“The story takes place three months after the epilogue of The MOVIE 2nd A’s, with Nanoha and her friends attending 5th grade during the summer of 0067, when there is also no canonical coverage of what happened in the primary continuity. At the same time, the world of Eltria is slowly dying, similar to the setting in The Gears of Destiny.[4]
Just like The Gears of Destiny, a pair of researchers, together with their two daughters, Amitie and Kirie live in the dying planet of Eltria to revive the planet. But with their father dying, Kirie sets off to seek of ways to revive the planet and hopefully, healing their father, against her older sister’s wishes. But unlike in The Gears of Destiny, Kirie sets off with her childhood friend Iris on this journey.”
