    Summary

    How did Soul Society begin? For that matter, how did souls begin? What are souls? And whatever happened to Ukitake?

    A lyrical tale, retold in the mother of all flashbacks reaching far back into the dawn of creation, beginning from a single gesture made on Winter Solstice Day one year after the end of Yhwach.

    Summary

    “And what of honour? If you help him now, yes, you can probably save his life. But at the same time, it will kill his honour for all eternity. Listen, and remember well. There are two kinds of fights. As long as we place ourselves in battle, we must always know the difference — a fight to defend life, or a fight to defend honour.” — Ukitake Jūshirō, Chapter 135, Bleach manga.

    As the Gotei 13 distracts the vengeful successors to the Central 46 with elaborate, public mourning, Ukitake quietly leaves for the Gense under cover of a dim, hazy dawn whose winds portend a nebulous sense of change.

    His mission is strictly in and out: meet Urahara, find out what exactly is the Hōgyoku, what truly happened when Rukia transferred her powers to Ichigo, and go home in one piece.

    But after 300 years, the human world is now nigh unrecognisable. Without Shunsui by his side, can he still do his job and keep his oath to Yamamoto to stay out of human affairs? And why, for all of Urahara's attentive hospitality, is the young scientist avoiding him?

    In this finale, follow noble, sickly, and fractured Ukitake Jūshirō as he pursues the truth of everything.
