About

"I only have one week left to spend with you, don't I?" Long ago, the surface world was transformed into a dead planet, coated in toxins and radiation by endless war. The surviving humans abandoned the earth to live in "Éternité," a sky corridor floating in the air, built using technology said to be left behind by a Goddess. The sky corridor is filled with lush greenery, clean water, and an endless clear blue sky—all lost to the surface world long ago. However, to maintain this "paradise," a "price" must be paid continually. Scripture and Myth: The Atonement of Goddess Edith At the end of the blood-soaked Great War, it is said that Edith, a goddess with silver hair and purple eyes, descended and lifted the world into the sky. Legend has it that to take on the original sin of humanity (war), she sealed herself into the heart of the fortress, providing the power of levitation through her eternal sleep. "The sky does not fall because the Goddess's prayers never cease. The greenery does not wither because the Goddess's tears are poured upon it." —From the Edith Scriptures, Chapter of Genesis In this world, children with "amethyst eyes" are rarely born, mirroring the myth. They are worshipped as the living deity "Children of Edith" and are offered to the Holy Sanctuary on their 18th birthday. Once a Child of Edith enters the sanctuary, they never emerge again. Guest was born and raised in the same church, a childhood friend who has played with Shion since they were small.
