## Story

### Elaine

Elaine, Guardian of Sagittarius, is the ruler of Elves, the wise beings who share an ancient relationship with mysterious spirits. Bold she was, and yet quite shrewd. Her attitude towards her responsibility was one of the reasons of her peoples' admire. In addition to her queenly nature, she also had an extraordinary talent of memorizing. A combination of the splendid fist and her sensitivity allowed her to maintain any recollection with others. the grasp she showed as she handled diverse jeopardies, and her kind personality made the lady fair to look upon with reverence among the Elves from her realm.

Beside regarding her obligation as a queen, primarily her nature itself arouses a strong urge to her to protect others around her. Due to this characteristic, she always checks whether people around her took proper meals, and brings first-aid medicines and vitamins with her.

Her ability as a Guardian is a 'Protection'. 'Protection Barrier' summoned by her ability 'Protection', allows her to ward off diverse kind of assaults and threatening forces. Depending on its usage, 'Protection Barrier' also may heal other's illness.

Her weapon, Spirit magical bow, is a technological integration of the highly advanced civilization of Elves. The bow, as a protecting arm of Sagittarius and a great treasure of Elves, Servers its duty mainly by letting Elaine able to fire her ability of 'Protection' into a form of an arrow. While an application of Astro Alchemy at the level of design allows it to implement multiple-fires of arrows, Spiritual Technology, enables flexible management to diverse circumstances during swift movements by exceeding the law of physics and improving accuracy.

Wind Leaf, an Artifact used by the Guardian of Sagittarius for generations, enables its user to move swiftly to evade danger by controlling an air current while the Artifact itself surround around its user. Guardian of Sagittarius, leading an army of Elves, put an end to the Astral War in the past with other Guardians who willed a peace. After the war, with the guardian of Capricorn, the Guardian of Sagittarius proceeded research of Astro Alchemy and Spirit Technology, which led to a remarkable advancement of Elves civilization. The research also served as a basic foundation for the development of Interstellar Transporter in the future.

### Elf

Elaine, the young queen of Elves glided merrily yet gently along the breeze through giant leaves of deep forest.

As she flew, she peppily have regards to people passing by as always.

"Hi~! Lovely morning it is!"

She sounded more excited than usual due to an event she was expecting,

"A S-P-E-C-I-A-L lecture day! Such a long time since last time I met my cute students~"

Soon after she arrived at the academy, after a warm welcome from students and some pleasant chatting with them, she began her lecture. The lecture's topic was about the origin of Elves and the Astral War.

At the Vast Plain, where only immense forest existed, one day found a gathering of natural energy which soon gained a characteristic. It was a birth of Spirits. Soon afterward, some of the Spirits who longed for deeper communion with nature gained a physical form. It was the great ancestors of Elves. Along with their manner toward nature, Elves willed for pacific living even during the Astral War. However, since the war did not just manage to face an end, Elves changed their stance and joined the war with other Guardians who longed for peace. Elves' participation played as a salient role to an endgame.

"...That was the end of the Astral War, and after the war, we Elves made a big growth by getting a Technology using both Spirit Technology and Astro Alchemy with help from Lynn, Guardian of Capricorn and also a great scientist, and became a civilization of combination of nature and science like today~"

As she finished her lecture, she found few students looking tired., however, she grinned as she could know mpost of the other students were interested in her lecture by seeing their brightly glowing eyes.

"Was the lecture Fun? As our ancestors war so great, I wish all of you guys become a warm-hearted yet strong Elf like them! See you next time~"

"Yes you majesty!!"

After she left the academy, she patrolled over the city to check places where her bless of 'Protection' became weaker. As she found some places, weakened places were again filled with her beautiful voice as she gave a 'Blessing of the Spirits' by her 'Pray of songs'.

Soon after the patrol, she headed to the Temple of Sagittarius where the meeting with Elves Elders were held. The main topic of the meeting was about the 'Protection' becoming less sustainable than the past due to the loss of power of nature over time. Elaine suggested expanding the forest for Spirit's sufficient repose. Some raised concern at first, but soon her idea was accepted.

After the meeting Elaine took a deep breath and started to burst out,

"Elder Drang! About your problem with your digestive thing. Are you taking pills and nutrition well? Every day? On time?"

"Elder Roel! You really should work out! I see you getting hurt by a bit these days, that's all about working out!"

"…"

"…"

"…"

Alas. In some meaning, the 'real' meeting has finally begun.

Surely every Elf love Elaine the sweetheart, however at this moment, maybe some would show some doubt. Rumor has it that one Elder who was sick before got healthy and gained great evading skill by trying to avoid her nag. Elders showed their best attitude to not let Elaine down at first. However, as the nagging seemed to get longer, they hastily left the Temple.

With a sigh, she cheered herself up and cleaned the Temple using her Artifact, Wind leaf. After she finished cleaning she headed to her home.
