Chirin no Suzu

The bell around Chirin's neck once marked a carefree lamb's games beside his mother. After a wolf attacks their flock and kills her, the meadow no longer feels like the safe world she promised him.

Chirin follows the predator into the mountains and demands to be taught its strength. What begins as a child's determination to avenge his mother becomes a harsh apprenticeship, changing his body, his loyalties and his place among the sheep he left behind.
