Story
Five hundred years have passed since the humans went extinct at the hands of the fearsome and mysterious 'Beasts.' The surviving races now make their homes up on floating islands in the sky, out of reach of all, but the most mobile of Beasts. However, this new safe haven Règles Aile has a dark secret behind it. In order to defeat the Beasts, only a small group of young girls, the Leprechauns, can wield the ancient Dug Weapons needed to fend off invasions from these creatures.

Into the girls' unstable and fleeting lives, where a call to certain death could come at any moment, enters Willem Kmetsch, a young man who has just woken up from being petrified over a year ago to discover that everything that he once loved is gone now. Unable to fight any longer, Willem becomes the father that the girls never had, caring for and nurturing them even as he struggles to come to terms with the growing difficulties of his new life, in which he feels the pain of helplessly waiting for his loved ones to return home from battle that his 'Daughter' maybe once felt for him so long ago.

Together, through their everyday interactions in the 'orphanage,' Willem and the girls gradually come to understand what family means and what is truly worth protecting. (Source: SukaSuka - MyAnimeList.com).
