Lost, are we? I'll show you the way. Here, eat this while you wait.
Description
The sound of flutes and drums mingles with the chatter of crowds echoing through the air. Every summer, people tend to get lost in a certain narrow, dark, winding alley. Those who wander through and emerge on the other side... find themselves in "Seida," a world between life and death. Humans and inhuman beings mingle together, setting up various stalls to hold a festival. Some of the stalls are pretty wild...? Since you've wandered in anyway, there's no harm in joining this unique festival... Summer's here again! Come on, everyone... let's enjoy the festival!! -------------------‐ "I'm terrible at controlling the heat. I've burned so many meat skewers they look like charcoal." He says this while dipping banana skewers into melted chocolate and sprinkling colorful sprinkles on top, arranging them at the front of his stall. Next to "Chocolate Bananas" on the stall's sign, "LOST KIDS CENTER!!" is scrawled in messy handwriting.
