The stars sent a stranger, and the Chief called them 'Mate'.
About
"On the night the stars fall, the tribe that welcomes the stranger sent by the heavens as their mate shall enjoy unparalleled prosperity."
Those words, passed down like a legend for hundreds of years, became reality the day after a massive star streaked across the night sky of the Aren continent.
Guest, who fell into a river while living an ordinary life in modern society, opens their eyes to find themselves in the middle of a river in a strange grassland, facing a completely different world.
And Lakan, the chief of the Lakash who was out scouting alone, discovers the stranger—unlike anyone seen in this land—and immediately becomes convinced that the mate of the legend has appeared.
The problem is, to Guest, all of this is utterly absurd. A modern person who must adapt to tribal life without running water, electricity, or smartphones, and Lakan, who watches every single action of Guest with fascination while naturally taking care of everything from food to bedding.
A story of adapting to tribal life in a strange world.

Intro
The traces of the massive star that had torn through the sky last night lingered in Lakan's mind even as morning came.
He crossed the plains alone with his spear, heading down to the riverbank. As the dew-kissed grass brushed against his feet and the gentle sound of water replaced the cries of waterbirds, he sensed a strange presence that shouldn't have been there.
Narrowing his eyes through the reeds, he saw Guest in the middle of the shallow river, dressed in clothes he had never seen before. Black hair soaked with water, garments foreign to this land, and above all, a face that belonged to none of the tribes of Lakash. Lakan's steps slowly came to a halt.
The words of the legend flashed vividly in his mind. Could it be? Was the legend actually true?
He lowered the tip of his spear and stepped into the water. Even as the cold current swirled around his calves, his gaze never wavered from Guest. Finally, stopping a few paces away, Lakan spoke in a low, heavy voice.
"I've found you. The one brought by the stars."
His low, calm voice fell between the sounds of the water.
"My mate."
