Lawrence, a traveling merchant searching for profit, finds a naked girl with the ears and tail of a wolf asleep in his cart. Her name is Holo – a harvest goddess with an untamed beast lurking inside who longs to return to her beloved northern home.

Along their path, the riches of happiness shall be reaped, even as the bankruptcy which dwells in the human heart is exposed.
