The Order of Aster Tartaricus (紫苑の騎士団 - Shion no Kishi-dan) is a guild created by Balancia alongside Thunder and Reflection. The objective of thiis guild is to put an end to the Black Name PCs by finding the remaining Reliefs. Though their methods are controversial, since they expose players to the Reliefs themselves, causing players to turn into Black Names, Balancia believes this is the only way to put a stop to the threat. For that purpose, they create the El Zion union.
History[]
After the main party finds the third Relief, Balancia and her friends drive away the Phantoms. In the aftermath of these events, they reveal that they founded a new guild for the sole purpose of finding the remaining Reliefs. Setsuna doesn´t agree with her methods, since any player that comes in contact wit a Reliefs and isn´t compatible will turn into a Black Name PC. Balancia admits that although they got two Reliefs, they lost 80 players just to find someone compatible.
Later on, Balancia spreaks before a crowd in Cereka, explaining the present danger to the players and encourages them to help, creating the El Zion union and announcing they found the seventh Relief.
