Over a thousand years ago in a time of royal courts, Samurai and magic, Kanna is held captive and exploited for her magical powers. When she sacrifices herself to protect her maid, Uraha, and guard, Ryuya, she is cursed by her pursuers, and her spirit is imprisoned in the sky for eternity. In return for Kanna's selfless act, Ryuya and Uraha vow to free her spirit no matter how long it takes. This quest is passed down through the generations, and now lies with Yukito, their present-day descendant. Although he retains the magical knowledge of his ancestors, he has found little use for it beyond earning himself a meager living as a performer as he drifts from place to place. But his outlook changes when he finds himself in a sleepy seaside town, where mysterious, supernatural events are unfolding. It is here that Yukito will begin to learn his ultimate destiny.

According to Larry, the two bombing plots originated from a financial business zone in London, orchestrated via server by a computer virus dubbed "Wizard". The virus was developed by a Brazilian-Japanese named Madoka with whom Sawa and his force had previously crossed paths as a suspect in a serial murder case. Like Ataru, Madoka bears traits similar to those of a savant and was also formerly an SPB candidate who had received training. The two remotely perpetrated bombings put the FBI and Tokyo Metropolitan Police Agency in hot pursuit of Madoka.
