Kanna, Kenji’s niece, is now in high school and she resents that the history textbooks tell a fabricated account of the fateful day. She is forced to participate in the Friend Land program to be re-educated when she is deemed to be anti-social. While in the program, Kanna uncovers clues to Friend’s real identity, and the shocking discovery of The New Book of Prophecies!
