Bøger i Lullaby of the Dawn serien

Night after night, Elva steps forth into the black sea, sword in hand, to drive back the creatures that surge from the waves. Elva is one of the 'kannagi, ' warrior priests chosen by the divine to protect the island. With his snow-white hair, unaging youth, and black-stained limbs -- proof of the corruption that gradually takes the life of every kannagi -- the local people fear and shun him... at least until his path crosses with that of a boy named Alto. Enraptured by Elva's strength and lonely soul, Alto swears to serve him and free him from his cursed fate. After eight long years, Alto has grown into a capable and fearless young man, unwavering in his devotion to his kannagi. Elva had long ago resigned himself to an early death -- but somehow, Alto's presence seems to be gradually healing him of the black sea's corruption...

Elva is a battle shaman whose life is eroded bit by bit every time he drives back monsters that emerge from the black sea. Indignant when he sees this, a young boy named Alto is determined to find a cure and stay by Elva's side. After 8 long years, Alto has become a fearless young man, though he hides his love deep inside. And despite only expecting to live for a few more years, Elva seems to be healing as he spends time by Alto's side. Awarded first place in the Best Comic category in the 2022 Chill Chill BL Awards.
