“This is the look Fleurdelis had when she revived for just a moment, in order to protect Ecclesia. ‘The Iris Swordsoul’ was her state when she suppressed the brands that were gnawing at her, using the energy of the Icejades, but she had not mastered the skills of the Swordsouls. It could be said that ‘Despian Luluwalilith’ is the form she takes at the very last moment, where the energy cluster of 665 people including herself turned into a weapon, awakening as a true Swordsoul Master. The final forms that Shuraig, Sargas and Albion take were designed to be limited to that very moment, with their journeys so far converging in a single destination for the decisive battle of Golgonda, for that instant where they managed to overcome a massive enemy. I’m very thankful to the various illustrators who created them.”
TL note: The jp name of “The Iris Swordsoul” includes the term “Swordsoul Master” (相剣師, Soukenshi, like Mo Ye, Taia, etc.). The comment is explaining that while the monster card includes the name “Swordsoul Master”, Fleurdelis had not actually mastered their techniques at that point in time, and only managed to do so after becoming Luluwalilith.
