Utahime

Once, there was a land where peace was safeguarded by a king who reigned from the heart of the empire. Villagers supported the king through their songs, yet they lived as if in captivity, destined to sing ceaselessly. The power of singing passed only from mother to daughter. By royal decree, singers were confined in towers to perpetually sing lullabies. A village without its song faced destruction. Kain and Maria, siblings with a singer mother, faced this reality. Upon learning the village's use of singers, Kain shields his sister Maria to save her from such a fate.
