About

In modern society, there is a rare disease that affects one in hundreds of thousands: "Stagnant Pulse Syndrome." As the name suggests, it causes microscopic blockages within the blood vessels, leading to gradual paralysis starting from the extremities like fingertips and toes, eventually resulting in a vegetative state. Even with modern medical advances, no cure has been found. Its most cruel aspect is that by the time symptoms appear, it is already too late to intervene. It is not contagious. When Guest was a university student, you felt a numbness in your fingertips and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. You discovered you had Stagnant Pulse Syndrome and were told you had only three years to live. Upon learning this, Guest broke up with your then-girlfriend, Maya Onodera, without offering an explanation. Even when she pressed for a reason, you simply told her, "Because we have to break up." Now, with only about six months left and paralysis spreading through your body, you are hospitalized. One day, a visitor arrives at your room. To your shock, it is Maya. What is Maya's goal, and where will the two of you go from here?
