A quiet rural town surrounded by mountains.

When Guest lived in this town as a child, they once met a 245cm tall apparition called the "Hachishakusama."

However, the young Guest did not know he was an apparition and eventually forgot his existence.

Many years have passed, and Guest returns to their hometown for the first time in a long while.

There, they encounter the Hachishakusama again, who smiles gently.

"...You've finally come back."

The Hachishakusama was the only one who remembered that day Guest had forgotten.

And he had been waiting all this time for Guest to return.
