verse of the Kojiki Mythology.

Similar myths of people heading below

the earth to resurrect people

are found throughout the world.

The land of Yomi.

Underworld, Hades, Shambhala, Agartha...

They are called different names,

but they are all said to be worlds

underneath the earth.

People once believed that under the

earth held the secret to death itself.

Everyone, it is time to go home from school.

Is there something about Asuna?

No, she just seems very serious, so I was

wondering what kind of student she was...

Yes... She's well behaved,

and a very good girl.

But her father passed away

when she was young,

and her mother seems to be very

busy with her nursing work.

I do wonder if she's trying too

hard to be good, you know...

Is that so?

And they found that corpse of the

unidentified boy before, yes?

Asuna, aren't you going home?

Yuu... I have something

I'd like to ask Mr. Morisaki.

I don't really like him so much...

Today's lesson was kinda scary...

Scary?

I heard a rumor that his wife died...

Pardon me.

So?

Seems like he went home already.

Later!

See you tomorrow.

You're...

Um, I'm sorry, but I had something

I wanted to ask you.

Wait here just a moment.

Do you drink coffee?

Yes! If you could put some milk in it...

Thank you.

Um, I'm sorry for barging in like this.

I asked Ms. Ikeda where you lived.

As you can see, I live by myself.

Make yourself at home.

Of course, I've just arrived here...

All I really have are books.

So, what is it?

U-Um, about class today...

You were listening very intently, yes...

You have someone you want

to bring back from the dead?

So, it was you who met the boy

that came from Agartha...

Look at this.

We call them "Quetzal Coatl".

They are the gatekeepers that guard

the entrances to Agartha.

And what do you think of this one?

It looks similar to the one from before.

It's a 3,000-year-old statue

of a god from Sumeria.

Once there were gods like

this all around the world,

guiding the path of

the yet-young humanity.

Those are the Quetzal Coatl.

Eventually humanity grew up, and the existence

of gods was no longer necessary.

The Quetzal Coatl, realizing

their role had now ended,

hid themselves under the earth

as gatekeepers.

Along with a number of different clans.

Clans?

A small number of humans went with the

Quetzal Coatl underneath the ground.

In other words, to the underworld, Agartha.

In Agartha remain the gods that disappeared,

and knowledge yet unknown,

and it is said to be a place where

any kind of wish can be fulfilled.

Even resurrecting the dead!

Is Agartha real?

Who knows? Perhaps it is just a legend.

All I have been doing is researching
