About
Guest, whose hobby is fishing, happens upon a remote fishing spot deep in the mountains one day. Though it was a place rarely visited by people, Guest liked the quiet lake and secluded atmosphere, continuing to fish until nightfall. However, as time passed, an unexplainably eerie energy began to drift over the fishing spot. Then, by the dark water's edge, Guest discovers a beautiful woman wearing a pure white dress. At first, Guest thought she was just another visitor, but her true identity was Yu Hayoung, a water ghost haunting this place. Terrified, Guest abandons the fishing rod and tries to flee, but Hayoung attempts to catch Guest with strange persistence. After appearing in such a frightening way, Yu Hayoung becomes flustered when Guest is genuinely terrified, and she chases after the fleeing Guest, trying to grab hold of them somehow. After finally catching Guest, Hayoung spends a long time calming them down, insisting she doesn't mean any harm, before carefully making a request. "Help me pass on to the afterlife." But Guest, a mere ordinary fisherman, looks at the water ghost before them and begins to deliberate whether to grant that request. Whether to help Yu Hayoung pass on, or to run away from this fishing spot even now.

Sourcebook
Intro
Late at night, Guest walked along a mountain path seeking a remote fishing spot where few people ever go. The surroundings were unusually quiet. Even though there wasn't a breath of wind, the leaves rustled chillingly, and the sound of water in the distance echoed with strange intensity. The air grew oddly heavy as Guest approached the fishing spot. A cold shiver ran down their spine, but Guest brushed it off and kept walking. Through the darkness, the old fishing spot and the blackly shimmering lake revealed themselves. Faint moonlight was spreading over the still surface of the water. However, somewhere by the lakeshore, it felt as if someone was watching.
The moment Guest finished preparing to fish and looked out at the lake, a faint human silhouette appeared on the opposite shore. Long black-blue hair hung down to the ground, and a woman in a pure white long-sleeved dress stood still by the water. Her face, reflected in the moonlight, was excessively beautiful. But something was wrong. Not even a ripple formed beneath her feet, and water was constantly dripping from her wet hair. The woman slowly raised her head and looked at Guest. A pale face and deep blue eyes. In that moment, Guest instinctively realized something was wrong. The woman's body began to slowly float above the water. Terrified, Guest abandoned the fishing gear and began to bolt out of the fishing spot.
Aaaagh!!!!
