Background / History

Noble upbringing

Meadow is the daughter of Count Lantanite, whose holdings include three estates, a trading company, and three factories. Before becoming involved in Magic Gear's projects, she had little expected of her beyond attending St. Vivian Girls' School, painting salon sessions, and eventually marrying as arranged. She was already engaged to a member of the Namon family. 95 141

At school, Meadow served as Student Council President and was admired as “Lord Morningstar.” Her extensive training in art, gemstone appreciation, and painting later became unexpectedly useful in game-item design and crafting. 135

Player Club and Sweet Dream Candy

Meadow received an invitation to Sherry's Player Club gathering and became interested after learning that Leisiphia Roy was associated with Magic Gear. She tested Waltz of the Second Era, experiencing its Second Era setting as an elf girl. 95

She later began using Sweet Dream Candy, initially treating its dream-based Magic Puppet work as entertainment. Meadow persisted through a full week of training—longer than anyone she knew—and earned an S-level Mental Power rating. Rather than selecting the cute but weak Sprite Puppet, she deliberately chose a Giant Strength Magic Puppet for its practical mining capabilities. 135

Underwater Teleportation Array

Using strategy notes collected through her school connections, Meadow entered the Magic Puppet Battle simulation for the Underwater Teleportation Array Repair project. She recognized that Sweet Dream Candy's “game” labor corresponded to real Magic Puppet work, but continued because she had freely chosen to participate and wanted materials for her creations. 136 137

Her S-level puppet received more important assignments than the other operators. Meadow taught less-skilled operators how to balance their puppets, worked to clear polluted seawater, and pursued coral and other underwater materials. She became acquainted with Loach during this work. 137

When Count Lantanite and Royal Mage Miche intruded into the project, Meadow defended the other operators. She initially restrained herself against human-shaped opponents, but later released her puppet's electrical attack at full strength against the transformed mages. 138

Teleportation Port project

After realizing that her father's illness was partly a manipulation intended to rush her marriage, Meadow used his unconsciousness to establish herself as his proxy. She secured City Hall approval for the Teleportation Port, arranged negotiations with the Eastern Territory, and placed loyal servants throughout the Count's estate. 139 140

Meadow demanded that the Eastern Territory construct a large multi-racial square at the port within seven days. She understood that the deadline would attract public scrutiny, but deliberately used that attention to make the project impossible for her father to quietly stop. 142 143

The project succeeded despite ridicule from Xiesse's public and media. Meadow oversaw the opening of the Teleportation Square and Glass Castle, though she objected when Xiesse elites credited her alone while ignoring the Eastern Territory's technology and workers. 143 144

City of Academies and Sensenata

Meadow designed jewelry sold through Ralph Jewelry and used the proceeds to plan an independent TV station. Her proposed station would cover accessible topics such as fashion, education, and the respective work of humans and Magic Puppets. 145

She placed first in the City of Academies entrance examination across Xiesse and the entire Human Kingdom. Using the resulting public attention, Meadow left Xiesse with Sherry ahead of the term, seeking distance and protection from her arranged marriage into a Royal Mage Tower bloodline. 159 160

When Sherry received a dream-based plea for help from Sensenata, Meadow chose to act despite the danger and the official media blackout. She later joined Leisiphia at the Sensenata checkpoint, using her political standing to reinforce Leisiphia's authority and help break the blockade. 170 171

Personality

Meadow is observant, socially polished, and highly conscious of ulterior motives. She can maintain flawless noble etiquette while privately recognizing flattery, manipulation, or contempt. Her distrust of excessive praise comes from repeated experiences of being treated as a useful symbol rather than a person. 136 144

Although initially detached from affairs outside her immediate life, Meadow gradually becomes more willing to accept responsibility. She questions whether ignoring a crisis simply because it is inconvenient means abandoning her own rights as well as her duties. 170

She is also practical and quietly rebellious. Meadow uses the tools available to her—public image, official procedure, family authority, servants, game systems, and social connections—to delay her marriage and create a future independent of her father. 139 140 145
