She is now 12. She graduated from her academy. Killing her father counted as a passing grade.. For the past two years she been staying at her new friend house, name Shade. In Shades home, he keeps his dead parents sitting by the dinner table across from each other. After a while, Shade discovered that Lucia wasn't able to smell a dead body and thought to bring it up to start a conversation. Lucia was in her own mind. She was still bothered about what happen to her mother. Now finishing her years in school she can think on what happen.. She began explaining to Shade about her being a spirit. She believes she had gifts that has yet to unlocked.. Later that month, the Shogun(leader of Pathway) assign Lucia a task involving collecting the Tenzaria weapon that is held by the Yomozai Family.

Tenzaria weapons are from a acient book called Tenzaria World. Tenzaria World is a book with stories of heroic humans using godly weapons to kill the powerful deities that once used the tenzaria weapons to enslave humanity.. Pathway was born for the exact purpose of protecting these Tenzaria weapons against the public eye. Each weapon capable of doing unique things that enchants the human soul that weilds the weapon when the right conditions are made. Only people who went into the water of Tenzaria prison can hold the weapons. Lucia's father broke the rules, sneaking into the Tenzaria Prison resulting in him and his entire family to serve under Pathway. Once one person swims in the Tenzaria waters. Not only that person but the entire bloodline gets that power. The leader of Pathway request Lucia, now an professional assasin, To get the strongest tenzaria weapon and in exchange, must be sisters with the Yomozai Family. Yomozai and leader of Pathway, Astsin Family were once a collaborative group who worked together to protect the Tenzaria weapons, but a deal went wrong and almost cost the Yomozai family life. They had to move away from the Astsin family, losing their trust. Pathway Leader, Yami Shogun, still offered them to take the strongest Tenzaria weapon with them incase the government one day take it from him.. Due to rumors of the Yomazai Family being targeted, he decided to send Lucia, his strongest Assasin to do this task. Giving her one week. Thus, her travel begins.

Lucia carried a large case with her. It had her diseased mother inside. She wants to use this opportunity to take her mother to a location that has a field of Damask roses. She had Shade tagged along with her, knowing he would not be left alone dealing with bullies who might come bother him when she's away.

When she came home after killing her father few years back, she had stayed at the house for a few days, spending her whole graduation vacation in the room her mother stayed in. Her uncle and her new born baby brother had left, nowhere to be seen. She never got to do anything her mother wanted.. She was very sad. The room began to have a smell of rotten flesh but the smell didn't bother Lucia. The entire village was beginning to smell the rotten flesh in the house.. Her mother would soon decompose. The Shogun came by and was willing to give her a special coffin to prevent her mother from turning or decomposing. The coffin was specially made by the government, to keep people from turning to continue their investigation on their suspect. The Shogun originally came to Lucia home to request her to prepare for a future mission involving requiring something from a land far from here. If she accept, he happily hand her the coffin. It had special magic made by the Ice Masters, keeping temperature 40f to keep the body fresh. Before Lucia was forced to leave the house as it would soon be burned down to prevent bacteria from spreading, she grabbed her mothers dairy. In the dairy, she remembered she had read a page involving her trying to give herself a heart by using Rosa damascena as ingredients. After some time of understanding the Rosa Damascus, she began to find it more interesting. Lucia saw on her trip flowers that matches the ones in the photo. She plans to visit the town nearby to see if they are what her mother described.

One day passed, Lucia and Shade arrived at the Town called Flower Day. A town focus on growing flowers. Lucia had noticed a lot of military guards walking around town. To prevent suspension she did her best to stay hidden. She confronted a shop owner and ask about the the image in the dairy. The shop owner smiled as he adored the art style before saying those were Rosa damascena flowers. Symbols of Beauty and Love. Lucia thanked the kind man before heading into the direction of the Damascena field he guided her to. Before she left the town, she spotted a few kids who were chained and cuffed by two guards. She suddenly had this feeling of regret if she left without doing something. She reacted quick, both her and Shade knocked out the guards and sprint away along with the children.
The children had names. Larah, John, and Koa. Each one introduced themselves when they got out the village. They were able to flee without having any suspension. When they got to the field, Lucia began to search for an open spot to dig then place her mother under the dirt. She was surrounded by beautiful Damascena roses, and hopefully her mother would rest at ease. John asked Lucia why she wasted her time putting her mother in the dirt and not just burned her. Lucia walked away without responding. She refused to speak to someone young who has not yet develope a brain to understand the situation. Johln saw this as insulting him and began shouting.
