Born from the corpses of fallen soldiers, the "Undying" are near-immortal beings created solely to serve as weapons. However, once the War ended, their usefulness waned, and the Church initiated the Undying Hunt, ruthlessly slaughtering them. Eighty years have passed since then; now, few Undying remain, and those who do are relentlessly pursued by the Church. Kieli, an orphan at a religious boarding school, has the unique ability to see spirits. Alienated from her classmates, she spends her days conversing with Becca, the spirit of a girl who once lived in her room. One day, Kieli encounters Harvey, a mysterious and aloof individual and one of the few surviving Undying. In an unexpected turn of events, Harvey saves Kieli from being hit by a train, putting himself at risk in the process. Intrigued by Harvey, Kieli decides to accompany him on his mission to fulfill a promise to the Corporal, the spirit of a soldier who died in the War and has been possessing a radio—his vow to reunite with his mortal remains. As they journey together, Kieli uncovers that beyond Harvey's seemingly ruthless exterior lies a kind and thoughtful man haunted by the horrors of war. As they grow closer and interact more deeply, they form a bond that they can cherish forever, and Harvey may finally rediscover the warmth he once lost. "Kieli: Shisha-tachi wa Kouya ni Nemuru" was published in English by Yen Press on April 22 and October 28, 2008.
