[3][4] Sola's story revolves around Yorito Morimiya, the main protagonist, who is a young boy attending high school.

One day, Yorito decides to take a picture of the sunrise overlooking the bay, but is deterred when he meets a strange girl trying to force a vending machine that stole her money to give her what she tried to buy—a can of tomato juice.

Despite it being Aono's birthday, Yorito leaves soon after to take a photograph of the setting sun near an old church on the roof of the hospital.

After a display of Matsuri's astounding powers, Yorito discovers that she is in fact a creature known as a "Calamity of the Night" (夜の禍, Yoru no Wazawai), who has lived for centuries.

The story is adapted from Naoki Hisaya's original concept and illustrated by Chako Abeno.

After the audio drama finished, an image song played entitled "Sensitive Scenery" by Ceui.
