Howl’s Moving Castle meets Castlevania.

To kill a monster… must we become one?

When the Rorren family - guardians of the magical barriers protecting Thornstead - vanish in a single night, the city is left defenceless. Years later, Lila, a young mage raised on a creed of peace, inherits the abandoned duty.

Saved from an ambush by Elion, a mysterious lord bound to a decaying manor deep in the forest, Lila is forced to remain by his side. As nights of shared stories draw them closer, she begins to sense the darkness he carries—and the choice waiting for her.

Aglow is a gothic fantasy anime graphic novel about legacy, forbidden love, and the monsters we awaken when duty demands it.
