Kannazuki no Miko opens in Mahoroba, a village where time drifts gently for people and nature alike. Two pupils of the famed Ototachibana Academy appear worlds apart: Himeko, reserved and hesitant; Chikane, confident and graceful. Yet their affection is unwavering, and nothing can sever their bond despite all obstacles.
On the day they share a birthday, a malevolent whisper turns one companion into an assailant. Just as despair peaks, the dormant lunar‑solar priestess abilities within both girls ignite, banishing the darkness. That was merely the first test; now they must confront countless threats that endanger them—even those nearest to them. Their resolve hardens, forging an unbreakable shield of hope that defies every looming peril. Together, they navigate the shadows, trusting that love will illuminate even the darkest corners.
