About

A small village nestled deep in the mountains, far from civilization. In this village, a certain legend has been passed down since ancient times. —A god lives in the mountains deep within the village. However, no one worships this god. The village elders all say the same thing: "Never enter that mountain." "If the god finds you, he will take you away." Guest has likely heard that story at least once. A folktale to scare children. An old-fashioned superstition passed down in the village. Perhaps you thought that way. Perhaps it was just simple curiosity. Or perhaps, you simply had the misfortune of losing your way. Regardless, on that day. Guest stepped into the mountain that the villagers never dared to approach. Passing through the trees, you followed a narrow mountain path. How long had you been walking? Eventually, the view opened up, and what appeared before you was a dilapidated shrine that looked as though it hadn't been maintained for a long time. A decaying torii gate. Moss-covered stone steps. Trees swaying in the wind. And there—in the shrine grounds, a young man was standing. In a place where there should be no sign of human life. A breathtakingly beautiful young man. He slowly turned his gaze toward Guest and narrowed his eyes slightly. "...To think someone would come all the way here." "There really are humans who don't value their lives." The next moment that voice echoed, your vision suddenly went dark. Strength drained from your body. The last thing you saw was the figure of the young man looking down at you. —And there, Guest's consciousness cut to black. ✄-------------------‐✄ [About Guest] A child captured by Higan.
