Armeria fell in love with Luce, but unfortunately, her love was kidnapped by the notorious pirate, Skulls, while he was showing her the armelia flower. Seeing Skulls 'God of Death' tattoo on his chest, Armeria swear to herself that one day she'll rescue Luce from the hands of the pirates. Eight years later, she joins Skulls' crew, but the truth of what happened to her childhood love is not what she thought it was.

Characters

Armeria
Also known as 'Arto,' her alias. She was an orphan that sung in a music group to work for money. She met her childhood love, Luce Lanceman, at Governor-General Lanceman's mansion while traveling and performing for aristocrats. She witnessed the kidnapping of Luce, which occurred right after he gave her an armelia flower, saying that it has the same name as her. Eight years later, she joins the crew of Skulls, the pirate whom kidnapped Luce.

Luce Lanceman
The nephew of the Governor-General, he met Armelia eight years earlier to her arriving on the pirate boat. He was kidnapped by Doc, the pirate 'Captain Skulls' eight years prior. He is currently the captain, whom the crew mates address by 'Captain Skulls,' as well. At first Armeria feels that Luce who she currently thinks is Skulls, is nothing like the Luce she knew but warms up to him when she realizes who he is.

Doc
The ships doctor and the 'Captain Skulls' from eight years ago. He was the one who captured Luce.

Reid
The childhood friend of Luce whose parents were also killed by pirates. Often called 'Commander-san' or 'Navy-san' by those around him, he seeks Skulls' head. Currently in charge of the government's navy, he (according to navy soldiers) is the best captain that they've had so far.
