In the eyes of the divine, a human is just that- a human. In a world where Heaven is locked off to humans, magic and aspirations are the only comfort against the creeping dread on the backs of everybody. Nell Moren gets to experience this injustice first hand, only moments after he was ejected from the beating heart of Jeti City onto the freezing ground. Communication, no matter how difficult it may be for him, is the only hope of warmth. Ame Nishimura, a tall playful man from L'eau ropes him into trouble- a trouble that was worth the price. He meets more and more people, gaining more and more questions until the breaking point is hit. A golden throne calls out to Nell, with promises of comfort, power, and answers. But the qualifications aren't met. To sit on the throne, Nell must complete his trials. And the reward is colder than he could ever imagine.
