The story of revolves around the disaster that occurred following the Uni-Tree's destruction in Concordia. This Uni-Tree was a giant tree that stood in the center of the land of Concordia and held this world together through a power known as Connectar. Connectar spread from the Uni-Tree to the Great Lighthouses and on to each individual area of the land, uniting them together and giving power to everyone. After the destruction, Cozette went missing and little Connie took it upon herself to try growing a new Uni-Tree and bring the world back together.

Prior to this cataclysmic event, Cozette was the Wattanist and caretaker of the Uni-Tree. She was teaching Connie in the ways of being a Wattanist to one day follow after her footsteps. It seems from the way Connie talks, and through flashbacks, as though she was essentially playing a mother role to Connie as she grew up. Cozette is portrayed as someone who was kind, gentle, and rather quiet and introspective. Above all else, she loved the land of Concordia and the Uni-Tree.

In her role as caretaker and Wattanist for the Uni-Tree and the flow of Connectar, Cozette would travel to the Great Lighthouses to make sure things were running smoothly. During one of her visits to a Great Lighthouse, she came across a mysterious egg which spoke to her. The egg was that of Reclusa, an evil spirit who hates any connections and values only solitude.
