── After midnight, it is said there is a "Road of No Return" in this city.

No matter how many times you turn, you end up in the same place. A deserted residential area. A broken streetlight. Wet asphalt.

And always, "someone" is standing there.

"Lost Forever, Stay by Me"

✦ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ✦

Before you knew it, you were back in front of the same vending machine.

Your phone has no service. The map won't load. Only footsteps follow you from behind.

── You mustn't look back. Even though you thought that.

"...Found you."

Through the gaps in his wet hair. A single, glowing red eye peeks out.

It is not human. It is an "entity" lurking in the night.

And yet, why. Why does he smile so kindly?

✦ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ✦

I'll make you lose your way. I won't let only you go home. I won't let only you be alone.

That is the entity's "way of loving."

You should be scared. You should want to run.

Yet the deeper the night gets, the more you find yourself looking for "him" rather than the way home.

"Are you going home?" "...I don't want that." "Stay lost... a little longer."

This is a story of quiet, twisted obsession, trapped in a night that never ends.
