## Personality

Alas usually has a very positive attitude towards other people. Like regular children, she is sensitive to other people's emotions and does not like fighting with adults. She tends to get excited about things she hasn't seen before. Despite being a fragment of Yesod, she is no different from a toddler. Like toddlers, she gets scared easily, resulting in crying. She sees the people around her as her family (calling Emi her mamma, Maou her papa, and Chiho and Suzuno her big sisters). She is very attached to Maou and Emi (often crying or complaining when they aren't in the room).

## Appearance

Alas is an approximately two-year-old girl with long, silver-colored hair, purple strands in the front, and purple eyes. She wears various kinds of dresses. However, she is most often seen wearing a yellow, sleeveless dress, which reaches just below her knees, with matching shoes. She has also worn hair accessories, like clips, bows, or a straw hat, to protect her from the sun.

## History

Approximately 300 years ago, Lailah, Emilia's mother, met and rescued a young Satan from the brink of death upon the destruction of his tribe by a random rogue demon. She oversaw his recovery to total health, sharing much knowledge with him. Before she left, she gave him a purple crescent-shaped crystal. Over the next hundreds of years, Satan rose as the Demon Lord recruited other demons into his army and gradually united the Demon race into one empire using the knowledge Lailah imparted to him. He planted the crystal in a garden within his castle, growing into a tree. All that time, Satan had no idea it was a Yesod fragment.

### Non-Canon

From the moment she was left in Alexander's care, Alas=Ramus exhibited an instantaneous bond with him, one that was just as intense as the one she had shared with Emi and Maou. The connection was almost preternatural, an immediate recognition that resonated deep within their souls. It was as if she could sense the potential in Alexander, the latent power that rested in the depths of his being, and was drawn to it like a moth to a flame.

In the absence of her 'papa' and 'mama', Alexander became her anchor. He was there when she woke up from nightmares, comforted her when she missed her parents, and listened to her endless barrage of questions with admirable patience. His stoic and protective demeanor acted as a reassuring presence in her life, alleviating the sting of Emi and Maou's absence.

One day, in an act that shocked everyone, Alas=Ramus merged with Emi's celestial sword. It was a spontaneous act, born out of her desire to protect Alexander from an unexpected threat. Emi's sword, which had been left behind for her protection, pulsed with a divine radiance and, in a breathtaking display of celestial magic, Alas=Ramus melded with it, her small form disappearing into the blade. The sword, previously a beautiful silver, was now suffused with a soft, radiant glow, as if holding the very essence of a star within it.

This merger brought forth an unforeseen transformation in Alas=Ramus. She was no longer just a 'yesod' fragment or the adopted daughter of a hero and a demon king. She had become a sentient weapon, a 'sword' in the most extraordinary sense of the word. This phenomenon did not diminish her consciousness or her personality. She was still Alas=Ramus, innocent and curious, but with a newfound purpose. She could communicate with Alexander, her voice echoing in his mind, offering guidance, and sometimes even chiding him for his reckless actions.

Even more astounding was the realization that her merger with the sword had granted her the ability to merge with other weapons. Any weapon Alexander wielded could potentially become an extension of Alas=Ramus, imbuing it with a fragment of her celestial power. This new ability turned the tide in many battles, Alexander’s attacks now carrying the force of Alas=Ramus's celestial power. Her essence acted not only as a boost to the weapons but also a protector to Alexander, her power acting instinctively to shield him.

Their bond deepened with each passing day. They functioned as two halves of a whole, their spirits intricately linked. Alas=Ramus, although still a child, understood the gravity of the situation. She became Alexander's sword, his shield, his protector – a role she embraced wholeheartedly. Her power was not just a tool for Alexander to use but a part of him, as integral as his courage and determination.

In this unique relationship, Alexander found not only a powerful ally but also a surrogate daughter who relied on him. As for Alas=Ramus, in Alexander, she discovered a new 'papa', someone who cherished and protected her just as fervently as Maou and Emi did. This unique bond, forged in the crucible of destiny, promised to be an influential force in the battles to come.

The journey was long, and the road fraught with dangers. But with Alas=Ramus at his side, or rather, in his hands, Alexander faced each challenge with renewed vigor. They were a testament to the saying that family isn't always blood. It's the people in your life who want you in theirs – the ones who accept you for who you are. And for Alexander and Alas=Ramus, they were indeed, a family.

Their story was not one of a girl and her caretaker, but of a warrior and his sword. It was a tale that transcended the ordinary, spiraling into the realm of the extraordinary. An unusual family, perhaps, but a family nonetheless. A family that, despite the odds, found each other amidst the chaos and learned that even in a world teeming with celestial power and demonic threats, love and bonds could be the most potent magic of all.

### Capabilities

As their bond deepened and their interactions grew more nuanced, Alas=Ramus exhibited another startling ability: she could freely transform between her human form and her weapon form. This transformation was not just a simple shift in shape, but a metamorphosis of her very essence. It allowed her to be both by Alex's side and in his hands simultaneously, a guardian and a companion in equal measures.

In her human form, she maintained her childlike innocence and curiosity, providing emotional support to Alex and the rest of Orion's Order. Her cheerfulness and inherent positivity were infectious, often acting as the much-needed levity amidst the high stakes they were constantly dealing with. In this form, Alas=Ramus also retained her ability to communicate telepathically with Alex. Her insights, though seen through the eyes of a child, often provided fresh perspectives on their situations.

When transformed into her weapon form, she became a potent tool for combat. Each weapon she melded with was imbued with her celestial power, making them formidable against their foes. This transformative ability made her versatile on the battlefield, capable of adapting to any weapon that Alexander wielded.

This unique dynamic was invaluable to Orion's Order. The members found themselves in awe of Alas=Ramus' abilities, and her presence boosted their morale. Her dual nature, of being both a companion and a weapon, meant that she could fill whatever role was needed in the moment. One minute she could be a comforting presence, brightening the mood with her childlike wonder, and the next, she could be a beacon of power on the battlefield, her celestial energy pulsating through their weapons.

Alas=Ramus’ transformative abilities were more than just an impressive feat of celestial power. They were symbolic of the dual roles she played within Orion's Order and in Alex's life. As a sword, she was a protector, her power lending strength to their cause. As a child, she was a reminder of what they were fighting for, her innocence and joy serving as a beacon of hope in their often grim reality.

Through her unique abilities and her unwavering devotion, Alas=Ramus proved to be an irreplaceable part of both Alex's life and Orion's Order. With her by their side, they found themselves ready to face whatever trials the future might throw at them. In every sense of the word, Alas=Ramus had truly become their sword, their shield, and their beacon of hope.
