Introduction

The ‘Key’ — Iris — is predestined to be sacrificed in an eternal samsara; the ceaseless cycle of life, death, and rebirth, bearing the burden of the constellations’ karma as her own.

‘God’ forged two false stars, both of which were tasked to guide the Key and ensure the continuation of the samsara. The two guides Astria and Esper accompanied Iris on her journey, time and time again. They raised her, mentored her, protected her, and in turn learned to possess an ego of their own — but the ending of each journey was always the same. The false stars, who could not interfere with her fate, would witness Iris meet her end as she was thrust into the Eye of Eden, accumulating karma until her dying vessel was inevitably swallowed into the red shard.

The seal of memories corrodes.

From the skies, she descends again, born anew under the kiss of stardust. Her guardians tread up the hill, weaving through the waving reeds under the deep sea of night to witness the first breath of a newborn lamb.

The journey begins.
