After defeating the Chimera Telethia, Elma reveals to her comrades that she is not human, but an alien who arrived on Earth thirty years prior to its destruction, took a human appearance, and helped prepare the humans for the alien war. Afterwards, it is revealed that she was responsible for introducing highly advanced technology to Earth, including Skells, BBs, and the faster-than-light travel technology used by the Ark Ships.
