We haven't seen an event that involved Cilonia in more than an ancillary way in a hot minute.Haven't played this game in a spell. How are we doing in the Cliohna romance department?
I suspect we won't have anything tangible until the Rastdel aftermath or Game 2.
As to why this is the case - I'd guess it is a pacing issue.
Cilonia seems to be very popular and always gets asked about- but advancing her plot with Rowan too far would create for a suite of circumstances where it might not make sense why she wasn't using her vast knowledge of magic ect to help Rowan out.
I suspect it would be very easy for her to remove the necklaces or oppose the Twins herself. She is an ancient mage with life-times of experience. They are essential edgy half-demon teenagers.
If you pursue all of her different routes (dom / sub) you get a look at quite a significant amount of back-story relating to her motivations- which helps contextualize why she is helping the twins in the first place. If that were to evaporate because of a proper romance arc or her finding out Rowan could offer her a similar chance of achieving her end goals the plot would need to move forwards in a specific way- but I think it'd be too early in the plot for it to move in that direction.
A final though:
We have a pregnancy arc (Rowan X Alexia) narrative piece coming up in the January release - which could hypothetically involve Cilonia or any of the characters Rein writes honestly- but again it wouldn't advance the core Cilonia romance narrative.
