Takara Cosmos was once called a “Queen” in the Japanese Equestrian World. Unfortunately for this champion, the spotlight of fame slowly faded from sight.  Five years ago, Takara Cosmos went blind due to an undiagnosed illness. A world without light is full of fear-and uncertainly. However, a friendly young voice reaches out to touch her heart and keep her spirit alive. Takara Cosmos finds a kindred spirit in equestrian club student, Kanae Minato. Finally, a new life emerges from the darkness. Takara Cosmos gives birth to Moska, a firly, who will carry on the traditions of this former champion. This is a story of sadness and triumph against all odds. The relationship between horse and rider is explored as a young student gains the respect of an equestrian champion gone blind. As Kanae and Cosmos perform in the Dressage event, the training and trust they share is displayed for all to see .
