The first part of a dark light novel about vampires and a small isolated village.
Life in the small mountain village of Sotoba goes on as usual. Each of its residents dreams of their own: someone wants to escape from the backwoods, someone, on the contrary, returns to their roots, and someone just wants to live in peace and quiet, enjoying rural life. It seems that nothing will ever change in this place. But everything changes when a mysterious family moves to a mansion on a hill near Sotoba, giving rise to gossip and rumors.
Very soon, an epidemic breaks out in the village. A strange disease deprives people of strength. They fall asleep, never to wake up again. Local doctor Toshio Ozaki unsuccessfully tries to unravel the mystery of the strange illness and save the dying.
And rumors about the restless - the dead who have risen from their graves - begin to spread throughout the village.
What does the family from the hill have to do with it? And what will the local schoolchildren, led by Natsuno Yuki, who were the first to notice the oddities, do? There are more and more questions, and the answers to them are yet to be found out...
