This book offers 'a prayer for the dead and the dying...' It's not easy living in a modern day Babylon. With 12 million people competing for jobs, wealth, possessions and power, it's easy to get stepped on - especially if you are among the elderly and the terminally ill. For young Onmyouji Subaru Sumeragi, every soul, living or dead, deserves to be treated with equal dignity. Battling evil spirits is one thing, but when your enemy is the corruption of modern civilization, knowings what's the right things to do isn't as as clear-cut as good and evil.
