"It's important enough that it appears in Gin's creation story, so why did it come as a surprise?""Well... How are you supposed to prepare to stop someone close to you from taking your life?"...Two decades of fighting between neighboring kingdoms Gin no Ōkoku and Kuro no Ōkoku ended after thousands—if not more—lives were lost. Yet a few weeks prior and seventeen years hence, there is an even greater loss in Gin; murder after murder occurring in the same halls, and only three are able to escape from it. One seeks the help of familiar faces, while the other seeks to kill the problem. No matter the method, however, the third will sleep.

A story inspired by Japanese mythology and stories with some Western influences. A part of the "Silver and Black" universe of original stories.Reading Tip!: In words like "Tsuyoi," the 'Ts' is just pronounced like an 'S.' When characters say their/someone else' name (i.e., "Are you Lord Shirogane Kozue?" in chapter 5), their last name is said first. The exception to this is the gods, where "Kyōryokuna" and "Tsuyoi" are titles.
