In Tokyo, where the System siphons thought, emotions & memories, a literature student meets a strange psychic girl and they embark on an escape from mindless agents, dream worlds and reality itself, in a soul-searching journey for love, for identity and what it means to be human.

"Very interesting concept of reality... Thought provoking.." "I have been turned to a whole new way of thinking because of you." "Like a seven course meal full of spice and illumination...

A rare breed of good story and thought provoking ideas... A virtual standing ovation would not be enough to encapsulate the absolute awe I have of you."

La más pequeña, hiperactiva y caprichosa de todas, escogió la primavera, ella se encargaría de llevar a todas partes los olores y la armonía de dicha estación. El verano seria aquella alegre, cálida y risueña. La que fuera capaz de llevar el calor y la vitalidad a todos los lugares. Después vino el otoño, aquella hermana pensó que todos debían tener la capacidad de soñar, enmendarse y de mejorar. Ella lo llevo a todos los rincones. Al final vino el invierno... el invierno era frío, cruel y despiadado. Cerrando los ojos ante el sufrimiento. Cuando el invierno llegaba las demás hermanas se ocultaban. Así sucedió. Así lo dicta la leyenda. Así funciona el mundo. Fue así como decidieron que el invierno debía tener corazón de hielo. Mi nombre es Hanna, y yo soy el invierno.
