At the end of the world, there is a sea called Kyokai (‹•ŠCthe empty sea). At the east and the west of this sea, there are two countries. They normally are separated completely and never intersect with each other. However, they share the same one myth.

It is said that at the far other side of the sea stood a magical kingdom.

It is a blessed kingdom that only chosen people can visit. Abundance is promised to the land, wealth flows like fountains, old age or death is absent, and any type of pain is unheard of. One side call the other place Hourai (–H—‰), and the other side call the other place Tokoyo (ν’).

The two separated countries, Hourai-koku (–H—‰‘) and Tokoyo-koku (ν’‘), were then both midnight. In each of them, one boy opened his eyes.
