Background / History
March 7th is a member of the Astral Express crew who arrives on Jarilo-VI alongside Dan Heng and Stelle to investigate and resolve the planet’s Stellaron crisis. Before reaching Belobog, she and her companions rescue Sampo on the snow plains; he later repays the favor by arranging for Seele to guide them toward the Underworld. 5
She was discovered frozen within a rare cosmic substance called Six-Phase Ice and was named after the date on which she was freed. Her memories remain missing. 11 20
In the Suburban Snowfield, March meets Jing Yan while documenting the surroundings with her camera. She readily identifies herself and her companions as outsiders, then reacts with surprise when Jing Yan correctly deduces that they have come because of the Stellaron. 9
After the group is confronted by Gepard and the Silvermane Guards, March nervously denies having seen Sampo. She witnesses Jing Yan incapacitate the guards with his mysterious power, but concludes that he is not a bad person despite his unusual behavior. 10 11
March travels with Jing Yan and Stelle through the Underworld, including the Robot Settlement and Great Mine. She assists Jing Yan against Svarog, helps keep Clara out of danger during the battle, and later joins the push toward Everwinter Hill. 20 23 25
During the final confrontation with Cocolia, March remains in contact with Himeko aboard the Astral Express. Himeko temporarily restrains the Engine of Creation from orbit. 35
Following the resolution of the Stellaron crisis, March checks that Jing Yan has not been harmed after he integrates the Stellaron into his body. She later participates in Belobog’s celebration and prepares to continue traveling with him as a fellow Astral Express passenger. 41 43

Personality
March is outgoing, playful, and highly curious. She photographs scenery even when the group is approaching a battlefield, though she admits that this habit partly helps her cope with nervousness. 9 34
She can be impulsive and suspicious in equal measure. When Jing Yan’s intentions are unclear, she openly worries that he might be a criminal harvesting organs, only to become excited at the prospect of staying in Belobog’s best hotel once he explains the arrangement. 12
Her straightforward view of Preservation is simply “to protect others.” She struggles to explain the philosophy further, humorously associating it with her fondness for iced fruit juice. 20
March values companionship and expresses that having someone who cares about you can make a place feel like home. She finds the Astral Express crew busy or difficult to talk to at times, especially Dan Heng. 21
