Plot


In the distant future, a calamity has changed human physiology so that humans will instantly combust when in the presence of fire. As a result, human civilization collapsed until they discover an alternative fuel source derived from the blood of demonic Fire Fiends. As a result, the elite Fire Hunters are formed, whose sole purpose is to hunt down Fire Fiends and harvest their blood, fueling a new industrial revolution.
Touko, a young girl who lives in a remote village, wanders into the forest and stumbles into a battle between a Fire Hunter and a Fire Fiend. The Fire Hunter is mortally wounded saving Touko, with his last words telling her the name of his dog, Kanata. Due to being responsible for the Fire Hunter's death, Touko is tasked by her village to take Kanata and the slain Fire Hunter's belongings to the Capital and return them to his family. Feeling responsible as well, Touko embarks on the long and dangerous journey to the Capital to fulfill her duty.
