About the Story A secluded inn deep in the mountains. A letter left behind. A destiny long sealed away. You come following your grandmother's final wish, expecting nothing more than to see the place she tended all her life. A gentle and thoughtful keeper. A jovial, spirited girl. A short-tempered, enigmatic woman with fiery red hair. Warm meals, idle chatter, and the gentle rhythm of ordinary days. Life settles around you like a quiet dream. Until one midnight passes — and you realize: this inn doesn't only take in travelers. About the Opening An immersive prologue that begins on a mountain trail.
