Shadow Garden

Shadow Garden is a secret organisation dedicated in battling the Order of Diabolos and prevent the resurrection of the ancient demon.

Background
The origins of Shadow Garden dated back during Sid Kagenou's childhood. Determined to fulfill his dream in becoming the Power within the Shadows, Sid repeatedly snuck out of his home to attack bandits that were within his vicinity. During one of them, Sid discovered an elf girl, heavily mutated by Demonic Possession.

Sid performed multiple experiments on her and has successfully restored the girl to her true self. Thinking she might be useful to his cause, Sid fabricated a story, convincing the elf girl that she was the descendant of one of the Three Heroes and that a demon and a cult worshiping it were responsible for placing Demonic Possession onto her and other descendants. The girl became enraged and swore loyalty to her new master who named her, Alpha. Unknown to Sid, his story accidentally revealed the real cult.

Together, they formed Shadow Garden. As time passed, Sid and Alpha have begun recruiting six more girls who had the same infliction as the latter had. They spent their time training and listening to the stories Sid had from his past life, such as economics and literature. This inspired them to better themselves and used those concepts into their world.

The Assault on Viscount Olba
After Claire was kidnapped by Olba, Shadow Garden immediately mobilized to find her. With Sid's help, they managed to find a secret hideout where she was kept. At night, Shadow Garden attacked the hideout, killing all of its guards. They were close in capturing Olba, intending to extract information about the Order of Diabolos, before he manages to escape from their grasps. He didn't get that far as Shadow killed him. Claire was rescued and Shadow Garden return home.

Princess Alexia's Kidnapping
At Midgar Royal Spellsword Academy, Sid was framed for the kidnapping of Princess Alexia. Sid calls in Shadow Garden to help him in finding her and discovers the act to be a ploy by the cult. They mobilize, uncovering and destroying their enemies' hideouts in the kingdom. Alpha defeats a rampaging monster while Shadow rescues the princess. After this point, the world knows the existence of Shadow Garden and the Order of Diabolos.

The Midgar Academy Terrorist Attack
Gamma, Nyuu and Shadow Garden were investigating a series of attacks by individuals citizens believed to be Shadow Garden. Sid and Nyuu went out searching for these pretenders and successfully captured one, learning from him that he was from the Order of Diabolos.

Their major confrontation is when the cult took over Midgar Academy, to frame and discredit Shadow Garden. Shadow had already slaughtered most of them while Nyuu and a squad of Shadow Garden members finished off the rest and rescues the hostages. Despite being branded as criminals, this does not impede Shadow Garden's mission with all their member vowing to continue on.

Holy Ground Infiltration
Their next operation is to infiltrate the Holy Ground and find out the truth behind the Three Heroes, Diabolos and the order. Alexia and her team composed of Delta and Epsilon captures Archbishop Nelson for questioning before heading into the Holy Ground with Beta (posing as Miss Natsume), Princess Alexia and Princess Rose in tow.

After getting the required information, Alpha's team escaped before Shadow wiped out the Holy Ground from existence, causing more notoriety about them.

The God of War Tournament
Shadow Garden started to make plans on investigating the Oriana Kingdom, suspecting it to be the next target of the Order of the Diabolos. Shadow and later Alpha search for Rose Oriana, who became a fugitive for assassinating her father. Rose was convinced to join the Shadow Garden.
