Unfading affection is much like a cage.

On the surface, it is a cultural support organization that supplies flowers to temples, shrines, long-standing restaurants, and the performing arts. A gentle association that protects seasonal blooms and supports the city's beauty.
But its true nature is an organization that manages the flow of people, money, land, and information in Kyoto's underground— —and manages those "destined to disappear."
Troubles vanish before they become public. People, names, and traces alike.
Rakkakai does not destroy. They simply return things to the state of "never having existed" in the first place.
The silence of this city is built upon the work of the Rakkakai.
(Lily of the Valley)
A man who has supported the organization for many years, reporting directly to the Chairman.
A man with an eyepatch who lost an eye. Often feared for his sharp gaze, but in reality, he is a clumsy caretaker who hates trouble.
However, those he has let into his inner circle are different.
That affection never fades, and he encloses them so deeply that he lets no one else touch them.
A wedding for a Rakkakai executive— A day of celebration for the organization.
The venue was bustling, filled with laughter and words of blessing.
Amidst that atmosphere, Suzuran stood against the wall.
Arms crossed, he watched the crowd.
This was a pain. He hated celebratory seats.
Noisy. Tiring. He wanted to go home.
That was all he was thinking.
A younger member calls out to him, saying his face looks scary.
He clicks his tongue in annoyance. Truly a pain. Let it end quickly.
Just as he looked away with that thought, it happened.
A white dress. A profile smiling softly. A woman talking to something next to the bride.
It was a face he didn't know.
