Synopsis

In 19th century Europe, then again in the 20th century on a south-eastern archipelago…

Over the course of many years in many different lands a group of mysterious children called “The Children of B?fort” have been seen time and time again. They spend long months and years traveling from place to place searching for one particular girl.

In the 21st century, a boy named Thoma lives on a small southern island called Papin Island. He meets a girl named Helga who is captured and taken back to the orphanage she ran away from on nearby Chikao Island. But Thoma, together with Helga’s young friend Chitto, devises a plan to free her. However, when they get to Chikao they find that government agents have come to the island searching for an escaped prisoner!

Elsewhere, Detective Cooks, a police officer assigned to the case of a missing child, is intrigued by a connection he finds to records and events dealing with “The Children of B?fort.”
