Main characters:

Maven Istravel is a young orphan elf girl raised among humans. She is cheerful quick, naïve, and tends to be sensitive. She cries when she wants to cry, laughs when she wants to laugh, and even shows amazing bravery when the situation calls for it.

Reyl Adelant is a teen who is becoming an adult, forged by his struggle as an independent traveling merchant. Armed with the sword he inherited from his father, he looks at the world coldly, without much willingness to interact with people even though he possesses the appropriate charisma and attractiveness for it.

Sophia Wellss is comfortable with a handsome lover and a capable magic instructor. The witch girl chooses to spend most of her time learning from her teacher, Nepathya Lei rather than building a firmer relationship with Reyl.

Declan Pervius doesn’t mind being always considered a brother by Maven when they are once raised together in Saint Ambrosius Monastery. However, after they part ways for years and meet again, Declan begins to be attracted to Maven, his soul sister.
