Shikibu

Reason

Harmonizer

Shikibu was a RIDER in the previous WAR OF INTEGRATION. During a pivotal battle against the HYSTERIAS, she and her team fought tooth and nail, but they were almost wiped out. Shikibu was cast into the boundary between the Sea of Unconsciousness and reality, where she remained trapped for centuries.

But when the Fusion War started, my disturbance in the Sea of Unconsciousness gave her the chance to return to the real world. Through her research, Shikibu discovered that all her teammates had died in that battle. Now, she's determined to go back, change the outcome, and save them.

"Today's moon, we cannot see,
Yet once it shone for those before me."
