When Kanata Sorami was all alone at a young age as a result of war, she found inspiration in a trumpeter she met. She decides to join the army and become a bugler in the Signal Corps.
After a cease-fire during a long war, as a second-class bugler soldier, Kanata is reasigned to her new outpost at the 1121st Platoon in a stronghold Fortress in the little city of Seize, where other female soldiers reside to serve in a multi purpose task.
They must maintain the fortress, contribute to the traditions of the city since all are young females and the folklore tales that the young maidens keept a demon under control, and also to be prepared in case of a non probable attack due to the isolation of the city.
In Seize, she runs into Rio Kazumiya, she is a skilled trumpeter who becomes Kanata's instructor, and Kanata is thrilled by this because her bugle playing is extremely bad.
Rio tells her about the legend of the Fire Maiden. While looking at a bell owned by Rio's father, an owl steals it, forcing Rio to stop Kanata falling off the balcony trying to get it.
As Rio participates in the festival, Kanata decides to search for the bell. She finds it hanging off a ledge, but when she goes to get it she falls into the lake, where she sees the golden skeleton of a winged creature.

I should stop reading the summary of each anime... Everytime I read what the anime is all about, my head explodes due to improbability of the story line and plot.
