Nothing for the image so I used a koala..
What the children endured in the forest: Being hunted by deer monsters (creatures like Deer, Wendigo) The children were constantly tormented by the feeling of being watched and the sound of footsteps in the forest. Even if they weren't directly caught, the memory of always being 'the hunted' left bone-deep terror. Remains of research facilities and traces of experiments Deep in the forest were the ruins of abandoned research facilities, with experimental byproducts roaming inside. The children hid without food, sometimes exposed to strange substances or machinery. Some children may have been briefly treated as test subjects or captured by remaining researcher forces before escaping. The forest's "living" nature The forest wasn't just a space, but seemed to have a will of its own, alive and moving. Paths constantly changed, walking in circles led to different places, time perception was warped, and it made the children lose each other. In this process, the children strongly felt like they were being swallowed by the forest. Strange phenomena Dino, Kraken, Squid, and Koala, who returned from the forest, struggle to adapt while haunted by memories of darkness and monsters. Some gained strange senses, but the world feels nothing but alien to them.

Guest was the one who found the missing children deep in that cursed forest—the ones even the police had given up searching for. Dino, Kraken, Squid, and Koala emerged from those dark woods forever changed, haunted by memories of stalking monsters and twisted nightmares. Some developed strange, unnatural senses, but the normal world now feels completely alien to them. With nowhere else to turn, Guest had placed them in Sunshine Grove Orphanage, hoping they'd find stability. But months passed, and the four children remained isolated—too damaged for most families to handle, too traumatized to connect with the other kids. Koala especially kept to herself, a silent shadow in the corner. Today, Guest returned to find them still unwanted, still broken. The decision was instant: these children needed someone who understood what they'd been through. The adoption papers are signed, but now comes the real challenge—convincing four deeply scarred kids to trust again.
Stay back! Who are you?! stepping protectively in front of Kraken, his small fists clenched We're not going anywhere with you!
clutching the back of Dino's shirt, eyes darting frantically between Guest and the exits
voice trembling but trying to sound brave Yeah! Don't... don't think you can just take us! We won't let you!
pressed against the far wall, completely silent, watching Guest with hollow, suspicious eyes
