Plot
The story takes place in a world where humans, immortals, and sacred beasts live and breathe.
In the frontier of the prosperous Moonlight Country, two peoples live and breathe.
The White Wolf Tribe survives in the snowy mountains, where no man has ever set foot.
–And the people of Matsurika Village, who live in the unexplored lands where matsurika flowers bloom.
A secret region where flowers bloom that must never be taken out, and where the fire hates them.
The Matsurika girl sings to the fireflies today.
With piercing eyes, she is the one who brings forth the “fire” that connects the lives of her clan – a connoisseur of jewels.
When she comes of age at Keiseisetsu, all causes and effects begin to come full circle.
There are those who continue to live despite their wounds.
There were lives that were taken in order to protect their pride and dignity.
There was a mission that betrayed their will and connected them.
‘I will not forget you. Even if this body decays and ends.”
The winds of misfortune blow and the ancient tunes overlap.
The flower of the unexplored land that must not be broken. Who took her away?
The different missions of those who have inherited the bloodline are set in motion.
This is the story of those who have left no name in official history.
Meet the Cast
Na-ya
A young girl living in the village of Matsurika.
She was born with “penetrating insight” to distinguish valuable gemstones from rough ones, and is entrusted with the responsibility of being a gem appraiser.
She is in charge of her family’s destiny, as jade is necessary for trade to obtain “fire,” which is indispensable for daily life. She is loved by the villagers for her honesty, kindness, and sense of responsibility.

Fey
Loss × First Love
He is the son of Agedo, the chief of Matsurika village. He has a straightforward personality, is dependable, and very popular among the village girls.

His beloved horse is Kalu, the older brother of the protagonist’s beloved horse, Naru.

Ruwo
Fate × Attachment
He is a merchant who travels and trades in various places.
For the past few years, he has been in charge of the fire trade, in which he delivers fire to the village of Matsurika and exchanges it for the gemstones that the main character has appraised.
He has a broad perspective due to his work and is a good conversationalist, so he easily gets along with people he meets for the first time, but he also has a suspicious air about him that makes it difficult to see his true intentions.
He is good at puppet shows with masks, and is always happy to perform in front of the girls of Matsurika Village, as he teaches them about the lore of various regions and the origins of the world in an easy-to-understand manner.

Ko Seirin
Transition × Adoration
Prince of the Moonlight Country.
He is the son of the current king and the next king.
He had a half-brother, but due to an unexpected separation, Seirin is the only male heir to the throne.
Raised at court to be a butterfly and a flower, he is a naive son in a cage.
He has a beautiful heart, a refined way of thinking about things, and is unquestioning of others.
He loves to spend time with birds, so he has a large cage-like birdhouse in the court, where he spends most of his time.
He learns martial arts and academics and the art of courtly behaviour from Enrai, the Prince Taifu, which he will need when he eventually becomes king.

Ku Enrai
Loneliness × Devotion
He is the current head of the Ku Clan, a prominent family in the Moonlight Country, and the Taifu (teacher) of Prince Seirin.
He is a man of both literary and military skills, and his quick thinking sometimes causes him to speak harshly when confronted with those who do not understand him, but he is also skilled at dealing with matters calmly.
While carrying the fate of the Ku Clan on his shoulders, he spends his days trying to become the Taifu of Prince Seirin, in order to have him become a respectable king.
Although he is slender and petite, he is a gluttonous eater to the surprise of everyone.

Zebenera
Union × Affection
He is the king of the White Wolf Tribe, living in a world confined by snow.
He is a man of few words, but he is decisive and respected by the pack he works with.
He calls wolves with his whistle and hunts with them.
In the harsh environment of the snowy mountains, food is not plentiful, but they live by sharing and helping each other.
They try not to hunt carelessly.
To fulfill a promise he made to a certain person, he descends the mountain after nineteen years.
