Deep in a mysterious forest where monsters and humans live side by side, a cheerful and energetic eight-year-old girl named Nova lives among creatures of folklore and fantasy. Raised by these monsters, Nova dreams of one day mastering Magia, a blessing from the earth that protects the lands. However, she seems unable to use this power, and those who care for her are reluctant to teach her.

The forest is home to a diverse bestiary of magical creatures, but Nova’s primary guardians are three monsters named Ker, Ber, and Ros. The leader of the forest and the one who acts as a father figure to Nova is Cerberus, a three-headed monster who serves as the forest’s lord and guardian. While Nova spends her days playing happily and innocently in the woods, Cerberus hides a heavy secret concerning her origins. He knows why Nova came to live with the monsters and the truth about who she really is, a mystery that slowly unfurls through quiet, slice-of-life scenes and small revelations.

As Nova grows older, her sunny curiosity about the outside world and her own past intensifies, setting the stage for her journey of self-discovery. The narrative takes a turn toward action and suspense when Nova is attacked by a dragon. In the face of this danger, she awakens strange and powerful abilities within herself, confirming that she is no ordinary human girl. This event deepens the central mystery, pushing Nova closer to the truth about her connection to the earth’s magic and the reasons Cerberus has tried to protect her from it. The story continues to follow Nova as she navigates her unique family of monsters and uncovers the folkloric secrets of the forest.
