Summary:
After the Great war that resulted in Aizen's defeat and escape, Soul Society is busy rebuilding itself, as well as tracking down Aizen and what's left of his minions; peace has resided for ten years with many things has changed and many things has remained the same. Renji has become a captain of the Ninth Division, but lost his left arm. Hitsugaya has grown into the form of a young man, and adopted the heavy drinking of his former vice-captain Matsumoto. Rukia has become the first shinigami to call the human world her home despite retaining her shinigami status. Kurosaki Ichigo is still working as a substitute shinigami, but also helping his father at the clinic—having graduated from pharmacy school.
Akiko Dominique Massaile is an accomplished writer and scholar who has worked for twenty years for her success. Then one night, when her life has finally turned perfect, and the fruit of her labor harvested, she crosses over into Bleach's world—meeting the shinigami of Soul Society who at first think that she is from the human world. Upon her arrival, Dominique is put under Kuchiki Byakuya's protection and observation, for the Commander thinks that this is more than just a coincidence. The mysterious arrival of Dominique starts another saga that will explore the lives of most Bleach characters after the Great War, as well as some of what has happened.
This is an epic about another Great War, about a bond between two characters—Dominique and Byakuya—who are from two different worlds, and about redemption and atonement. This is a novel born from Bleach.
