born to a poor family in Sui, she helped out with the family business from a very young age. When she was sixteen, she entered the service of a local noble family to help with living expenses for her younger sister. A Sphirian officer who visited the noble family recognized Shura's potential as a strategist, adopted her, and brought her back to Sphiria. She wrote to her family often, and sent money, but, busy with her military duties, Shura's relationship with her family became rather distant. Polaris, an officer in the Erdeni Army, is her savior and dear friend. Zawra, Shura's equal in the army, seems to hold a special place in her heart.
