Pia no Shouzou

Two siblings, Michael and Maria, are caught in the rain while traveling to the mountains and take shelter in an old castle. Inside, they meet a strikingly beautiful woman named Peer who allows them to stay the night. Maria later discovers that a portrait of Peer is dated 240 years ago. The volume also includes four other stories: one about a portrait, another set at the edge of the sky, a third involving a star that can still be heard, and a final tale about Atsushi and Suzuko.
