{ Soul Calibur IV: Soul Resonance }
[Prologue]

Ashlotte Maedel*, a mechanical human doll, has fulfilled her one and only purpose for existence: kill Astaroth*.

Created by the same cult who brought the wild human golem to life, she had set on a quest to find the rampaging giant and silence it forever. Made from chains of iron gears and cogs, she was built into the shape of a human female. Deprived of emotions and conscious thought, she came to life as a soulless being.

Though being able to move and speak accurately like a normal human, she was still considered a tool to the cult and their goals. Despite her living existence, she was even called an 'it'.

Still, she obediently followed her orders and set out to silence the golem, Astaroth.

When she had succeeded, she brought the fallen behemoth's body back to her masters as sign of proof.

Ashlotte now lies asleep in her bed of gorgeous flowers and goes into a long a deep slumber.

Five years have passed since then. The doll, once known as the Iron Maiden, awaits patiently for her future orders as she lays asleep, alone within the lost ruins of the forgotten cult temple…
