Princess Mycella

Princess Mycella is the main heroine of Samurai Legend Musashi. The daughter of Banon and Fermiere, the leaders of the Mystics, she is essentially Antheum's princess, and the summoner who brought Musashi into their world. Along with being the princess of Antheum, Mycella considered the most magically latent of the Mystics in all of their history, and so is widely considered her people's hope for the future.

With her immense magical talent, she is able to perform the most powerful of magics, her specialty being summoning magic. However, Gandrake seeks the enslavement of the Mystics, and especially Mycella, due to their magical powers being able to process great amounts of nebulite for Gandrake Enterprises' purposes. Knowing well of the threat that Gandrake Enterprises poses to her people, she learned of the Cantus Heroa, a great spell that summons a hero from another world, through the legends of a far away land that used the spell in their own time of peril. When the megacorporation begins its attack on Antheum, Mycella immediately casts the spell, but not before Gandrake's forces corners her and take her away.

Princess Mycella is imprisoned after this at Nebulium Tower in the Wellspring Woods, until Musashi, the summoned hero, is able to rescue her from her enslavement. She is then taken by Gandrake immediately after Musashi dispatches the Vaporbot prototype, to Rampart Isle, where Gandrake Enterprises's headquarters is located. When output for the Nebulium Engine demands increased output, Gandrake places both Mirabo, the gentler of the Maidens of Fire, and relocates Princess Mycella at Nebulium Tower again, under Secretary Clochette's discretion. Musashi, at this point having sabotaged Gandrake's expansion at Mount Terrior and having rescued Maribo, the more upbeat of the Maidens of Fire, who was to be the catalyst for the volcanic activity modulator, who informs him of their location.

Able to properly deliver her back to her people, Princess Mycella's rescue is celebrated by all of Antheum, and she is able to resume her duties as royalty and beloved personality of the Mystics. However, such peace would be shortlived, as she would again be kidnapped in the dead of night by Clochette, under Gandrake's impending demand.

When Musashi is able to attain all Five Swords and attain their graces with the Five Maidens, and makes his assault on Rampart Isle, Mycella's imprisonment is overseen by Director of Administration, Rothschild. After a deathdefying duel against the last Director, Musashi rescues her for the third time from Gandrake's clutches.

When Musashi confronts Gandrake, and the CEO reveals his plans for the world, she helps during Musashi's fight with Shadow Musashi (who's actually Gandrake) by healing him. This angers Gandrake enough to kill her, but after Musashi completely defeats him, the Anthedon uses the power of all five elemental swords to revive her.

With peace restored to their world, Mycella and the Five Maidens are able to send Musashi back home.

Personality
Mycella is a strongwilled yet gentle teenage girl, who is considered the crown jewel of the community. Though she is not much of a fighter, she is resolute and wise to the world, and is defiant against tyranny and oppression in all of its forms. While her self carried and majestic air is expected of her royal upbringing, this is accentuated by her good natured and devoted character, knowing well of the responsibilities and importance her role as princess she was born into, and does her best to live up to her title. Still, as a teenager, she finds the right times to be her age than constantly be composed all the time.

She has feelings for Musashi, the samurai hero she summoned into the world. There is much they hold in common, and this is believed to be the bond that attracts them to another; Musashi to grow and prove that he will one day be the greatest samurai in his world, Mycella to realize and live to her potential as the most talented of the Mystics in their history. With Musashi learning of her beauty of being and beloved importance to her people, and Mycella swooned by his feats and bravery against all odds to never let down those who depend on him, and despite the short amount of time spent with another, this admiration turned into affection is likely what drives this strong bond between another. When Musashi must return home when his duties are complete, Mycella tears up during the returning ritual, knowing that her beloved hero will be beyond even time and space to reach, and smiles, knowing well, no matter the outcome, they will always be a part of one another, as each other were able to touch each other's lives forever.
