Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have gone beyond the characters that have been introduced so far via Famitsu and other sources, and today they introduced Leah, the high priestess of the Church of Seiros.
Rhea (CV: Kikuko Inoue)
The high priestess of the Holy Church of Seiros. She has held this position since the days that Jeralt was in the Knights of Seiros.
She holds a high opinion of the protagonist’s talent and potential, and thus invites them to teach at the Officer’s Academy.
She is kind and gentle to others like a loving mother, but she also has a strict side where she will mercilessly pass down judgment on those who oppose the Church.
Check out a video of Byleth speaking with her below:

“Please support the students so that they don’t need to worry about needless things.”
> Of course.
> I will do everything I can.
“That’s good, I have great expectations of you after all.”
As an additional fact from the video, we can also see that Byleth is likely voiceless apart from in battle or some key lines, similar to other ‘blank slate’ protagonists.
Check out the previous character introductions with Sothis, Edelgard, Dimitri, Claude, and Jeralt.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses releases for Nintendo Switch on July 26, 2019. You can learn more about the protagonist here, the story and many other characters here, information on its battle and game systems here.
