1

The series begins with a schoolgirl from St. Mihailov's Academy being killed for data about the Tsar Crowning icon. The next morning, schoolgirls Mafuyu Oribe and Tomo Yamanobe pray in the campus church after beginning another school day; a tap on Tomo's head later, an encounter with Teresa Beria gives way to having demonstrated an example of the ridicule directed at Tomo and Mafuyu along with their arch-nemeses Miyuri Tsujidou and Hana Katsuragi. As Tomo and Mafuyu return home, however, they discover an infirm boy named Alexander 'Sasha' Nikolaevich Hel who later intercedes for her when the Magnesium Qwaser Pax Romania igniting the paintings in an attempt to torture Mafuyu instigates a battle that serves as a tutorial for defining Qwasers and their soma-synthesizing Maria partners along with demonstrating the necessity of soma in driving their chemistry-based powers over their assigned element; if that is not confusing enough for Mafuyu, Sasha is ultimately far more austere than his playful-sounding nickname suggests as he sees no reason to adhere to Miyuri's student government nor the standard social protocols of civilization.
