Madlax, Vol. 6 - Sacrifice
From the minds behind Noir, a compelling saga of two lives and the dark  circumstances surrounding their mysterious connection. The Gift  – Only those with the gift are able to read the Holy Words of Saruon. They are the pathway to the door of truth – the only means by which the reality of the event twelve years ago can be revealed. But, without the gift the Holy Words can cause grave danger and teeter the delicate balance of creation and circumstance. The gift is freedom, but only for a chosen few. It will allow Margaret and Madlax to finally discover who they are and where they belong. Only, Madlax does not possess the gift. She is something different. Different – Madlax can sense it. Madlax can feel the essence and touch the realm beyond reality. But, not completely. It is this confusing and frustrating state which has driven Madlax to discover her true existence. She has learned of her powerful yet cloudy connection to Margaret Burton. Drawn together, they have both searched along separate paths to arrive not only at the same destination but also at the same moment in time. It is a moment twelve years ago. It is a moment that will bring them closer together – and tear them further apart.
