Synopsis

The Clock is Ticking. The Forest Remembers.

In a world gripped by fear, a chilling ultimatum has been delivered: the ancient, mysterious Kuro-no-Mori, a forest long shrouded in dark folklore, has declared that humanity has one year left. An impending "Reclamation"—a catastrophic event promising annihilation—looms over Orikawa Town and potentially the world.

Amidst the rising panic, conflicting prophecies, and desperate schemes, stands Zenshi Kaname, an Anomalous Cartographer. Unlike the scientists and soldiers scrambling for a solution through force or technology, Zen possesses a different kind of skill—a profound calmness, a sharp, analytical mind, and a unique ability to perceive the subtle energies that others miss. Tasked with mapping the volatile forest, his true mission is not to fight the coming end, but to understand why it's happening.

The fate of the world may rest not on strength, but on whether one person can finally truly understand.
