Story

Kingdom Hearts χ

Sometime prior to the Keyblade War, Elrena was chosen by the Keyblade and joined one of the five Unions. On occasion, Elrena would come into contact with her fellow Union member, Strelitzia, and the two would discuss their missions with one another. Eventually, her aversion to darkness and exceptional abilities attracted the attention of Ava, who extended to Elrena an invitation to join the Dandelions. Elrena then trained under Ava in preparation to venture to the world outside, a world of dreams, and avoid taking part in the Keyblade War alongside the other Dandelions.

When the time came, Elrena left the old world behind and journeyed to the new world, subsequently forgetting everything about the world she had left behind. Elrena would then relive her past experiences alongside the Dandelions, although unaware of the tragedy of the Keyblade War.

Lauriam asks Elrena about Strelitzia.

Upon realizing that Strelitzia was meant to be among the Dandelions, her older brother Lauriam begins searching for her, looking towards the data of the Dandelions recorded from their experiences in the data worlds. Unable to find her, Lauriam approaches Elrena to ask her about Strelitzia. Although Elrena admits to having known Strelitzia, she is unable to offer any valuable information herself. Recalling that her Chirithy was friends with Strelitzia's own Chirithy, Elrena summons it. After her Chirithy reveals a connection between Strelitzia's last known whereabouts and Skuld, Elrena and Lauriam part ways, with her opting to investigate Strelitzia's disappearance on her own.

After entering the building where Strelitzia had last been seen, Elrena and her Chirithy find themselves alone.

Upon arrival, he thanks Elrena for her assistance, crediting her with the progress he'd been able to make towards finding Strelitzia, but when she tells him that Strelitzia had been seen, he bursts into the abandoned house calling his sister's name.
