Description
Colio Tonies, transformed into a "Meat" by the Shindeki Church—a branch of the antagonistic Church of Drowning in God’s Grace—is implanted with a chest explosive and stripped of emotional autonomy, engineered solely for suicide missions against the Armed Librarians, with Hamyuts Meseta as his primary target. His existence as a disposable weapon initially manifests as apathy and eroded humanity, defined by resigned acceptance of his fate.

Aboard the Silver Smoke, a transport ship for Meats, Colio discovers fragments of a book authored by Shiron Byacornise, a prophetess executed three centuries prior as a witch despite saving her kingdom from plague. Ostracized for her visions and manipulated by the Church, Shiron’s life mirrors Colio’s subjugation. Through her writings, he uncovers her foresight of his existence—a bond transcending time, where Shiron’s love for the future Colio kindles his capacity for empathy and self-determination.

Compelled to gather more fragments, Colio’s programmed mission falters as he confronts the ethics of his role. Torn between assassinating Hamyuts and honoring Shiron’s legacy, he rebels against the Church’s control, fueled by their intangible yet profound connection. This emotional catalyst reignites his humanity, transforming him from a weaponized puppet to an agent of sacrificial love.

Colio’s defiance against the Church’s True Men, including Sigal, retroactively empowers Shiron’s past resistance, forging a stable time loop. Her foresight of his rebellion bolsters her resolve, intertwining their struggles across centuries to dismantle the Church’s schemes. In a final confrontation, Colio’s sacrifice ensures Shiron’s legacy endures, their souls reuniting in Ruruta Coozancoona’s metaphysical realm—a sanctuary beyond temporal confines.

His arc navigates predestination and free will, subverting nihilistic conditioning through a bond that defies time. As both pawn and disruptor, Colio embodies the tension between identity and coercion, his redemption underscoring the transformative power of connection amid cycles of control and rebellion.
