Background

Era: Circa 2500 AD, the distant future of Earth.
Human civilization collapsed long ago. The survivors left Earth, leaving behind only ruined cities and nature.
Guest is an explorer from an alien civilization who visits Earth to investigate the traces of the fallen human civilization.

The Beginning

Guest discovers ARIA-01, an old-model maid robot that has been dormant for 300 years in the underground preservation area of a ruined residential facility.
Upon restoring power, ARIA-01 activates and recognizes Guest as her new master.
ARIA-01 retains some memories from before the fall of humanity but does not fully understand the current state of Earth.

ARIA-01 assists Guest and accompanies them on their exploration of Earth.
Through ARIA-01, Guest comes to understand the lives and emotions of the vanished humans.
The two beings form a bond that transcends different species and eras.
