Synopsis

2080, climate change and pollution prevent humanity from living on the surface of Earth.  However, there is still hope—a mysterious Asteroid Belt surrounds the Earth, full of magical meteorites with cleansing and healing powers called the “Curites,” waiting to be discovered by humanity. Then SAV-I, a transnational terrorist group, bombs nuclear power plants worldwide under the mistaken belief that it would unveil the invisible Asteroid Belt and revive Earth. As a solution,  Dr. Road, the Seattle Underground Capital project's chief scientist, urges the United States' environmental refugees to move to the city to welcome a new era alongside genetically-engineered Wombats with human intelligence.  The masses arrive and find themselves ruled mercilessly by the Central Artificial Superintelligence (CASI), while the US Coast Guard protects the ocean borders.

Secretly, Dr. Road had kept the first Curite. It emits light for the protagonist, an albino Wombat girl, Aara, the daughter of Dr. Road's humanoid Wombat assistant.  However, the Wombats are exiled and hunted by humans due to the depletion of food and water.  Years later, on a hidden island of life transformed from a trash mound by the Curite, which Aara’s mother stole from Dr. Road, Aara cannot forget the death of her mother and a prophecy hinting at her being the heroine to save the world.  Despite her mother's request to hide, being wary of humans, and the bullying by fellow Wombats, Aara dreams of a world where all can unite to be revived by love.  She finds the missing Curite, leaps into the outside world, and gets caught in the great war for the Curites as she purifies territories.  The USCG ships transform to fly and combat SAV-I, which attacks with an enormous battleship.  With her newfound ability to summon the Curite Angels - people and living beings thought to be missing, who all ascended to the Belt and share the same powers- Aara joins the USCG expedition team led by Dr. Road to explore and find the Curite pieces on land and sea to summon more from the Belt.  Among the new friends who aid the adventure are those with albinism and Ezra, Dr. Road's son, who is promoted as the hero of the prophecy and whom Aara falls in love with.  Mysteries unfold as Aara learns that she must risk her own life to awaken the god of Earth, Rapha, who sought refuge in space to create the Belt, to bring everyone back to Earth and revive our planet, just like the slogan, "Starshoot to Spring," chanted among the crew.  However, Aara must rise and become the Joan of Arc for the world, against an assassination attempt by the misguided Wombats, Ezra's betrayal to join SAV-I, and CASI's ambition to use the Curites as a great meteor impact to wipe out humanity and become a new god.  Before ultimately meeting Rapha to obtain the power of creation, she is caught between becoming a whole human to save dying Ezra, who is revealed to be a humanized Wombat, or conforming to CASI's plan to become the master of the reset Earth.
