I'm looking for the title of a manga and this is what I recall: There a orphaned older brother (think about 22-24) & younger sister..(16-18). it's historically set, but not so much Japanese, their clothes look like Robin Hood or Princess Bride era... He (I think) is a woodcutter, while she runs a hostel type place that serves food. A towns person goes missing and she subsequently sees her brother is the one who does it. He's like a body snatcher, and I believe he eats the person - but once you eat them you "become them". in body & mind. It then doesn't have to feed for a while. In the meanwhile, (brother is still missing) and as she's here alone and unprotected and this creepy aristocrat's spoiled bully son takes an interest in the girl and wants to marry her (forcefully)..... anyone recall this story?

sounds like Almadianos Eiyuuden , though i never recalls anything like the brother was missing. well, maybe some more information would be helpful.

Be kind or get banned

Thanks for the response but that wasn't it. The "brother" goes missing because he, as an alien eats a new person and then becomes that person... so his old being is erased & discarded = which if you think about it, who knows when her real brother was consumed by this alien because technically she realizes that her brother or who she thought was her brother was really just the alien having consumed her true brother a while back... so this alien resists eating her, as iikes her?t

I'm still looking for this.... ?
