Miaka and Taka, Tamahome’s reborn out‑of‑the‑book self, return to the Universe of the Four Gods to try to restore Tamahome’s memories to Taka. Their plan proves more difficult than it seems when the evil Tenkou appears to rain on their parade. He thwarts most of their attempts to recover Taka’s memories and uses his newfound power to summon the gods outside the book.
