   Summary

   After so much blood and trauma, they took the mantle of The Lord of Shades. Ghost simply wanted peace for themselves, for all of the corpses of their siblings they had encountered on their journey.

   So what do they do? They go back in time and bring the memories of the future with them. With all of the knowledge of the future and a second chance at life, trying to hide from the one who brought them to life and yet took their lives away, could they all have peace?
