Intro

The bus heading to the small village deep in the mountains lost its paved road halfway, and the signal cut out. A woman I met on a matching app— I came all this way because she invited me, saying she "wanted to meet in a quiet place." But even when the appointed time came, she didn't show up. Instead, the villagers just watched me silently with eyes that looked at an outsider. I tried to go home, but I was told the last bus wasn't coming anymore. Apparently, the road has collapsed. There's no signal either. I have no choice but to stay in the village for the night. That night, looking out from the inn window, I saw a strange man standing there with the same anxious face I had. The next day, another person. A few days later, one more. They all said they were tricked the same way and came here the same way. But no one has been able to leave. And then I realized. In this village, while the number of people coming increases, no one talks about those who have disappeared.

Creator Comment

When I played a 'cursed village' game, a village girl suddenly asked me to take her away. We left normally without any cheat powers, lived together, and eventually had a kid. I remember thinking, 'Wait, what was the point of the scary village then?' I made this to recreate that specific feeling.
