Imagine the "Light" and "Dark" sides of "The Force" were partially-sentient extra-dimensional life-forces engaged in a Secret War in our world -- A war whose warriors consist of people recruited through infection by either the Sacred Fire or the Corruption. These Awakened have been given tremendous supernatural powers but at an equally tremendous cost. Welcome to the Secret War. Until The Corruption infected her neighbor, Hikari Miyabe's greatest concern was preparing for her high school entrance examination. But then her neighbor killed her family and infected her. When one of the Awakened arrives and cleanses her with the Sacred Fire, Hikari finds herself caught in a secret war between supernatural forces that consumes the lives of everyone it touches. This is a 4-part novella covering the back story of Hikari Miyabe, a major character in the forthcoming novel The Awakened.
