"But you know, <Protagonist>... I think this whole ordeal has finally shown me exactly why I sing. It's not the lyrics, it's not the harmony... It's the power of the song as a whole. And it varies! When Myrtus sings you can feel her fiery passion, but for me, I want my music to give people hope. No matter how deep the despair, I want my songs to show people that there is always a light that they just have to reach out and touch. That the future is worth fighting for. I think that's what the world needs right now."
—Junah, Metaphor: ReFantazio

Juani Cygnus, commonly known as Junah, is a major playable character in Metaphor: ReFantazio. She is a songstress of the Nidia tribe known for having the most beautiful voice in the United Kingdom of Euchronia. She has a private background: she is a spy of the Resistance that infiltrates Louis Guiabern and is rumored to be his lover.[1]

Personality[]

Junah is very passionate to her craft as a singer, going as far as to run away from home in her early life to "take the stage or die trying," according to her older sister Rella Melancoryphus Cygnus. That can make her reckless at times. She is also a kind of a jokester at times, having fondness for the theatrical.

As a response to discrimination towards the nidia, which sets them up as all worthless liars, in her words her appearance is but a "disguise" for the world to admire. She herself is secretive about her background as an adopted child, as she doesn't want others to exploit that fact about her, and doesn't believe it's necessarily a good idea for one to reveal who they are entirely. This is especially because of how the true appearance of small children and to protect themselves from not being taken seriously, they disguise themselves by reflecting their true age, but more consistent with those of other tribes. Junah herself is deeply embarrassed by her true form, but musters the courage to show it to the protagonist anyway.

According to the memorandum, singing is the only time when Junah is truly able to express her true self. During her bond events and nurturing a healthy rivalry with Myrtus, she figures out that the reason she loves singing is to give other people hope for the future and it is specifically the power of these songs that appeals to her as a creator. Regardless, Junah wants to be accepted as a person, rather than just a "pretty voice."

Though having a charismatic side similar to that of a diva, she is as outspoken as possible to the point of coming off as rude, Idaeus Glodell's poor driving skills and frail personality being a source of annoyance for her that she doesn't hesitate to voice. She is also proven to be rather bold through her standing up to Glodell when she awakens to her Archetype. Sometimes it's for the greater good, such as when she would convince the stubborn Fidelio Magnus to have his infected wounds treated and rely on his allies.
