Hinoto is a small, teenaged-sized girl. She has lived for many years underneath the Diet Building in Tokyo, using her dreamwalking abilities to shape the destiny of Japan. She tells fortunes for some of Japan's most powerful leaders. Hinoto is blind, and she communicates through telepathy. Her dreamwalking abilities include forseeing the future, entering other peoples dreams, and recalling the past. She has chosen to side herself with the Dragon of Heaven, and gather the Seven Seals. The following is an excerpt from Sorata's description of Hinoto, book 4. It has been edited for length.
SORATA : Well, we've eaten yaki-niku, our stomachs are full; will you guide us now? Miss.
ARASHI : To where?
SORATA : Grandfather "Stargazer" at Koya said: "The center of the Japanese politics." The place which is one of the five most spiritually screwed-up places in Japan. The Diet Building. The "Dreaming Princess" lives underneath it. Kamui. This princess will probably tell you the rest. You're still hesitating? Is it OK for you to take Kamui and I to the princess, beneath here? Don't worry, don't worry. The Princess already knows that I'll show up with Kamui. After all, she's the "Dreaming Princess" who moves the Japanese politics from behind the scenes.
Unlike Hinoto, Kanoe has the body of an extremely sexy and mature woman. She works as the secretary to the governor of Tokyo. Kanoe has chosen to ally herself with the Dragon of Earth, and gather the Seven Minions. Like her older sister Hinoto, Kanoe's dreamwalking abilities include the ability to enter other peoples' dreams, and the ability to recall the past. She cannot forsee the future, yet she can shadow her sister while Hinoto views the future, thus viewing the future through Hinoto.
