==General information==
===Physical appearance===
===Personality===
Even though his soul inhabits an artifact that takes on a childlike appearance, Selva possesses an infinitum of knowledge and wisdom nevertheless, one that has been tempered ever since his participation in the long-terminated holy war of Fa'Diel.

Much like his fellow Wisdom brethren, Selva's insight into the workings of Fa'Diel and its inhabitants is one that is unrivaled; his interactions with Matilda in the Dreamweaving Room reveal his intimate understanding of the underlying mechanisms of how the world of Fa'Diel is shaped, alongside the key figures that are responsible for catalysing the momentous change that is to come.

In spite of the hallowed position that he is principally defined by, Selva has displayed a tendency to enjoy engaging in a spot bit of fun every now and then; his actions in Lucemia during Heaven's Gate prove this, as he blithely attempts to alter the certain doom that awaits Irwin by shrewdly trying to convince the protagonist to give up halting the former's apocalyptic plot.

-====[[In Search of Faeries]]====
-[[Matilda]] is visited by Selva, a Wisdom and spirit of the Four Winds. He tells her he used to visit her when she was but an infant. The priestess replies he must know about how [[Irwin]] stole her elemental powers. He does, and adds that when an era comes to an end, anything can happen. Matilda asks him is he can foresee the future, but the wind spirit answers that the future is decided for those who will walk its path. He then proceeds to list all the Wisdoms of [[Fa'Diel]] and declares she's going to be the seventh, as she is the one who will end an era. Matilda replies she feel terribly guilty of causing chaos by her selfish love for Irwin and believes she deserves to be punished. Selva comforts her saying she's allowed anyone she wants and that she must learn to open her heart.
-====[[The Pursuit of Wisdoms]]====
-[[Bud]] wants to meet each of the [[Seven Wisdoms]] of [[Fa'Diel]] so he can become a great wizard. The apprentice mage meets Selva at the [[Gato Grottoes]], where he tells Bud that children are always on the fringes of history's tumult, but they have plenty of ideason how to make up for the adults' mistakes. He declares that the budding mage's childhood memories will serve him throughout his career as a sorcerer.
-====[[Heaven's Gate]]====
-Selva appears a few times on [[Lucemia]] during the ''Faeries's Arc'''s climax. He tells the protagonist and their ally Irwin is only toying with them and ask them if they still wish to proceed. He's also briefly shown on screen after the deceased Matilda is abandoned by Irwin in the Underworld.
