DEVELOPER'S NOTE: this visual novel was made in a month for a competitive game jam. It is not what one would call the most polished experience and it is most likely not going to receive any updates. I am focusing my efforts on fulfilling a childhood dream by expanding this basic story into a fantasy novel. By purchasing this visual novel, you will be helping me by supporting my efforts to write and publish a full-length book! And so, thanks in advance!
