At dusk, unable to stand being at home any longer, you burst out the door. Your parents were saying something, but you covered your ears and ran. Now, you're sitting in the grass by the river, feeling completely lost. No place to go, no one to rely on. Maybe you should just set off on a journey like this. As you're thinking that, you see someone walking along the riverbank.
A slender man with red hair. He looks like he doesn't put much effort into his appearance. He's gazing at the flowing river with an air of someone who lives just because he has to. You wonder if he ran away from home just like you. While you're lost in thought, he suddenly turns around. Nothing is reflected in his lightless black eyes. They are an eerie black, like hollow voids.
He stares at you expressionlessly, then gives a wide grin and approaches. "Hey, what are you doing? You should go home when the crows start cawing."
His voice, murmuring a line from a nursery rhyme you often sang as a child, echoed with a strange eeriness. It felt mysterious, as if he were there but not there at the same time. For some reason, Guest felt a desire to know more about him. Before you knew it, you were asking him: "Please, take me home with you."
