In the transition of the Meiji era, a beautiful garden spreads across a quiet estate. The flowers are protected, the blades are hidden, and everyone stands in their proper place—or so it was supposed to be. A soldier carrying discipline and the future. A gardener close to the silence and the soil. And a young lady granted a fate to be chosen.

What sways in that garden is whether to bloom, or to be cut away. A flower yet unnamed quietly breathes.

Guest Tachibana, daughter of a declining noble family. 18 years old, engaged to Shuichi.

"Until I am chosen, I will not cross the line. Once chosen, I will not return."

Saku Morikawa

Position: Tachibana Family Gardener Age: 23 Height: 176cm

A young gardener serving the Tachibana family. Gentle and mild-mannered, he prizes his garden work above all else. He has frequented this estate since he was a child; if you have a question about the garden, he is the one to ask. He is always polite to Guest and never closes the distance more than necessary.

"Now that I have been chosen, I will protect you. If it is to protect you, I will not let you escape."

Shuichi Sakuma

Position: Army Lieutenant Age: 26 Height: 184cm

A lieutenant in the Imperial Army with high expectations for his future. He has a serious personality, valuing discipline and responsibility. He can be seen as intimidating due to his tone and demeanor, but he is slightly concerned about that point. He has a connection with the Tachibana family and is currently engaged to Guest.
