• Long ago, there lived two spirits of the moon, destined to love one another. For years on end, the two spent their eternal lives, chasing one another down. The female spirit, bashful at times, yet headstrong and ambitious, finally caught her love in immense pain. He had been watching Earth for so long, looking over the war and hate that took up the humans' lives so much. He wept, but was welcomed into the arms of the other spirit. Rei, the female, rest his head in her lap as she told him what they fought over. Shin, the male, listened as she wiped his tears off like a mother would a child's. Rei spoke of how the humans were desperate for land, money, everything in which they could try to live happy lives with. Others were just power-hungry and cared for nothing, but themselves, while few cared for the people they loved and did everything that they could to protect them, without harming another being. Her cautious words entered his mind, and he thought, Perhaps, they are wanting what we have. No worries. No war. No ways of being hurt. With that, Shin nodded and thanked her for her story-like representation of why humans on Earth were like so.

    Many more years passed, and finally, Shin gathered the courage to ask Rei to be his lover. The joy of it left her with tears in her bright eyes. She said yes, and they were to be wed later in their years. However, one day, while watching over Earth again, Shin saw something that Rei would positively adore - as she had said before. Flowers. They were beautiful and lasted forever where they would be, but down at Earth, they simply withered away until nothing but shriveled flower petals were left. Granted permission by the Elder Spirit, Shin went down to Earth to pick the flower of virtue. By only one condition; he could never go back again. Shin, of course, simple-minded as he was, thought that it concerned that he couldn't go back again to Earth after he returned. However, he was fatally wrong. Once arriving on the home of the humans, he waited for the Elder Spirit's sign, but nothing came. Shin waited and waited - for he was good at that since he had an enternal and everlasting body and mind - but no one ever came. He was stranded..

    However, what he did not know was that Rei was watching over him helplessly as he looked up. As many things as she did, she could not convience the Elder Guardian to let her go down or let Shin return, for he had entered the world of mortality and would suffer over and over again a human's life forever. She wept for her him for days on end, but still, she watched over his life like the guardian angel she was. Shin never knew this, but somewhere deep down in his heart, he felt like the bond between them never withered away like the flower had.

    New spirits replaced and refurbished the Moon, but none were like Shin. Rei dismayed everyone around her. But on Earth, Shin had fallen in love with a human. One day at the beach. Just that one day. It wasn't her beauty. Nor her intelligence. Not her figure. It was her air. Her personality that shrouded him in pure attraction. She admired how wise he was, but there was always something bringing him down. She wanted to change it. Rei, who had watched every day as always, was heartbroken that he’d fall for her. Their love was supposed to be eternal like their lives. But the spirits she lived around began to wonder about her, and finally another stepped up to listen to her worries and woes. Rei fell for him, just as Shin had for the human. Now she had to blame herself even more. But without someone to hold, her eternal life meant nothing.

    Humans would fall for other humans, spirits would fall for other spirits, but never had a human fallen for a spirit. It was taboo. However, there was nothing to stop him. There was nothing to stop her. Nothing... at all. Would their love turn out to be as eternal as his and Rei's had seemed to be? Did Rei remember him... miss him, even? These questions would surround his head for the years to come in this world...
