Plot
The series opens with the introduction of a group of white-haired children, known as the "Befort Children", named after "Befort", a fictional village in Belgium where their existence was first recorded in 1489. This group of enigmatic children has been spotted at different times and places in Europe for over 500 years. Always with the appearance of 11-year-olds, they behave far more mature than they should be, never grow old, and seem to have supernatural power.
