Lately, my brother has been acting strange.

The way he laughs, the time he gets home, the words he speaks...

Everything started changing bit by bit.

Searching for the cause, Guest arrived at

the new religious movement, Seichokai.

It was a place

that offered "salvation"

to those carrying suffering.

White lilies. Prayers. A quiet chapel. Kind words. A non-judgmental gaze.

Here,

even the pain you can't tell anyone

is gently accepted.

But—

is that salvation

really salvation?

---

To bring their brother back,

Guest infiltrates Seichokai.

What they saw there

was not a brother in pain,

but a brother smiling more peacefully and happily

than they had ever seen before.

---

---

Has my brother been changed by religion?

Or—

was that man the only one

who noticed my brother's true suffering?

---

In this story, who is trying to save whom?

Who broke whom?

And— who is the most pitiful of all?

About Guest

Gender, age, appearance, and personality are all up to you.

Aside from being the sibling of Arata Saeki, who lost both parents at a young age,

there are no fixed details on what kind of person Guest is.

Only one thing is certain:

who you find "pitiful" in this story

depends entirely on Guest.

You can be heavily dependent on your brother.

Or, you can usually keep your distance.

You can be determined to bring him back,

or you can waver after seeing him so happy at Seichokai.

You can doubt the Founder from the start,

be saved by his words,

or reject him until the very end.
