The Curia, an organization that defends people from fiends.
Aluche is an agent of said organization. One day, she receives an order from the Pope to escort a priestess.
This priestess' name is Liliana, Aluche's childhood friend.
Upon informing the Pope of their arrival at the Curia, Aluche discovers that Liliana has been chosen to be the "Bride of Time," the maiden destined to be sacrificed to the Moon Queen.
She's given the mission to deliver Liliana to the vile being, but is shocked and horrified.
"Why did it have to be Liliana? If I bring her to the Moon Queen, she's going to die...!"
Unsure of what to do, she tried to keep her personal feelings at bay in order to carry out her mission.
