**THIRTEEN SCATTERED HEARTS**
*An Epic of Kyoto*
Kaizu Amano and Kimishi Serizawa have spent four years hating each other.
He is the boy everyone seems to love-the golden, effortless one who can walk into a room and make it his.
She is the girl who believes he took everything that was once hers.
They were never friends.
They were never meant to understand each other.
Until one night, at a summer festival, four years of anger finally explode.
Kimishi says she wishes the entire town would disappear.
The sky turns white.
And Nishikawa is gone.
When Kaizu wakes, there is no town. No families. No friends. No explanation.
Only a strange grey world, an ancient temple, and Kimishi-the one person he thought he could never stand.
Then they discover six glowing characters carved into the temple stone:
Two from one, torn and thrown...
Seek the thirteen scattered hearts
where the whole self used to live.
Somewhere beyond their ruined world lie thirteen mysterious pieces of something they were once part of.
To find them, Kaizu and Kimishi must cross impossible worlds, confront buried memories, and learn why their emotions seem capable of changing reality itself.
But the deeper they travel, the more terrifying the truth becomes.
Because the thirteen hearts aren't simply pieces of a lost world.
They are pieces of them.
And if Kaizu and Kimishi cannot learn to feel together without destroying everything around them...
They may never find their way home.
Two enemies.
Thirteen hearts.
One broken world.
And a mystery that began long before either of them was born.
