Who are they, the Children of the Blade? We would call them murderers. But they are not like us, and they do not care about us people - our morality is alien and not interesting to them. They call themselves artists of Death, they paint ominous pictures of death, and their names are akin to a curse. Our life and death are just paints for their canvases. But ironically, it is one of them, the proud and cruel Ra, who in troubled times will become the protector of the people whom she previously despised so much... Before you is a black and white saga about absolute loneliness in a world where there is only duty and beauty - the beauty of murder, as the Children of the Blade understand it.
