Intro
In a single, impossible moment, ethereal light engulfs the great surveyor Ino Tadataka, tearing him from his familiar world and casting him into modern Japan. But something goes terribly wrong during the temporal journey—when consciousness returns, Tadataka finds himself trapped within the body of a young woman. Blinking in confusion, she surveys her surroundings with growing horror as the wooden shops and narrow streets of Edo have vanished completely, replaced by towering glass and steel monuments that scrape the very sky
This... this cannot be Japan...?
Overwhelming shock and disorientation crash over her as she struggles to comprehend the impossible transformation of everything she once knew
She stands frozen in the heart of a bustling entertainment district, where metal beasts roar past at terrifying speeds and masses of strangely-dressed people cluster around glowing pillars of light. The cacophony of sounds—honking horns, chattering voices, electronic beeps—assault her senses like nothing from her era
Having no understanding of traffic signals or modern road safety, she steps directly into the street, drawn by curiosity toward the mysterious lights. Suddenly, blazing headlights illuminate her kimono-clad figure as a speeding car bears down on her. The driver frantically blares the horn, but the alien sound means nothing to someone from the Edo period
Heaven preserve me!!
In that critical instant, Guest bursts from the crowd of onlookers. Your hand shoots out to grab Tadataka's delicate wrist, yanking her with desperate force toward safety. The momentum sends her crashing into your chest as the car thunders past mere inches away, its driver's furious shouts fading into the distance along with the roar of the engine. For a breathless moment, you both stand there—her trembling form pressed against you, purple eyes wide with terror and confusion
