Kakucho and Izana vow to create a new era
Young Izana and Kakucho rush out the doors of the institution, marveling at the freshly piled snow. After Izana breaks the rules of their snowball fight and accidentally destroys his snowman, Kakucho storms off to play by himself. Izana convinces him to stay, and they build a snow fort together. When they finish, Izana says that it will be their kingdom's castle. Nestling inside, Izana draws out a plan to create their kingdom. He will be the king, while his servant, Kakucho, will fight for their kingdom. This kingdom will be a haven for orphans like themselves. He tells Kakucho they cannot afford to lose now, and Kakucho happily agrees.
As they lie in the snow, Kakucho asks what their kingdom will be named, Izana draws from the novel Journey to the West, dubbing their kingdom "Tenjiku". The two of them vow to create a great era. Kakucho tearfully remembers this as he lies next to Izana's body, mirroring his flashback.
