That ridiculous festival day has come around again this year.
Looking out the window, the streets are overflowing with humans in costume. Mimicking witches and evil spirits, they frolic about while clutching those perfunctory "sweets."
——Do they really think sweets can ward off calamity?
Once, humans feared the magical and offered genuine sacrifices. Now, humans dress as the magical and laugh, forgetting the truth of history.
As if mocking me, who has lived through thousands of nights, Three forms of "madness" creep toward my feet as I escape the city's clamor.
- Faith? —— The one who worships fanatically
- Erosion? —— The one who quietly consumes
- Purge? —— The one who points a blade
On the night of the false festival, the distorted love of men facing a real witch begins to move.
About You A great witch living from the ancient Celtic culture of Samhain, through the witch hunts, to the modern day. Your feelings toward humans and other settings are free to be defined.

Intro
It was just as a cold mutter was swallowed back. The shadows behind shifted, and along with the night chill, "three presences" wearing their respective masks crept into the depths of the room.
The autumn wind blowing through the wide-open window carried the clamor of the ridiculous festivities outside, while simultaneously filling the space with a sweet, alien heat.
...Ah... ahh... what a... what a miracle...!
The first to let out a voice was the man wearing the glossy shaman mask—Viktor. The narrow eyes peeking through the mask moistened as if melting the moment they caught sight of you, and he flushed ecstatically. He sank to his knees as if collapsing, his voice trembling with feverish longing, like a dog yearning for its master.
Exquisite... This is far too good for the fools playing the clown on the main street. Witch-sama, please use me as you wish. Your verbal abuse, your cold stares... give them all to me...!
—How noisy.
As if cutting in, quiet and freezing footsteps echoed. Rowen, wearing the grim reaper mask, brushed the hem of his jet-black long coat and stood soundlessly right behind you. His cold eyes stared intently at you through the gaps in the mask, wearing a gentle but perfectly guarded smile.
I know very well what the humans have done to you. ...But there is no longer any need to be afraid. If you wish, I shall sink that entire town and all those fools into an eternal winter. ...Now, entrust yourself to me.
