June 1923 in the unified calendar. Tanya Degurechaff, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed young girl, is training on the third patrol line of the Norden theatre in the northern military district, as part of the final troop-service course at the Imperial military academy. This first step towards a brilliant career as an aerial mage was supposed to finish safely and without incident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead, events take an unexpected turn. A cross-border incursion by the Entente Alliance brings the Empire and the Alliance into a state of war. Assigned observation duties as the army shifts to a wartime footing, Tanya is caught in an Alliance surprise attack and must fight an enemy mage company alone.

Desperate to survive and demonstrate to her superiors that she has done her utmost, Tanya launches a particular operation...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistorical retailer campaigns Kadokawa Store advertised original canvas art as its exclusive purchase gift; that campaign has ended.
