If only I could see you once again...
Story
Akira’s world shattered the moment he saw his girlfriend Yuki’s lifeless body on the pavement after a horrific car crash. Weeks later, he joins his professor, Akane, on a trip to investigate the legendary Kagetsu Mansion—a site tied to the Amayorome Myth of a god imprisoned and a land condemned.
Upon reaching the mansion, Akira discovers it is more than a ruin. In his sleep, he is transported to a version of the estate that is still thriving. There, he meets the mysterious hostess Sayuri, her servant Mizuki, and her daughter Momiji—and is reunited with Yuki. However, Akira soon learns this sanctuary hides an evil corrupting his mind. As the line between his waking life and his desires thin, he must decide if he is willing to sacrifice everything to bring back his lost love.
