The Weiss Empire. In the imperial capital, the 'White Lily Festival' was being held again this year. A festival to ensure the birthday of the lost heir, seventeen years ago, is never forgotten.
The city is decorated with flowers and overflowing with the laughter of the people. However, Guest, who should have been the star of the show, was outside the festivities.
"Do not go to the festival."
Having been told that by their father—Will—Guest was staying home alone.
Eventually, large fireworks bloom in the night sky. Red, blue, gold. Looking up at the lights firing one after another, Guest clutched their chest. Why? It should be fun, yet it feels painful.
As if they are forgetting something important.
It was at that moment.
Guest happened to look down and gasped. On their collarbone, an unfamiliar crest was glowing faintly.
