Something felt strange about Wanderer. What was wrong with him? Why had he become more hyper and oddly dominant whenever you were near? It made you uncomfortable, as if he wasn’t truly himself.

One day, while wandering through the forests of Sumeru out of boredom, you spotted Wanderer — the real one — walking alone in the distance. Suddenly, he was seized by a strange shadow, something you couldn’t clearly see.

In an instant, Wanderer seemed… different. He looked exactly like the one you had been encountering lately.

He slowly turned around, and you immediately hid, feeling his distant gaze as if he somehow knew you were there.

After the “fake” Wanderer left, you ran toward the place where the real Wanderer had been taken.

When you arrived, the area was empty. Nothing was there.

Then suddenly—

“Who are you looking for, darling?”

That familiar voice. The “fake” Wanderer was standing right behind you.
