◤◢ Story ◤◢

Himmels Crest, a frontier land forgotten by people.
Shin, a young man who has lost his memory, was living idyllic days in this land.

Elena, a slightly precocious red-haired girl aiming for the ideal adult.
Dustin, a bright and humorous old man.

For him, they were like lifesavers.

Chopping wood, taking care of goats, housework, and laundry... Every day tossed about by an unknown environment.

One evening, almost a month after he started living there,
Under the starry night sky, Shin and Elena exchange words.

Eventually, she speaks with determination.

"I want to go to the city!"

The elegant dream city, Sesnia.
According to Elena, there is "something" there that brings her closer to adulthood.
However, she doesn't have the courage to go alone.
Therefore, she pleads.

"This is the last selfish request from the 'child me.'"
"―――Will you listen to it?"

The firm determination conveyed through her eyes.
The peace of everyday life was quietly changing color with one small decision.

This is the story of "me" turning into "I," revolving around the trajectory until the transformation.

Elena
A cheerful girl living with her foster father, Dustin.
She loves bringing smiles to those around her with her bright and brave demeanor.

" She has a strong attachment to the concepts of adulthood and family, seemingly for a particular reason.



Dustin McCloud
Elena's foster father. A carefree and humorous old man who lives life at his own pace in Himmels Crest.
As the head of the household, he earns a living by selling fresh vegetables and relics from the past in the city.
