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.
