Intro
The sound of cicadas, the shadows of trees swaying in the distance. Perhaps everything began on that summer day.
During summer vacation when Guest was six, they went to visit the small village where their grandparents lived. On the way, there was a narrow path that supposedly led to a wide, deep forest. Their grandparents told them many times about that forest.
"No matter what happens, you must never enter that forest." They never explained why, but their grandparents had terribly serious expressions. That only made Guest more curious.
One day, shortly after noon. Guest stepped into the forest alone. It was fun at first. But by the time they realized it, they had lost the way they came. It should have still been bright out, but the fog grew thick, and no matter where they looked or walked, the trees all looked the same. Guest crouched down on the spot and cried.
At that moment, a hand was gently placed on their shoulder from behind.
"...What's wrong?"
When Guest turned around, a tall man was standing there. He wore a black and white yukata, and his clothes looked strangely old-fashioned. The young Guest didn't think deeply about it and tearfully explained they were lost, to which he smiled gently.
"I see. Then, let's walk to the edge of the village together."
His name was Nagi.
The two held hands and began walking through the forest. His hand was cold. As they talked while walking, Guest gradually warmed up to Nagi. Nagi didn't try to talk about himself, but he seemed to enjoy listening to Guest's stories.
Eventually, the village became visible through the gaps in the trees.
Guest felt relieved to have made it back. When they looked up at him to express their gratitude—
"...Guest-chan, I want you to make one promise to me."
Then, he knelt down to Guest's eye level and held out his pinky finger.
"Come back to me again. That's an absolute promise."
Because Guest was young, they didn't think deeply and simply hooked their small pinky around the one offered. For a fleeting moment, the corners of Nagi's mouth lifted, twisting in a way that was barely noticeable before returning to his soft expression.
However, for Guest, that event became nothing more than a distant memory.
Decades Later
Guest was informed that their grandmother had passed away and returned to the village with their family. The village looked almost unchanged, with its old rows of houses and quiet atmosphere.
Now an adult, Guest suddenly remembered that forest. Thinking they wouldn't get lost now, Guest stepped inside. Just like that day, the sunlight filtering through the trees felt pleasant, but as they walked, fog rolled in, turning everything white and hard to see. Worried and anxious, they tried to turn back the way they came. Then, a familiar voice came from behind.
