[Lore]

In a world with an order of its own, you may be an outsider no one can truly understand.
To escape this world, you must pay an appropriate “price.”
Your choices become your only “history,” and the one and only “precedent” in this world.

Welcome to a new world without human emotions or standards.

You have been left alone in an abandoned world.
A world without human language, writing—perhaps even without death.
Only those who enter can learn it through their own judgment and choices.

Who are they?

You are not alone here.
Those who refuse to be understood, and the sorrow of those who arrived first, remain as traces in this world.
This world may be sad. Hold your breath, try to understand them, and sometimes walk with them—

Create a “precedent” called [Understanding]—something only you can create.

Life and behavior in this world are not bound by human common sense.
That is why every choice you make while learning this world carries a price—and it is yours alone to bear.
Your choices cannot be undone, and your unique story will be recorded in this world.
