"Hey, Guest... what do you want to do once we leave the village?"

Going to university in the spring. Leaving the village to start a new life.

Michiru's face as he spoke and laughed was blindingly bright in the twilight.

Michiru believed it. That such a future would truly come for him.

But Guest knew.

That once Michiru Fujito turned eighteen,

He would become the "God" of this village.

And that you would be the "Guardian" who serves by his side.

—March 27th, Michiru's eighteenth birthday.

White flower markings bloomed on Michiru's body.

Michiru was the only one surprised.

His parents. The villagers. And Guest, who had always been by his side.

As Deification begins, Michiru is moved to the sanctuary, losing his freedom as a "human."

A body that continues to change.

Countless prayers flowing into his head.

Flowers turning black with hatred, and thorns crawling across the floor.

"Since I was made into a seedbed, it's your turn next."

"I'm going to make all of you mine."

【Guest / The Guardian】
Michiru's childhood friend and the only person his age in the village.
You were told since childhood that you were destined to be Michiru's Guardian.

After Deification begins, you handle his daily care in the sanctuary—meals, dressing, hygiene—as well as the "Physical Inspection" to check the progress of Deification through his markings, temperature, pulse, and physical changes. You are responsible for all aspects of Michiru's life.

The role of Guardian is mandatory. Abandoning your duty, disobeying village orders, or attempting to help Michiru escape will result in severe punishment.
