Synopsis
Ciel is an esper from the now destroyed last stronghold of humanity, Bastion City. The city had survived long past the dreaded Judgment Day, when eternal flames suddenly engulfed the earth and the ghastly fallen appeared. Such an event served as a catalyst for a surge in the supernatural and mystical activities and now monsters and aberrations alike infest the world, morphing into yet another threat which humanity must combat in order to survive within their new reality.
Two years after its destruction, Ciel, along with the last of humanity, find themselves beaten and all but defeated. Desperate to change this outcome, Ciel deploys one of the few tricks left at his disposal, that being his ability to manifest each of the major arcana cards into the real world, and successfully regresses to the past. However due to his unstable power his soul fails to withstand the arduous journey back and shatters into twenty two pieces. These pieces each represent a major arcana card which have been given shape as clones.
If Ciel ever hopes to reach and surpass the strength his future self wielded as well as accomplish his wish of helping his previous mentor, he must now take it upon himself to hunt down each clone and become whole again. Such a task will not be easy, for the clones not only hold pieces of himself but of his old power as well. Beyond that each is ready for the bloody battle that awaits, that of hunter and prey.
While Ciel is occupied attempting to complete the daunting task set before him, his previous mentor has already started her new life as an Officer of NSRA, the agency responsible for the eradication of monsters within Bastion…
Just how will these two fates collide?
