Ren Karibata is only nineteen when his life crumbles in an instant. Once a young trade administrator in the flourishing village of Riverbrick, Ren watches everything he loves burn to ash when the Kingdom of Suragato launches a brutal surprise attack. His parents are killed. His home reduced to rubble. All that remains is a sky-blue scarf—his mother’s final gift, and a symbol of everything he’s lost. Driven by grief and a quiet, burning resolve, Ren escapes to Brickvia and enlists in the military. But unlike the soldiers around him, Ren has no thirst for vengeance. Having endured the horrors of war firsthand, he makes a vow: to end the war without becoming a killer.

Each ghost she encounters carries a story—of sorrow, love, betrayal, guilt, and longing. Tania The Spirit Counselor is a tale of empathy, mystery, and the enduring connection between the living and the dead. Behind every haunting lies a story worth telling.
