Prologue

In a world unlisted in the Akashic record, a girl was born with a certain fate. She was raised rapidly within that world in order to meet that fate. It was sometimes painful, sometimes cruel, and always heavy. But she never let it weigh her down, because she believed it was something worth doing. Without ever uttering a single complaint, she accepted her destiny.

Sometimes that meant fighting to the bitter end. Sometimes it meant helping others. Sometimes it meant clinging desperately. Sometimes it meant having to make a choice. It was by no means easy. No, it was cruel and harsh. There was never a relaxing moment, but there was happiness.

There were moments she received gratitude. Moments she was able to save people. Moments when they encouraged her. Moments they showed her great kindness. And those moments spurred her onward. All the pain she experienced gave her grit to endure just as the happiness drove her forward. That was how she lived.

She wasn’t always strong, but her way of living tempered her like steel. And then, one day... A hole opened in the world. At the center of her broken world surged forth darkness and despair. But even then, she didn’t give up.
