Kaede has spent her life haunted by a lullaby she cannot remember and dreams of a mother whose face disappears every time she reaches for it. When a darkness that feeds on forgotten memories begins spreading across the land, the only life she has ever known is torn away. Armed with little more than her sword and the fragments of a past she cannot grasp, Kaede is forced onto a journey through ancient shrines, forgotten kingdoms, and forests where old legends still whisper beneath the trees. Alongside a wandering swordsman burdened by secrets of his own—and an enigmatic companion who seems to know far more about her than he should—Kaede begins to uncover a truth someone has spent centuries trying to bury. But some memories are hidden for a reason. As the line between myth and reality begins to unravel, Kaede must decide whether the past should be remembered... or left to sleep forever. Because not every monster is born from hatred. Some are born from grief.
