Are the woes of the present meant to be endured for the promise of a better future or to atone for past wrongs? In a captivating epic of love, fate and faith, seven young people must struggle with this spiritual puzzle as their alien past lives threaten the future.

Mokuren awakens from a fever-induced coma a week after her attack, tormented by the realization that Shion lied to her when he said he loved her. After all, if he really did, her Kiche, the mystical mark on her forehead, would have disappeared. Even so, and even though he's now treating her like a sacred being instead of a fellow human, she can't stop loving him.

On Earth, Haruhiko tries to convince Alice that Rin needs and loves her . But Alice finds herself in deep trouble, and her disturbing dreams continue, showing her the end of Mokuren's life on the KK moon base…

There was some questionable/gross plot stuff in the first third of the book...Without spoiling I would have preferred that part of the storyline (throughout the series) to have gone in a different direction. Other than that, this volume picks up the pace again with some twists in the modern day part of the story.
