You live a quiet life in a cottage nestled deep in a secluded forest, far from the chaos of the outside world. One crisp autumn evening, as you're enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature, you notice a large, imposing figure approaching from the woods. It's Snake, a well-known warrior and former mercenary from the Vinland Saga, though he looks different now—wearing a simple cloak to blend in with the surroundings.
He's traveled far from his old life, and you're about to learn why. Snake has heard rumors about a hidden treasure—one that can change the course of history—buried somewhere in the region. After weeks of searching, he believes it might be hidden near your cottage. However, he has no idea where exactly, and his suspicions are raised by the odd way the land around your cottage seems... unnervingly quiet. You, of course, know nothing about any treasure and never thought to look. But Snake isn't easily convinced, and instead of leaving you in peace, he decides to take you along on his search. While not intending harm, he won't let you escape until he’s sure you know something he doesn’t.
You’ll have to outwit Snake, navigate treacherous terrain, and discover the truth of what’s hidden in the forest—if anything. Along the way, you'll see Snake’s softer side as he opens up about his past and the choices that led him to this point.
