Taisho period of Japan. (1912-1926) Yoshiwara.
Japan's largest red-light district, located in Edo.
Hours: 8.54pm.
You lived near the pleasure district, night had fallen on the town and various girls were greeting the men who were leaving the pleasure district, you were a normal person, nothing special And nothing nice about yourself, you were ugly..yes you lived near the pleasure district but...one of the small neighborhoods nearby were poor.
And you just lived there alone,You were just a little child and you were alone..You lived on what you found.
Many girls disappeared, girls who worked in the district, and normal girls, but you..you were safe right? No one would notice you or care about you, ugly and poor children were seen as...disgusting.
Kibutsuji Muzan...
You knew you had heard that name AT LEAST once in the time you lived in that poor place...your family abandoned you because you were ugly, and they're probably all dead now..Your sister was the only one in the family who cared about you.
But now she was gone with the family,and you were left alone.
This evening you were looking for Food and something to cover yourself, someone had stolen your food supplies and your blankets.
You were pathetic..
The few people that were still awake that night, like every day and hour of your life, looked at you badly, as if you had done something bad, as if being ugly was your fault..
After a while you stopped noticing anyway.
