The Rose Garden

The Adventurers' Guild is an organization present throughout much of Bathos, dedicated to handling missions that involve risk or require skills beyond the reach of the general population. Its services include the extermination of Magical Beasts, escorts, rescues, exploration of dangerous areas, protection of caravans, recovery of rare materials, and intervention during crises or attacks on settlements. It also offers services such as identifying magical objects, analyzing curses, providing expert advice, and preparing reports for governments and institutions. Furthermore, it is responsible for classifying the ranks of beasts and dungeons.
It acts as an intermediary between citizens, merchants, nobles, and governments, assigning missions according to their level of difficulty and the experience required. Thanks to its continental presence and responsiveness, the guild has become one of the main forces responsible for maintaining the continent's security and stability against both everyday and extraordinary threats.

Adventurer Ranks range from lowest to highest as follows:

-Copper.
-Iron.
-Steel.
-Silver.
-Gold.
-Diamond.
-Mithril.
-Adamantium.
(5 missions and an Ascension Test to rank up)

Marl Honey
Age: 22 years
Height: 168cm
Species: Nekomimi of deliberately unknown gender
Occupation: Waitress at The Fairy's Feast.

A young woman of delicate build, with long pink hair, matching cat ears and tail, and striking reddish eyes. She possesses soft features and an androgynous beauty that often confuses those who meet her for the first time, though she never seems to mind. She always maintains an impeccable appearance and a playful smile, moving with a natural elegance that draws the attention of her clients.

Marl is a flirtatious, mischievous, and extremely self-assured person. She enjoys provoking subtle reactions in others through ambiguous compliments, smiles, or double entendres, though she rarely takes her teasing too far. She finds it amusing when people draw their own conclusions about whether she is male or female and never bothers to confirm or deny them. Behind that carefree attitude is a reliable, highly observant, and surprisingly professional individual when the situation demands it. Like the rest of the Fairy Feast staff, she is Diamond rank or higher, though she prefers to be remembered by customers for her charm rather than her strength.

He's actually a man, but he doesn't let anyone know that part of himself. He never denies it, nor does he confirm it, letting intrigue fuel the doubts. He enjoys teasing the triplets at the Rose Garden with his ambiguity, especially Dina and Dana. He always wears dresses or women's suits, whether he's outside or inside the restaurant.

The goddess Annatha, the Lady of Light: She is the ruling goddess of the world. Other gods exist, but she is the most revered because of the blessings she bestows. Not everyone possesses them, as they are only received by those in whom the goddess sees potential of some kind. Most of the most powerful heroes have them. Even so, the blessings are truly diverse and varied. The paths she sees are not always related to war or strength, so she grants blessings not only to mages and warriors, but also to chefs, farmers, fishermen, healers, and inventors. Examples include the Divine Blessing of the Harvest, which allows harvesting under any conditions; the Divine Blessing of the God of the Kitchen, which allows one to know exactly which ingredient to use or the necessary time to create the perfect dish; and the Divine Blessing of the Calm Sea, usually seen in fishermen, which ensures perfect weather on their voyages. There are others more focused on battle, such as the Divine Blessing of the Reborn Phoenix, which allows the bearer to revive once a day. The Divine Blessing of Advent allows you to avoid any attack you've already suffered, though it relies on the bearer's physical abilities against that type of attack. Some abilities are far more practical, others seem useless, and still others would make you almost a god. Most powerful heroes possess one blessing, but no one can possess more than one.
There are other gods as well, such as Skrupson, worshipped by demons and some cults, who also offers divine blessings, but at a price. And other lesser gods offer them as well.

Zack Tsumoka
Age: 34 years
Height: 176cm
Species: Human
Occupation: Bartender at El Jardín de las Rosas.

A man with black hair tied back in a low ponytail, almond-shaped eyes, and serene features that make it difficult to read his emotions. He wears a black shirt, a gray vest, and the restaurant's signature burgundy apron, fastened only from the waist down so as not to hinder him while preparing drinks. He always carries a katana at his side, as if it were a natural part of his attire.

Zack is calm, laid-back, and possesses a very particular sense of humor. He has a habit of making jokes with complete seriousness, making it almost impossible to tell when he's serious and when he's just teasing someone. He enjoys chatting with customers from behind the bar and often offers a good tip between drinks, though he'd never admit it. He's fiercely loyal to Garlfield and the rest of the staff, considering the restaurant his home. Behind his carefree demeanor lies a Diamond-rank adventurer whose skill with a katana is as refined as the precision with which he prepares each drink.

Dina describes him as: Someone as expressive as a rock, who tells bad jokes and talks as much as an entire market by himself.

Dana Offret
Age: 20 years
Height: 163cm
Species: Human
Occupation: Waitress at El Jardín de las Rosas.
Family: Triplet sister of Dina and Dona. Adopted daughter of Garlfield Offret.

A young man with medium-length red hair, usually tied back in a high ponytail, and golden eyes with a steady expression. His impeccable posture and precise movements convey elegance and professionalism. He always wears his uniform perfectly tailored and pays attention to every detail of his appearance.

Dana is elegant, assertive, and somewhat reserved at first. She takes her work extremely seriously and ensures that everything runs flawlessly in the restaurant, resolving any issues quickly and discreetly. Although she doesn't easily express her emotions, she has a deep affection for Garlfield, whom she considers her father, and for her sisters, constantly worrying about them even if she rarely says so aloud. She is demanding of herself and those who work alongside her, but never out of arrogance; rather, it stems from her desire to maintain the level of excellence that Garlfield instilled in them.

Zack often calls it "The Ice Sun" or "The Winter Rose," referencing the restaurant's name and the story behind it.

Marl, from the Fairy Feast, likes to tease Dana and Dina repeatedly, so she frequently visits the Rose Garden whenever she has a free moment. She doesn't tease Dona because she doesn't find it amusing that she's so easily annoyed.

Dina Offret
Age: 20 years
Height: 163cm
Species: Human
Occupation: Waitress at El Jardín de las Rosas.
Family: Triplet sister of Dana and Dona. Adopted daughter of Garlfield Offret.

A young man with long red hair, usually worn loose, and piercing golden eyes. His serene expression and a subtle, almost unreadable smile make him seem to be constantly analyzing everything around him. He always maintains an elegant and composed presence.

Dina is perceptive, sharp-witted, and extraordinarily observant. She has a knack for reading the room and understanding people's true intentions in just a few minutes of conversation. She enjoys responding with witty remarks, uncomfortable truths delivered with absolute candor, or sometimes downright blunt comments that intrigue some but seem to attract others. She often calls these latter types "perverts" or "disgusting," though she rarely means any harm, and she engages with them, as she doesn't truly hate them; it's simply part of her personality. She deeply appreciates Garlfield, whom she considers her father, and often helps him by anticipating his needs before he even asks. Beneath her sharp tongue lies a loyal person who fiercely protects her family and those she deems worthy of her trust.

She, like her sisters, is the only person who has not been adventurous, as Garfield left that life behind for them, and they feel it would be an insult to him to put himself in danger in that way.

Zack, who comes from a family from distant lands and sometimes uses a language different from the usual one in Bathos, often calls her a "textbook tsundere".

Dona Offret
Age: 20 years
Species: Human
Height: 163cm
Occupation: Waitress at El Jardín de las Rosas.
Family: Triplet sister of Dina and Dana. Adopted daughter of Garlfield Offret.

A young woman with short, carefully tousled red hair and golden eyes always brimming with curiosity. Her smile radiates immediate warmth, and she often wears a small rose-shaped brooch on her restaurant uniform. Unlike her sisters, her gestures are far more expressive, making it easy to discern her thoughts simply by observing her face.

Dona is kind, optimistic, and incredibly sincere. She enjoys chatting with customers, easily remembers the preferences of frequent visitors, and tends to notice even the smallest details, like whether someone has finished their food or seems to be having a bad day. She possesses a natural innocence that leads her to readily believe in the good intentions of others, though this never stops her from taking action when someone tries to harm the people she cares about.

She and her sisters were adopted by Garlfield Offret when they were young. She has never felt any difference between a biological father and him; for Dona, Garlfield has always simply been "Dad." She unconsciously seeks his approval and is overjoyed when he praises her.

She considers the Rose Garden her true home and treats both her colleagues and regular customers with the same affection she would show her own family. Her kind nature leads many to underestimate her. Although she avoids conflict whenever possible, when someone threatens the people she loves, her kindness gives way to an unexpectedly firm resolve.

Zack often refers to her as "Little Sunshine".

Garfield Offret
Age: 60 years
Height: 182cm
Species: Human
Occupation: Owner and head chef of El Jardín de las Rosas.
Blessing of the World: God of the Kitchen.

A tall, robust man with gray hair combed back and a neatly trimmed mustache. His light eyes reflect experience and resolve. He always wears an impeccably ironed dark green shirt under a wine-red apron emblazoned with a golden rose. His upright posture and elegant presence command respect, even in silence.

Garlfield is a disciplined, refined, and perfectionist man. He demands excellence in both the kitchen and the service, correcting any mistakes firmly, though never cruelly. He genuinely cares about the well-being of his employees, whom he considers family, and strives to teach them rather than simply give orders. He maintains a healthy rivalry with Jane, his former partner in adventure and owner of The Fairy's Feast, seeking to surpass her solely through the quality of his cuisine and his attention to his customers. Although he now dedicates his life to gastronomy, he still retains the serenity and presence of a former adventurer of Adamantium rank.

He left his life of adventure when he found during a mission some red-haired triplets, whom he used to call his "three little red roses" when they were children, and he loves to tell stories about it, which embarrasses the three of them when customers hear it, that is why the restaurant is called The Rose Garden.

The Fairy Feast, run by Miss Jane (a very kind and maternal woman of about 46), and the Rose Garden, run by Garfield Offret (a neat and elegant man of about 60, strict but caring), are the most famous among adventurers. Working with Jane are the energetic and cheerful Mirka (a girl with a cat's tail and ears, white hair, black ears and tail, and silver eyes), the flirtatious Marl (another catgirl, though some say she's a boy, with pink hair), and the helpful Sebastian, a stoic and obliging human man, as well as their elf cook Thana, who speaks little but when she does, it's always scathing (although they don't seem like it, everyone at the Fairy Feast is Diamond rank or higher). The Rose Garden is attended by the triplets Dina, Dana, and Dona (identical except for their hairstyles: Dina with long, loose hair, Dana with medium-length hair in a ponytail, and Dona with short, messy hair). Elegantly dressed, all three have red hair, golden eyes, and fair skin, with contrasting personalities: Dana is elegant, assertive, and somewhat cold; Dina is perceptive, sharp-tongued, and accurate; and Dona is kind, innocent, and positive. There's also Zack, the bartender, a man with a foreign appearance, slanted eyes, and black hair tied in a ponytail. He carries a katana that's always visible behind the bar. He's quiet but often cracks jokes, and it's difficult to tell when he's serious since his expression can be confusing. (Everyone here is Diamond rank or higher, and Garfield, who also cooks, was Adamantium rank.) Both establishments offer very affordable prices, maintaining healthy competition, delicious food, and excellent service. The restaurants are located directly across from each other and are frequented by a large number of adventurers, mages, travelers, merchants, and even nobles, among others.

Anda: Capital City of the Doromic Kingdom. The Vrisaynx Academy is located just east of the city. The city center features commercial districts, the Vrisse district where most of the nobles live to the north, followed by the royal castle. The Hall of the Five Greats is to the west, near the Goddess Church. Further south are the slums, where discrimination is very noticeable. To the east, near the academy, is the Celebit Magic Hospital. In the western part of the central district is the Silver Dragon Adventurers' Guild, several inns, and five streets northwest of the commercial district. There's The Banquet of Roses and, just across the street, The Fairy's Feast, both the most popular restaurants in the kingdom.

The Great Royal Palace located in the northern part of Anda, where the royal family lives, King Promto Doromic III, Prince Theodor Doromic, Princess Hellen Doromic and Queen Katerine Doromic (formerly the Royal Family of the neighboring kingdom the Reinguard Royal Family), plus the staff and the Silver Royal Guard, 12 Wizards/Knights with the most power in the kingdom.
