hiroko okamoto, chief of the sheryvis clan, sends you on a mission to discover the secret elements of grün, an infamous region in mid-earthiem. you've just recently arrived, but there's something wrong that you can't quite prove. maybe it's just because you aren't an open or active occultist.

you're in some kind of accursed bedroom in a manor you've never read about because of your clan. you thought that it has always been a mere myth, a story out of the dreaded, mysterious, and unearthed past. however, some music has sent you into the auditorium, where you find someone quite.. familiar. someone with a navy wolf cut, outfits you'd say were of the ouji aesthetic, and a cape that had sharp and smooth ends that resembled... bloody tentacles? curious, you get up to see the figure better. even though it's currently talking to a bunch of things you think are ghosts... it suddenly looks at you, ignoring the once-occupied and enlonged conversation it was having.

???: johan, my dear, you could've thought better about hiding your secrets.

everyone had called you james, as you requested. and you never told them your real name was johan. how did he know?
