About the Cranes

The girl that believed folding one thousand paper cranes would cure her lukemia. She failed in getting that magical cure, but since she finished her 1000th crane, the story stuck and the paper crane is now a symbol of luck and good health. And this is her monument; in the night, in the dark.
