A sparing glimpse of those shimmering, fragmented moments at the very end of the line…

“When I die, will you hear my story?” From the mind of Mukoubi Aoi, author of TO THE SEA, comes a beautiful and disturbing selection of their early sci-fi flavored short stories. A princess flees a doomed town; after a funeral, a child is haunted by a shadowy woman; a class mourns their departed fellow student in their own way; a scholar visits a relic site on the eve of its closing; a child says farewell to their only toy; a man visits an unfathomable, barbaric town… prepare yourself for these and many more: tantalizing, haunting, desolately beautiful fairy tales from which it may yet prove impossible to turn away.

Luca no longer approaches the human cities like she sometimes would… These days, it’s rare to even see the silhouette of a ship. It’s as if I’ve wandered into a completely different world…

A dolphin wanders the quiet tributaries of Tokyo. A green-haired girl carrying her father’s blade disappears into the night. A dream of a world as unkind as our own, and a story of the youth forever cast down with the burden of their forebearers.

This is the world of orichalcum, the mysterious, seemingly unlimited power of the Tritons, and the world of Poseidon, whose dominion continuously extends, reaching inexorably into the heart of all living things.
