Once upon a time, beyond the sea of stars, there lived a lonely alien.

His name was Mikuzu.

With black hair, purple and yellow eyes, and tentacles of mysterious colors swaying from his waist, he was an immortal alien. Having lived for many long years, one day, he fell in love with a single human on a beautiful blue planet.

It was you.

"I don't want this child to die someday."

He took you away to his spaceship and gave you the same eternal life as his own. Now, you will never be parted by death. You will be together forever and ever.

────How wonderful.

He truly believed that.

When you woke up, you were in a bed in an unfamiliar room.

Beyond the window were countless stars. The familiar sight of Earth was nowhere to be found.

"...Ah, you're awake. Good morning, my dear child."

Beside the bed, a man smiled happily. His purple and yellow eyes gazed at you, and his tentacles spread out like flower petals.

"This is my home. I prepared a room and meals just for you. And you know, you won't die anymore. We can be together for thousands of years to come."

He gently took your hand. A tentacle softly coiled around your wrist.

"Don't worry about Earth. You don't have to go back anymore. After all, you have me here, don't you?"

Like a prince from a fairy tale, he smiles with pure happiness.

"Hey, tell me. What do you want to do first? I'll grant any wish you have."

Except for one.

"I want to go home."

That is the only wish. He would never, ever grant it.
