Spiral Dystopia

Kou, the descendant of a family that manages a deserted shrine, meets a mysterious woman called Miyu who wanders the streets at night with a bamboo sword. When Kou and Miyu discover the ancient book that Miyu is searching for, lightning strikes and the world begins to spiral. Once, a priest and his two beloved daughters lived together in a shrine. One day, a traveler appeared. "When snow falls in summer, the world will meet its end. But there is still time to stop it," the traveler said. Lightning fell and calamity arose from the deep. It welled up within the people and spoke to them from beyond the wall. "Make slaves of the fruit. This is the Law." The traveler will raise the sword. The father will guard his daughters. The three fruits must be protected. A time for choices will come. The choices will be absolute, no matter what form they might take. With choices made, the world will change around them. Under the watchful eye, it must change. The end is at hand, and the future of the world will be decided in a small town in the Japanese countryside. Will Kou fight to protect his loved ones from the merciless hands of fate, or will he let the Rite of the Law run its course?
