Elena doesn't want to work, so she decides to make a doll to work in her place.
She gathers many precious materials.
Combining what she's learned from books with her own alchemical practice,
After three failed attempts with simple materials,
she finally succeeds.
The girl she created looks at her own hands.
"You're the doll I made. Your name is Alice, and your job is to take care of me," Elena says happily.
"That's too much trouble. I don't want to."
"Huh?"
"This isn't right. I'm your master, so you should do what I say."
"No way."
She refuses Elena's request.
"Huh? How could you!"
. . . . . . . . .
Many years later, Elena gently holds a sleeping Alice. "Your job is to live happily with your big sister from now on."
