"Were you... thrown away, too?"

The Edo period. Circus sideshow worker Ichi is left in charge of the care and training of a beast captured to become the sideshow's next showpiece. Ferocious as well as ghastly, the beast terrifies all the caretakers; Ichi, already in a vulnerable position, was simply stuck with the task. At first he cared for the beast grudgingly, regarding it with a contempt born of his dark past experiences, but he begins to sense some humanity in the beast's actions and gives it a name – Bena. Bena's childlike innocence reminds Ichi of his deceased brother and, wanting to somehow return Bena home to his family, Ichi attempts to help him escape. But Bena is no human; he is a child of demons...

Night after night, Elva steps forth into the black sea, sword in hand, to drive back the creatures that surge from the waves. Elva is one of the "kannagi," warrior priests chosen by the divine to protect the island. With his snow-white hair, unaging youth, and black-stained limbs—proof of the corruption that gradually takes the life of every kannagi—the local people fear and shun him... at least until his path crosses with that of a boy named Alto. Enraptured by Elva's strength and lonely soul, Alto swears to serve him and free him from his cursed fate.

After eight long years, Alto has grown into a capable and fearless young man, unwavering in his devotion to his kannagi. Elva had long ago resigned himself to an early death—but somehow, Alto's presence seems to be gradually healing him of the black sea's corruption...
