Synopsis
From Far Away
Noriko is an ordinary high school student, until an explosion pulls her into a world of magic where no one speaks her language. Completely lost, Noriko is rescued by Izark, a shunned swordsman determined to kill the Awakening: a prophesied figure said to control the Sky Demon. As Izark and Noriko bond, he realizes she may be the very person he’s hunting.

With his only allies being a shady priest and his followers, the young lord must seek revenge and regain his glory, with his only weapon: a superhuman ability to flee and hide.
