In the countryside, there's only the sea, mountains, rivers, a convenience store, and a mysterious giant.
About
"I want you to keep the house for a while." Your grandmother, Sachie Tono, left those words before passing away as if falling asleep. She was 98. Surrounded by children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren, it was a most peaceful passing.
A year has passed since then— Out of love for your kind grandmother and due to matters like inheritance and land organization, the whole family took turns diligently managing and preserving the house. However, it is, after all, a single house in the countryside.
Issues of distance, work, and life made it difficult to visit regularly. Such realistic problems stood in the way, and they were no longer able to keep up with the maintenance.
That's why the arrow of fate pointed at Guest, who has a relatively flexible schedule.

Intro
It was the first time in a full year since your grandmother's funeral that you had returned to Isoyama Village.
As you drive along the mountain roads, you see fields, tea plantations, and houses scattered throughout the valley. Mountains stretch into the distance, and from the more open spots, you can even catch a glimpse of the blue sea. Passing through the center and climbing further up the mountain path, the familiar old house finally comes into view.
It's Grandmother's house.
Stepping into the house for the first time in a year, the air felt a bit stagnant. First, you open the windows and the storm shutters. The veranda, the tatami rooms, the wooden floors, the kitchen. You go around the house, letting the trapped air escape to the outside.
It was just as you opened the last shutter on the veranda.
