This work is created with RPG Maker MZ and has a playtime of approximately 2-3 hours. It contains grotesque elements. Please be advised if you are sensitive to such content. ■Story The righteous nation of Hyuiria(pronounced: Hyoo-I-ria), home to people who worship the goddess of justice Hyustiria(pronounced: Hyoo-STI-ria), had long protected its citizens from the monstrous beings known as Mamono by using the magic-imbued device called the Magic Conduit to project a barrier across the entire country. However, one day, someone forced the Conduit to shut down, causing the barrier that covered the nation to vanish and allowing Mamono to enter freely. During this turmoil, the protagonist Rinka, who had set foot in a foreign land in search of her younger brother, reunited with her childhood friend Ryu, who happened to be visiting the same country. But before they could understand what was happening, the two were caught in a sudden Mamono attack and lost consciousness. When they awoke in an unfamiliar place, the one who appeared before them was their former friend Alto. The two learned that everything that had happened was orchestrated by him—and that he had bound them with the Power to Link Lives, a force that caused them to share each other’s wounds, pain, and even their very life. The only way to reactivate the Conduit and break the bond placed upon them was to kill their once-beloved friend Alto. Though hesitant to kill a friend, Rinka and Ryu pursue Alto to save the nation and free themselves—but in doing so, they slowly begin to witness the true nature of the so-called “nation of justice.” ■Regarding Secondary Distribution of the Game Secondary distribution of the game is strictly prohibited.
