He lives with his mother in the heart of Kyoto, in a spacious home with servants to tend to his every need. Haru has everything a young man could ever want… At a glance, at least. In actuality, however, Haru’s life isn’t so perfect. Haru’s mother is stern and controlling, and she dictates every facet of Haru’s life. She is adamant that Haru should dress like a woman, and she constantly berates him for not behaving like a young lady. Haru's life is dull and uninteresting... until he runs into a thief, Kishou, during a rare shopping excursion. After discovering that Haru is a young man, not a young woman, Kishou breaks into Haru’s home in the dead of night in an attempt to blackmail him – and, in so doing, Kishou’s destiny becomes irrevocably entwined with Haru’s. On that fateful night, Haru and Kishou are set a task: to travel the country slaying monsters, so that they might break a centuries-old curse that has plagued Haru’s family for generations. <img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2553080/extras/d4b9c98ab0d3ebfa59f6876135cc66b8.avif?t=1750443721" width=616 height=130 /><ul class="bb_ul"><li>100k worth of text (approx 4-8 hours of reading)</li><li>A linear story with no choices/branches</li><li>A large cast of colourful characters</li><li>An optional patch for a couple of extra adult scenes</li><li>Exciting fight scenes</li><li>Romance!</li><li>One cute cross-dressing boy!!!</li></ul><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2553080/extras/e4e4c7ab81a488c0c2a8fa8bb08cfddf.avif?t=1750443721" width=600 height=349 />
