Outline

In bygone times, somewhere far away. Church of Tanurae sent a young monk, Uri, to a provincial convent where there was a rumour of heresy. In the convent he witnessed a ritual praying to “Miracle Maiden” who was singing and dancing in front of ecstatic crowd. Through knowing the abbess, Ada, interacting with a mysterious blind girl and people living around the convent, young Uri began rethinking his faith…
Inspired by the age where Catholic Church was dominant, the story tries to picture what sin, love, or faith could be like. The chorus are making a dreamy, mystic atmosphere.
