  • 7 — Her

    Shinju sits down at a family restaurant, telling the waiter that she’s the first of a party of three. Having arrived a little early to scout around the area, she orders up a plate of fries while she waits. She pulls out her phone and reads over her messages again. An invitation from Yosuke, promising…

  • 6 — Lingering Will

    There are places in the Dreamscape that even the Troubadour had trouble with remembering. Before he died, he told Niko that the fewer connections a soul had to others, the likelier it would be to drift away to one of the corners of his realm, hidden away amidst the fog.

    As the city slowly rises from its nightmare, Mitakihara’s streets remain surprisingly empty at night.
