Story
"Miyako" and "Hakoniwa"
Two different lands connected like an hourglass.
The people of "Miyako" offer their transgressions in pursuit of perfection, and the strange beings of "Hakoniwa" purify those transgressions and return them to "Miyako."
This cycle maintained the peace of the two lands, but then a change occurred in "Hakoniwa," and that fragile balance collapsed...
