## Synopsis

In the distance, not far from Fairy Castle, there is a magic kingdom called Colorful Castle. It is a place full of color, peace, and joy. On the edge of Colorful Castle, there is an island that is home to the Black Lord, who had woken from his sleep. The Black Lord, to make his land stronger, stole the magic color energy from Colorful Castle. The princess, who possessed great Color Magic, found herself defenseless as she was cursed and turned into an elf.
