Councillor Alina

Dame Alina (now Councillor Alina) was the former principal of Foxfire. She has porcelain skin, fragile features, and dark brown hair with caramel-colored highlights. She was chosen to replace Kenric after his death during Fintan's healing. She went to Alden and Della Vacker's wedding and tried to convince Alden to marry her instead, but she ended up getting rejected. She is a Beguiler.

Dame Alina started out as principal of Foxfire. But when Sophie Foster attempts to heal Fintan's mind in Eternalia by orders from the Council, that all changes. Fintan uses Sophie Foster and others' body heat to spark Everblaze, the white-hot, unstoppable fire. Councillor Kenric, was consumed in the fire, along with the melting, jewelled Eternalia, leaving a grieving council and nation. Oralie, Kenric's love interest, was left sobbing for the one she, as a Councillor, was forbidden to love because of the rule that Councillor's aren't allowed to fall in love or have children. Later, at Sophie's tribunal/punishment for reading the King Dimitar's mind, Dame Alina was made Councillor and Master Leto is made principal and is changed to Magnate Leto. Councillor Alina fits quite well into her new job, acting as if she had been a Councillor for several decades instead of only a few minutes. She is quick to show her opinion and be in charge and let everyone know it. In the beginning, she was Sophie's supporter, but near the end, she takes part in restricting Sophie's ability, causing an uprise in Sophie's world, but in the end, she plays a significant role in Sophie Foster's life and in The Keeper of the Lost Cities.She becomes very arrogant and power goes to her head after she was elected as a Councillor.
