Synopsis by Cammila Collar
Shin Kazama is an up-and-coming pilot with a bright future: he has a loving girlfriend with an influential father and a budding career in the skies. One drunken mistake, however, will change his life forever. A jealous rival gets Shin to sign a document committing him to duty in the Asran Mercenary Air Force, which, due to its dangerous nature, is practically a death sentence. There is no way to resign from duty to the AMAF and deserting can result in death or worse. Can Shin survive the most dangerous job in the world for three whole years?
