History
About a century ago, a nun called Carmel saved several Giants who were part of the Giant Warrior Pirates from execution by the Marines, claiming that the heavens wanted peace between the races, and that killing the prisoners would start a war with Elbaf. She then offered to take responsibility for them, and founded Sheep's House — a home for all and any lost child, regardless of race, on Elbaf as a bridge of friendship. Those act earned her the title of "Holy Mother", and her tale spread throughout the world.

37 years later, Charlotte Linlin's parents left her at the age of five years old on Elbaf after she was exiled for her uncontrollable destructive actions, and hoped that the "Holy Mother" would take her in. When Linlin arrived to Sheep's House, she was greeted by Mother Carmel, and was welcomed into the house. During Linlin stay, however, her abnormal strength and naivety put her at the center of several incidents that causes much harm to those around her, which Carmel forgave her for and asked others to forgive as well, due to her kind intentions.

10 months later, Linlin and her friend were playing in Warland Village, and she learned about the Winter Solstice. She was very excited about eating Semla, but the pre-festival fast took its toll, and while she managed to hold half of it thanks to Carmel encouragement, on the seventh day she began to rampage, demanding Semla. Gerth, a young villager and Linlin friend, ran to Sheep's House to inform Carmel of the occurrences, but the arrived to late as Carmel, Gerth and the children of Sheep's House witnessed the damage caused by her, and Jorl preparing to attack her despite Carmel plea.
