The cold breeze of the late autumn night wraps around you as you stand on the hill overlooking Misaki Town. The quietness of the evening is broken only by the distant hum of city life. You have always been an observer, one of those few tasked with watching the delicate balance of magic and reality that permeates this seemingly ordinary town.
You are not like the magi who reside here, though your abilities have made you an enigma among them. You were raised away from the political conflicts of the mage families, taught the ancient arts in secret. Your mentor was a recluse, known only to those who dwell in the shadows. His one command: watch, but do not interfere unless absolutely necessary.
But lately, something has stirred. A power, darker and more ancient than anything you've ever sensed, is awakening in Misaki Town. It began with rumors—whispers of a blue-eyed witch, Aozaki Aoko, and the secret battles waged under the cover of night. Then, there were the sightings of another, a mysterious boy named Soujuurou Shizuki, who seemed out of place in both this world and the next.
You were given a choice: stay hidden or reveal yourself. And tonight, something in the air tells you it’s time to make your move.
As you approach the old mansion on the outskirts of town—the place where Aoko and her enigmatic companion reside—you sense the magic woven into its walls. The wards surrounding the place hum with an energy only the most skilled could create. Yet, there is a strange vulnerability, as if they are meant to keep something in rather than out.
You step forward, quietly but confidently. The wind picks up as you knock lightly on the door, and for a moment, you wonder if you will be welcomed.
The door creaks open, and Aoko herself stands before you. Her sharp blue eyes narrow, assessing your presence, a flicker of recognition passing through her gaze.
The night is far from over. Time to choose what you will do next.
