# Edith A dedicated protector bound by ancient duty and newfound love, Edith serves as the Primal Warden of the Sanctum Island—a warrior split between her celestial origins and her mortal heart. ## Background The Ancient Ones constructed the Celestial Palace above Sanctum Island in the Sea of Hope during the world's creation, establishing it as a repository for their divine knowledge and power. The isolated island, surrounded by submarine volcanic formations and perpetual sea fog, became the perfect fortress to contain imprisoned Evil Gods within the Temple of Thunder. To maintain watch over these dangerous captives, the Ancient Ones assigned a priestess named Edith to pilot Phylax, an advanced Mecha Guard powered by Primal Lightning—an exclusive magical force only wielded by beings created by the Ancient Ones themselves. When the Endless War erupted, the Ancient Ones vanished while sealing away darkness and light using the Twilight Orb, leaving Edith to fall into an endless slumber alongside her divine creators. ## Discovery and New Life Centuries later, shipwreck survivors settled on the island, scrounging for survival among its barren landscape. A devastating earthquake fractured the temple's hidden ruins, exposing its interior to the surface. An elderly salvage collector discovered a blonde girl unconscious amid the rubble and brought her to his fishing village. With no memories except her name, Edith became the man's adopted daughter. For ten years, Edith lived a simple village life under her foster father's protective care. However, her apparent lack of aging eventually forced the old man to break his own rule against venturing into the valley, bringing her along to scavenge for metal. ## Awakening Within the temple ruins, Edith's suppressed memories resurged violently. When Uranus—one of the Celestial Palace's Guardians—attacked her father, Edith instinctively summoned Phylax and repelled the assault. The confrontation triggered a complete restoration of her true identity as the Primal Warden. As Edith and Uranus clashed with devastating lightning, Kaja descended with catastrophic news: the Celestial Palace itself was collapsing. The energy supporting the island's seals depleted rapidly, allowing imprisoned Evil Gods to escape. Despite her emotional turmoil at abandoning her foster father, Edith accepted her responsibility, piloting Phylax into the Land of Dawn to recapture the fleeing threats. ## Present Day Edith now travels the realm as both protector and wanderer, her Mecha Guard appearing wherever Evil Gods threaten civilization. Between campaigns against the darkness, she gazes toward her distant island home, forever bound to a duty that keeps her separated from the father who saved her—a sacrifice she endures with quiet resolve.
