Asa Herschel

Asa Herschel (アーサ・ハーシェル) is the older sister of Nayuta Herschel and his guardian in.

Appearance
Asa is Nayuta's older sister. She has long, blonde hair which falls to her waist in waves and pale green eyes. Asa wears a large billowy cream top with a lacy feather trim, cords around her neck and shoulders and red ribbon weaved around the edges. She wears two skirts: one is a long white skirt worn underneath a open sided salmon skirt with a multi-coloured pattern around the edge. Asa also wears sandals.

Personality
She is a kind-hearted person who likes to study Star Fragments.

Asa considers herself a 'Fragment Observer' because of her love and devotion to the study of the Star Fragments. She has served as a mother figure to Nayuta and Signa, taking care of them after the death of their parents and is well loved by everyone on the island. She is an excellent cook and makes lunches for Nayuta. Ingredients can be taken to Asa from which she can make these lunchboxes, each containing a different effect. Experience is earned from using them. New recipes can be gained for new items.

During the course of the story, Asa falls ill with a mysterious illess and has only one hope of recovery- a rare flower not seen for many year on Remnant Island. Fortunately, the flower in question grows bountifully on Lost Heaven's third continent: Heimmel, The Sacred mountain. Nayuta travels there as part of his quest to retrieve all four Master Gears, only to find its guardian Argol sealed and the climate of the continent changed to one of blustery winter, meaning no flowers are growing. Nayuta defeats a rampaging guardian construct and resets the continent, allowing Spring to return and the flower to be recovered. With the flower, Asa's health is restored.

Trivia

 * Following Nayuta's astronomical theme naming, Herschel is a reference to the famous astronomer William Herschel. Her forename Asa may be a reference to daybreak or morning, or possibly the Earth itself.
