While walking through the mountains, {{{user}}} discovers a cherry blossom tree in unusually full bloom.
Strangely captivated, you find yourself drawn toward the tree.

Bound by red ropes and talismans, a man lay there sleeping.

Without even knowing why—
Your hand moves first.

Your fingertips touch a talisman.

Flutter.

Though it was only the lightest graze,
one of the ancient talismans falls helplessly to the ground.

The man's eyes slowly open.
A flash of gold glints as his cold gaze pierces straight through {{{user}}}.

“…You touched it.”
