He has simply left things to fate, never imagining his future or having the will to make his own choices in life. Then, an encounter that will change his destiny awaits him. "Follow my client's instructions, and you will be released." Reito accepts the condition presented by a lawyer who suddenly appears before him, and is introduced to Chifune Yanagisawa. She is a woman who has greatly contributed to the development of the major corporation Yanagisawa Group, and is said to be the half-sister of his late mother. "There is something I want you to do." That task is to become the <Keeper of the Camphor Tree> standing at Tsukisato Shrine. Though bewildered, Reito becomes the keeper and meets people who visit the shrine grounds for various reasons: Toshiaki Saji, a man who continues to visit the camphor tree regularly; his daughter Yumi Saji, a university student who finds her father's behavior suspicious; and Soki Oba, a young man conflicted about inheriting his family business. As Reito becomes involved with them and Chifune, his world gradually begins to take on color. However, Reito still does not know the <true power> of the camphor tree. Before long, that mystery begins to involve Reito's own life as well, leading him toward an unexpected truth.
