Daemons of the Shadow Realm

In a remote village where ancient customs still hold sway, twins Yuru and Asa were born under unusual circumstances—one destined for the daylight world, the other confined to shadow. Years have passed, and while Yuru has grown into a skilled hunter who knows every path through the surrounding wilderness, his sister Asa remains hidden away, her existence known only to a privileged few who depend on her mysterious abilities. Their isolated world is shattered when strangers arrive from beyond the mountains, bringing with them violence and questions that the village has never had to face. As chaos erupts and familiar faces disappear into the smoke, Yuru finds himself hunted by forces he cannot understand, forcing him to flee the only home he has ever known. His flight leads him to Dera, a traveling merchant who has long moved between the village and the outside world. Together, they must navigate a path through dangers both human and otherworldly, as Yuru begins to uncover the truth about his village's secrets and his own family's hidden past. The journey ahead will challenge everything he believes about his world, his sister, and himself.
