Confiscating Rufin's diary, Leveva blackmailed him into releasing her grandfather and backing off on his attempts to suppress the spread of Sharlayan Astrology. As they confronted him in the abandoned streets in the Dravanian Hinterlands, they bested him in battle even as he tried to manipulate time itself. Jannequinard did not want to give up yet, as they could still have a chance by tricking Sevestre into thinking they still had incriminating information. With her family being threatened, and Sevestre being an advanced astrologian without peer, she was about ready to give in and go quietly. Leveva had gleaned from her father's diary that Sevestre was behind Rufin's murder, having later used it justify the Sharlayan exodus in the wake of the Garlean invasion. He was later met in the abandoned village of Hemlock, where he revealed he had her grandfather detained and threatened to have her mother taken hostage. Leveva reflected on Sharlayan's growing isolationism in the past two centuries, and suspected she knew who the man that hired Celie was: Sevestre of the Bibliothecs. He gave his diary to her.Īfter assisting the chocobo hunters of Tailfeather, they slay the mercenary Celie, who had persistently tried to bring her back to Sharlayan on charges of treason. Jannequinard confided that he knew her father Rufin, who had inspired him to try to share Sharlayan Astrology within the Holy See before he was slain. She nonetheless turned this to her advantage by applying a direct demonstration of astrologian healing magicks on wounded knights and hunters. Her attempts to share her teachings within the Holy See of Ishgard were confounded by similarly close-minded clergy of the Vault, who tried to deflect her attempts to hold a symposium by posting them in outlying settlements. These came to a head at the Steel Vigil, where a Sharlayan thaumaturge attempted to have her extradited via airship. It soon became apparent that agents of Old Sharlayan were attempting to retrieve Leveva before she could spread her teachings against Sharlayan's isolationist policies. These attempts were marred by persistent attacks by various bandits and pirates, most led by a tattooed Elezen arcanist named Celie.

Leveva later took the Warrior of Light to open the gates of the heavens (due to Jannequinard shirking his responsibility), explaining much about Eorzea's constellations. His granddaughter stated this event was foretold in the stars, and she would assist the Warrior of Light to learn to use the crystal. Upon seeing the Warrior of Light, Professor Mace tossed his soul crystal to the adventurer. The journey was far from uneventful, as her party was forced to detour through the South Shroud where the Warrior of Light and Jannequinard's retainer, Quimperain, met her party waylaid by bandits. Leveva arrived in Eorzea accompanying her grandfather, Professor Mace, whom Sharlayan's Forum had permitted to visit the realm. Years later, under his tutelage, she departed to Ishgard after learning they would accept an envoy of Sharlayan astrology. She was taken in by her grandfather Mace, a renowned professor of astromancy. Leveva's parents both died early in her life-her mother during childbirth, and her father a few years after.
