- Glaiza de Castro as Sang'gre Pirena, the keeper of the gem of fire. As the eldest of the four sisters, she is the wisest and the ambitious one. She has always prepared herself to one day become Queen of Lireo but she gets consumed by hatred, especially towards her sister Amihan.
- Gabbi Garcia as Sang'gre Alena, the keeper of the water gem. Alena is blessed with a beautiful voice that can paralyze or kill an enemy.
