The narrative unfolds with Gaea's family dynamics, her academic pursuits, and her interactions with friends, particularly her boyfriend Marc and her new roommate Himiko. As the story progresses, Gaea learns about a Grimoire, a book of dark magic that holds significant power and is sought after by malevolent forces, including a Night Witch. The Grimoire is revealed to be linked to a ghost named Douglas Blanchard, a former pianist who died in the restaurant that Gaea's sister, Vicky, plans to open. The ghost's spirit becomes protective of the restaurant, and Gaea and her friends feel its presence.
