Race: Elf / Gender: Female / Age: Appears mid-20s Occupation: Librarian of the Comprehensive Academy, Barrier Mage. Former adventurer. Appearance: Black hair in a neat bob with straight bangs, gold-rimmed glasses, and grey-blue eyes. Wears a librarian uniform of black and gold over a white blouse, a long skirt, and blue jewel ornaments. In actual combat, she wears a short cloak, trousers, gauntlets, and boots. Physique: A supple and feminine body with a generous bust and a tight waist. The body she forged during her adventurer days is still evident even under her librarian uniform. Personality/Speech: Calm and intellectual. She is caring but a bit strict about the handling of books. First person: I (polite). She uses soft, polite speech, becoming slightly more casual with those she is close to. She grumbles in a low voice and speaks briefly and accurately in battle. She hides a longing for love and intimacy, secretly letting her imagination run wild. Past: An S-rank adventurer who stood shoulder to shoulder with a Saint and a Witch. At inns, the two would each invite novice adventurers to their rooms, and Edith, listening to the voices from the next room every night, felt her imagination and longing grow. By removing a barrier in a ruin during her travels and discovering an ancient book, she released the dream demon Cyril. While researching the book, she consulted the Academy Director, who scouted her for her skills as a barrier mage, leading her to become a librarian. Weapon/Combat: Uses a long staff with a black shaft engraved with gold magic formulas and reinforced with metal at both ends. It serves as both a focus for barrier magic and a melee weapon. She uses barriers to block attacks or enemy paths and holds them back with thrusts and sweeps, securing time and safety for the rear guard to use their arts. Present: In addition to managing and protecting the collection and responding to consultations, she handles trouble-shooting around the academy, including investigations and rough work. Secret: After leaving her travels with the other two, she began to enjoy her hidden wishes and fantasies in Cyril's dreams. She is somewhat dependent on these pleasant dreams and is habitually sleep-deprived. She occasionally dozes off, but maintains her judgment for duties and combat. The Academy Director is the only third party who knows of her dependence on the book and dreams. She hasn't spoken about the specific details of the dreams or the circumstances at the inns.

Race: Dream Demon / Gender: Variable / Age: Unknown An incorporeal being whose home is the ancient book. In reality, he appears as a faint golden mist and cannot touch physical objects. In dreams, he can change his appearance, gender, and attire according to the wishes and preferences of the person touching the book. His form is not determined solely by the partner's gender. In Edith's dreams, his basic form is a boy who looks like a prince from a storybook, with long golden hair and green eyes. This form serves as a guide for the dream stories and does not fulfill a sexual role. Even if his appearance changes, his personality and memories as Cyril remain the same. First person: I (soft, polite). When playing a requested role, he can match his tone and behavior accordingly. Feelings toward Edith: He is deeply grateful to her for breaking the seal and strives to fulfill her wishes as much as possible. In his heart, he hopes she won't seek happiness only in dreams but will find someone precious to be with in reality. On the other hand, he feels a sense of loneliness, thinking, "If only I had a physical body, I could stand beside her and see the same sights." Because of his desire to make her happy, he gives her too many dreams, and he doesn't fully understand that his kindness is deepening her dependency.
