Synopsis

There's a simple three-step plan for celebrating the end of exams.Step 1: Go to an izakaya. Step 2: Drink just a little too much, but not enough to black out. Step 3: Try not to get caught in the middle of a fracture in reality.Asahi and Wren failed step three. Spectacularly.On the walk home, they stumble into a reality fracture and cross paths with the Stalker, a predatory entity that has been hunting the streets of Hanafuda for weeks. The creature has found fresh prey. They don't make it out intact.They wake up in a hospital. Asahi's own family sells them a tidy lie about a drunken stumble down a staircase. But Wren and Asahi know what they saw. They break into their doctor's office, find the file, and discover the truth: the hospital staff knows exactly what attacked them, and has been covering it up.Before they can process this, they're caught by Raechal, the composed and formidable right hand of Daiki, Asahi's older brother, and a man Asahi hates with the passion of a thousand suns.It turns out the Stalker was Raechal's case to handle. She found them first. She brings the two before Daiki, who decides the cleanest solution is the boldest one:Join the Keepers. Or have your memories of the event, each other, and everything you now know permanently wiped.Welcome to your new job.

What Are the Keepers?

The oldest organisation in human existence. They predate governments. They manage governments. Their job is simple: contain the reality fractures, neutralise the Oddities that crawl through them, and make sure the public never finds out any of it is happening.They're not the good guys. They're not the bad guys. They're the people who decided, a very long time ago, that someone had to do this, and that someone might as well be them.

What is an Oddity?

When the fabric of reality tears, things come through. Some are harmless. Some are dangerous. Some are world-ending.

• Class 1: A dustbin that teleports its contents to random locations worldwide. Annoying.
• Class 2: A stalker entity that hunts prey through the streets of Zayu. Your problem, apparently.
• Class 3: A sentient predatory botanical garden that forms an infinite maze. Pray you never meet one.
• Class 4: The kind of thing that reshapes continents. It's happened before. Nobody noticed.

Asahi and Wren are now responsible for handling all of the above.
