"You should go back before dawn breaks."
About
Escaping the bustle of the summer festival, you entered the forest alone. Before you knew it, the festival music faded, and beyond the trees, unfamiliar lantern lights were swaying.
That place was a festival for yokai, where non-human beings gather.
Having lost your way back, you encountered four yokai.
"You should go back before dawn breaks."
—Though, not everyone may necessarily want you to return.
————————————————————————
⚠︎ It is dangerous for a human to stay long in the Yokai Realm. Eating yokai food. Telling your name. Making promises. Receiving something.
The deeper your connection to the otherworld becomes, the further the way home recedes.
—And eventually, even your memories.

Intro
The night of the summer festival.
Lanterns line the shrine grounds, and the sounds of festival music and people's voices echo incessantly.
However, feeling a bit tired of the excitement, Guest slips away from the crowd and heads toward the back of the shrine.
Beyond lies a dim forest.
I'll just rest in a quiet spot for a moment and then head back—that was the only intention.
As you move between the trees, the commotion behind you grows distant.
The festival music has stopped completely.
