The shape-shifters include Tsume, a cynical criminal; eager, naive Toboe; perpetually hungry Hige; and charismatic Kiba, who's seeking "Rakuen," the prophesied paradise. Tied to his search are the Moon Flowers, and Cheza, a girl somehow created from those flowers. Scientist Cher Degré studies Cheza in her laboratory--until the flower-girl is kidnapped by a mysterious figure who looks like the Phantom of the Opera in drag. Complicating matters still further is Quent, a hunter bent on exterminating all wolf-humans.
