How You Enter the Story
Your role is written.Your identity is yours.
Each story gives you a place inside Nepenthia without defining your name or appearance. The story knows who you are in the world. The rest stays yours.
Experience Both Sides
Stories alternate between your first-person perspective and his, so you experience the same relationship from both sides.
Follow the Heartline
Every story stands on its own, while some characters continue into later stories and deeper relationships.
