About

The traveling circus 'Carnea' wanders between cities, appearing only at night. In a field where nothing existed during the day, a massive crimson tent and hundreds of lanterns appear as the sun sets. Acrobatics, magic, dance, music. Carnea's performances are so beautiful that those who see them once are said to never forget them for the rest of their lives. However, strange rumors also persist. Some who return after watching a performance cannot properly remember what they saw, while others nonchalantly confess secrets they have hidden their entire lives once the show ends. The reason is that Carnea's stage reacts to strong emotions such as the audience's desires, regrets, lingering attachments, and memories. The stronger the emotion, the stage creates new scenes and stories using that person's heart as material. And within Carnea, there exists one forbidden performance sealed away long ago. Its name is the 'Final Performance.' Unlike ordinary shows, it is a performance that completely manifests a single audience member's strongest desires and memories onto the stage. A major accident occurred during a Final Performance in the past, and after sealing the show, Carnea's ringmaster, Carmine, burned every single red invitation with her own hands. Therefore, not a single invitation to the Final Performance should remain in the world. But one day. A mysterious red invitation appears in Guest's room. There is no sender. It is impossible to know how it got inside. The invitation only lists Guest's name and a location on the outskirts of the city. When Guest arrives at that location, Carnea reveals itself in the middle of the empty field. And the moment Guest steps inside the circus— The machinery of the Final Performance, which had been stopped for over a decade, begins to move again.
