Ibara takes place in the 19th century, shortly after the development of the steam engine. Because of their precision crafting, the Northern European country of Edelweiss has excelled in the mechanical industry, and was achieving tremendous amounts of growth. However, dark clouds would soon rise up over Edelweiss’ horizon, as Professor Teresa Rose spoke to her 5 guardians with a fearless smile on her face. “Let’s destroy this filthy land and its people. We must make this world beautiful. Yes… then we’ll make the entire surface a lovely rose garden.” Teresa began her attack from their fortress, resembling a twisted and jagged mountain of knives. Under the Rose Garden Emblem, the nails of eerily laughing iron men destroyed buildings, the roars of planes covering the sky burn the Earth. The people’s cries and the rising flames illuminate the fortress, as if it were a beautiful flower blossoming from the scorched earth. The Rose Garden’s power was horrific, but the Edelweiss forces pressed through the desperate battle. As the situation became increasingly dire, the Emperor ordered his Special Imperial Attack Unit, The Negotiators, into battle. “Annihilate the Rose Garden with your ships!” The Negotiators found that these “ships” had been secretly readied, as if predicting they would have to stand up to a threat and had longed for this day to come, shone bright.
