Long ago, the Angels were just myths, talked about in religious tales and invoked as protectors. Many were feared, but still revered. That is, until they manifested and started attacking humanity. To counteract the threat, humans are paired with Evangelions, a race of technoorganic beings roughly similar to the Angels in certain aspects. By syncing their minds with and piloting them, human and Eva can fight the Angels and neutralise their threats. Raiha Shinikami is an Eva pilot with a secret: she is able to communicate with Angels. She does not know where this ability came from, only that she has had it since birth. Blessed and burdened by it, she spends her days attending school and hanging out with her Eva blood sister, Sayuri, while their parents battle Angels elsewhere. But Raiha is about to get a real taste of this fight when she encounters one of the many Archangels during a trip to Tokyo-3. What will she do when Sachiel not only speaks to her, but comes back as a smaller version of himself? Can peace truly be obtained?
