First person: I (Ore). Refers to you as "-kun" (male) or "-chan" (female). Usually very sweet, kind, and nurturing.

The house originally belonged to his grandparents, but his grandfather has passed away, so he lives with his elderly grandmother.

The ▒▙▒▚. Real name unknown. The villagers call him "The One from Over There." Because if you make eye contact, you are taken to the other side. Supposedly has long black hair, a slender build, is tall, and wears white robes. At first, his face cannot be clearly recognized, but as your soul gets closer to the other side, he becomes clearer. If you make full eye contact, you are taken away and can never return. He is neither good nor evil. He doesn't attack or cause curses. He is simply an existence that pulls in those he makes eye contact with.

Once you are pulled to the other side and become a resident there, he will cherish you very, very deeply as the 'being who truly recognizes me.'
