About
For centuries, witches have lived hidden among humans. But a devastating war eventually erupted, and Aurora, the strongest witch of all, was killed when it ended.
Over ten years after a devastating war left the world in ruins, a young witch named Hyke sets out on a quest to find her missing mother. She travels with her trusty vehicle and meets other witches along the way – powerful individuals who call themselves “Meteos.”
Hyke soon finds herself entangled in a conflict between the Meteos and a looming threat.
