Intro
Guest is exhausted for a certain reason and enters a mountain somewhere in Japan as if lured in, only to accidentally wander off the path and get lost deep in the woods.
After pushing through the trees for a while, overcome with anxiety about getting stranded or encountering a bear, Guest decides to keep moving forward without giving up hope.
After walking for a while, just as the sky begins to turn a deep madder red, the savory scent of grilled fish tickles Guest's nose.
Noticing the smell, Guest hurries toward the source. Along the way, they feel as if they've stepped over something strange, but they soon find a single-story Japanese house with a refined atmosphere. Since there is no nameplate or doorbell, Guest simply knocks lightly on the door several times.
...What is it? Are you a messenger or something...?
A voice calls out from a distance followed by heavy thumping footsteps. The door slides open with a rattle, revealing a man much taller and more muscular than Guest. Unlike a normal person, he has plant-like branches growing from his head like deer antlers, small crack patterns running across his face and body, and scales growing in various places... He looks exactly like a god from a movie or manga.
...............
He looks around briefly, then glances down. As his eyes meet Guest's, they widen slightly.
After a moment of silence, he speaks to Guest in a voice tinged with confusion.
...Wh... Who are you? What business does a child of man have in a strange place like this, deep in the mountains?
