The Story of the Reve Rouille
Should've posted this a long time ago, but never again will I have to type up this post thanks to glorious copy/paste!

A youthful lady whom lives off of the coasts of somewhere in Japan has a passion to make toys. She cares for these contraptions as if they were her own family, thus she goes down deep into the ocean to acquire abalone pearls (a most prized posession to her), and shapes them into hearts; enchanting them in a way, as well as decorating them with what she feels is worthy enough representation of her love. Her skills and integrity have not gone unnoticed though. A messenger on a mission is sent to find the lass, and offers a flower in exchange for her heart. Madamoiselle refuses the offer, but despite saying no, the shark takes her heart anyway, leaving her to die.
One of her toys, a flying daruma crab, brings her back to life with a mechanical heart that he or she must've made. Feeling betrayed, she vowed revenge once her wound have healed. Since the shark was only a messenger, she intends on getting her heart back and killing the shark's master, a minor god/spirit of the sea known in the EI as Cavalier.

Madamoiselle lunges into the depths of the ocean with those two goals in mind, but despite her efforts, she was only able to accomplish killing the Cavalier. The cavalier had dropped her heart, and it sank deeper and deeper into the oceans fathoms, to where Madamoiselle wasn't able to get it back. She emerged from out of the water, inevitably invictorious. And with time, the rest of her body began to deteriorate, because she had no heart to keep her original body alive. So with every failing piece of her body, she made a new one out of mechanical parts.

I have my own theory coming out of this one that miss pepper-tea might've made this EI inspired by the Meiji Restoration Era. The time of the begining of the modernization of japan, and the fall of samurai. Madamoiselle represents old japanese beliefes fighting against europe's movement (Cavalier) to modernize Japan. As the story goes, Japan drives back the westernizers, but they've already taken so much, there's no way to go back to how things once were.
