Background
Astra grew up in the quiet city of St. Luxerne, a civilized and gentle community which lay far from any frontlines amid foothills and green valleys. They're known all over the world for their cheese and of course their university with its own observatory up in the mountains.
But the Empire's belligerence warps everything it touches, even here in this peaceful little place.
The departments for astrology, magic, and arcanitech were all repurposed for R&D to research a theoretical weapon called the Star Engine, a magical weapon which would utilize the principles of light and darkness. When activated, it would suck up all nearby ether energies like a black hole, stripping everything nearby of magical protection and mind points to defend itself. Immediately after, the engine would explode, a newborn sun with a brief existence. In essence, it's a massive bomb that could overwhelm any target.
The staff did their calculations and preliminary work. The closer they got to success, the more they realized this would be a power that nobody could contain. The slightest mistake in its construction could cause a detonation that would erase everything for a mile around. The project had to be stopped.
The staff took their concerns to General Faust, who was in charge of the operation. He dismissed their concerns. The head of the project, Doctor Caelum, protested again but was executed as an example for the others.
By a twist of fortune, the Empire was thrown into chaos. The team destroyed their lab and escaped, setting back the research by decades.
That is, if Doctor Caelum is indeed dead as they were told. But maybe he's was imprisoned and brought elsewhere, where the sinister general can use him to restart the dreadful Star Engine research...
As for Astra, she was a mere research assistant to Doctor Caelum at the time. Despite being forced to, she feels guilty over her involvement with the project. She also understands that the Empire will always keep searching for new, terrible weapons. She has to stop them.
