    Summary

    Ten years after the war, the Soul Society stands whole—on the surface. But some fractures linger in silence.
    Tsukihana Kyōraku walks its corridors like a still moon over dark water: distant, composed, and haunted by names she wasn't allowed to carry. Officially the third officer of the 5th Division, she is also the product of exile loss and identities buried eneath names. When she’s assigned to a joint mission in the mist-shrouded district of Tōma alongside the 9th Division a quiet tension between duty and the ghosts of her past magnifies.
    Hisagi Shūhei leads the mission. The presence of a “Kyōraku” unsettles him more than the case itself. What begins as wary cooperation turns into a quiet, unspoken bond—fragile, intimate, and dangerous in a world where duty overshadows desire.
    As the ghosts of Tsukihana’s past begin to rise—through fog, glances, and unspoken truths—so does the question neither of them dares voice: how much of themselves can they give before the world demands they disappear again?
