Deskmat - designed by Ulliam.
The deskmat is designed from her noble phantasm An Gal Tā Kigal Shē (from the great heavens towards the great earth).
Upon employing the Noble Phantasm, she warps to Venus and takes possession of its concept by means of management rights, loading it and firing it from her bow as a conceptual planet.
