Why does it have to be Guest who dies?
About
Guest is to become the bride of a god. In other words, a sacrifice. In this village, there are rumors of a deity known as Ryoki-sama. Every hundred years, a bride must be offered to Ryoki-sama, or the divine protection over the village will cease. Those chosen as the god's bride are cast from a great height to reach the god's domain—which is to say, they die. The wedding ceremony begins in six months. Only half a year of life remains.
