Once settled in the small town of Osaka in Japan, she came to the quick realization that she needs to help herself survive in this town. Without knowing anyone or having any family alongside her besides her cat, she was determined to find a way to live in this town by providing the skills she possesses from her witch side. After many trials, errors, and setbacks, she came across the towns need for someone to deliver things such as gifts or baked goods at a very fast rate.
