This post is of page 134-135, which features concept artwork of Titania with some commentary. The commentary is translated both on the page and here on this post.
You can find every translation I’ve done on this book so far on the compilation post here!
As you can imagine, the process of doing all this (scanning, editing, translating, etc) takes a lot of time, and I am unemployed…so if you like what I did, then…

Enjoy!
Translated text:
[15] The beautiful vice-commander of the Greil Mercenaries: Titania. In the early version of the game, she was going to wear a helmet. Her armor, decorated with splendorous ornaments, are the traces of when she served as a Royal Knight of Crimea. [16] Some busts of Titania. She is a pretty looking “big sister” sort we put in place of the so-called “Jagen position” of these games, which was and still is a pretty big shocker. [17] Some rough sketches that show Titania looking more relaxed with her hair untied. She would probably spend her free time with Mist with this plain look on her days off. [18] A full body sketch closer to her final design. There are a lot of enemy units who wield lances in this game. She probably helped plenty of players in the early-game by being an axe-wielder. [19] A bit of a sterner looking Titania from the earlier drafts. Her armor had a much more plain feeling to it. Her large braid is still just as stylish.
Notes:
Japanese text (original):
１５グレイル傭兵団の麗しき副長、チィアマト。本編では着用することのなかったヘルムを抱えている。クリミア王宮騎士団に所属していた名残か、甲胄には華麗な装飾が施ざれている。１６テイアマットのバストアップ。いわゆる「ジェイガンポジション」にシリーズで初めて綺麗なお姉さんが据えられた、その衝撃はいまだに大き。１７解いた髪と穏やかな表情が寛いだ風のラフ画。休日には、こんなくだけた様子でミストと過ごしていたのかも。１８決定稿に近い全身画。槍持ちの敵ユニットの多い本作。特に序盤は彼女の斧の腕前に助けられたプレイヤーも多いのではないだろうか。１９少しきつめの印象を受けるテイアマトの初期稿。鎧の質感が簡素。大きな三つ編みはそのままいかされた模様。
