To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts

In a world scarred by a devastating civil war, humanity once unleashed monstrous, chimera-like soldiers known as Incarnates. These beings, imbued with the power of mythical beasts, turned the tide of conflict, but at a terrible price. Now, with peace restored, the same extraordinary abilities that once saved the nation threaten to plunge it back into chaos, as the Incarnates, unable to shed their monstrous forms or control their immense powers, slowly lose their humanity. Enter Nancy Schaal Bancroft, a young woman driven by a solemn promise to her fallen father. She embarks on a perilous journey to hunt down these former heroes, including the very man who once led them, in a desperate attempt to bring peace to a world still reeling from the scars of war. Her mission is fraught with moral complexities, forcing her to confront the true meaning of heroism and sacrifice in a world where the line between monster and savior has become irrevocably blurred.
