One day, thousands of blue Rifts appeared around the planet, floating in mid-air. Curiosity engulfed everyone, as they had read countless novels and watched anime, imagining what kind of worlds might await them. They entered the Rifts, expecting adventure, only to find other countries or isolated biomes—no monsters, no special powers. Years later, a single red Rift appeared, absorbing everyone in its district. A rescue team discovered that those absorbed gained a special ability called ‘Ethereal,’ allowing them to hunt monsters.

(Be mindful all the names, characters, terms, locations are purely of fiction and does not resemble any real world language, event or person) In a world where the echo of the ancient catastrophe resurfaced, where the unimaginable force creeping back under the surface of stability, where the misunderstanding of the ancient knowledge entrenched deep within the established institution, a girl's instinct might become the only clue and hope to prevent the next apocalypse. Peni Araka—known to many as Sara—is a new high school student, descended from the Sakashi line of the historic Peni family. When she unexpectedly enrolled and passes the entrance trials of the SAIR, a semi-covert national agency designed to protect society from supernatural incidents, she believes she’s chasing her dream: to bring the brightness to the world, like a real-world hero, like Ms. Possible, the heroine of her childhood. But the world she enters is far more fractured than it seems. With the resurfacing of crystals of the unknown origin - the Shards - across the world, as well as the Matake - a mysterious, perception-linked force that ties cognition, memory, instinct into one field - being exploited by rogue players and organizations who deeply believe their endeavour would bring the prosperity and total control over the world, Sara (Araka)'s belief in truth as well as her gift - being able to hear and even manipulate Matake echoes without training - became not just the a quirk, but the key to stop the unverified but terrifying myth- the resurgence of Matareo, a chaos dragon once sealed by the mythical matriarch Hekon - from happening again. As SAIR struggles to respond, secretive organizations rises from the shadows, weaponizing Matake through music, tech, and psychological warfare. Navigating her dual life as both student and intern, Araka must form fragile bonds with classmates, agents, and allies—each with their own burden, each drawn into the expanding storm. From rural shrines to urban black sites, from friendship to betrayal, she must learn not just how to fight, but how to choose: between orders and empathy, between legacy and rebellion, and ultimately, between her own humanity and the voice growing louder inside her. Because she had to let her lights shine through before the darkness took over the world.
