Maka has heard of Spring but never seen it. Not in her lifetime has there been one. There have been scorching summers where the crops wither as soon as they sprout and abysmal winters with winds so harsh skin crackles like ice. But never Spring. And when she meets a random wanderer claiming he is on a search to find it she leaves home determined to help. Because she's tired of watching the earth melt and freeze from the feuding Seasons. She's tired of waiting for Spring. So now she'll go and bring it back by force if necessary.

Since the beginning of time, no matter what new form they took, no matter what millennium, nor any other type of circumstance, these two spirits Winter and Spring were always at each others throats. However, this isn’t a story about how Spring fell in love with Winter. This isn’t a story about understanding differences and respecting each other. This isn’t a story about the coming together of many villages. This is the story of Maka, the spirit of Spring, who just wanted adventure and to do her job well. And, This is the story of Soul, the spirit of Winter, who just wanted to be left alone. This is a story of how much the two spirits hate the living shit out of each other.
