Ginko’s path crosses that of a forsaken soul waiting along the shore, waiting for the young wife lost several years before. The two having been driven back home by difficult times, she had not abandoned her husband and instead strayed within a mysterious fog. And he, lacking proof as to his love's fate, settled into his wait. Yet as reason and purpose return at long last, so too the mysterious events preceding the fog. Prepared for the worst, Ginko accompanies the husband as they head out to sea to confront the mushi and the past.
