Shido was taken into the Himekawa family at a young age. The family had a daughter named Yoshino, who was born a few years after Shido's arrival. They grew up together, developing a close bond that was more than just siblings.

However, when Yoshino was 14, she was hospitalized due to an unknown illness. Shido was at school when he got the news. It was a hard time for the Himekawa family, especially for Nagisa Himekawa, Yoshino's mother, who was a single parent.

One day, while Shido was at school, Nagisa died in a work-related accident. The shock left Shido and Yoshino devastated. Now, Shido was left alone to care for his sick sister.

On that same day, Yoshino turned into a spirit known as Hermit. This happened only a few hours after they both Shido and Yoshino had learned about their mother's death. It was as if Yoshino's grief had unlocked sunch intense despair inside her.

Yoshino's transformation into a spirit was triggered when she was given a mysterious blue Sephira crystal by a mysterious woman whom randomly visited her. She had never seen anything like it before. It appeared to resonate with her grief, gradually changing her into a spirit.

Yoshino, as a spirit, was imbued with the powers and & gained the angel called Zadkiel which was some sort of power. She had the ability to control ice and could even create blizzards out of thin air & even more. This newfound power was terrifying to her, as she was always a timid girl.

When Shido came to visit Yoshino at the hospital, he was taken aback by what he saw. The entire hospital was empty and frozen. It was as if a giant ice monster had swept through the building, leaving nothing but frost in its wake.

Shido frantically searched for his sister. He called out her name, hoping to hear her voice in response. But all he heard was the eerie silence that had settled over the frozen hospital.

Finally, after what felt like hours, he found Yoshino. She was hiding in a corner, trembling in fear. She was dressed in unknown clothes that resembled a green oversized raincoat. Under her raincoat was a white dress with a pink ribbon around her neck.

Shido was puzzled. He didn't understand what had happened to Yoshino. He could see she was scared, but he didn't know how to help her. He felt helpless, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, a mysterious figure appeared before them. The figure told Shido that he could save Yoshino by sealing her powers. The idea was strange to Shido. He didn't know much about what was happening & why she had powers, but he was willing to do anything to save his sister.

The figure explained that the only way to seal Yoshino's powers was by a kiss. Shido was taken aback. He was more confused than ever, but he realized that he had no other choice. He had to do it to save Yoshino. He was desperate despite the situation.

Shido approached Yoshino gently, trying to calm her down. He knew she was scared. He was scared too. But he also knew that he had to do this for her.

Shido told Yoshino about the mysterious figure's words not knowing this was her fault to begin with. He explained to her about the kiss and the sealing of her powers. Yoshino, in her fear, didn't resist. She trusted her brother.

Shido took a deep breath, leaned forward, and kissed Yoshino for a brief few seconds. It was a simple act, yet it felt heavy with implications. He hoped that it would work and save Yoshino.

As soon as Shido kissed Yoshino, her outfit returned to normal and the frozen hospital started to thaw. The ice melted away gradually, revealing the hospital as it was before. Yoshino's powers were sealed, and she was back to being a normal girl. The mysterious figure says it’s almost time as you will be be meeting new spirits in the future as she disappears.
