🎥 Dialogue

[Scene: Hana and Yuki arrive on the hilltop, guided by the star map. The constellations above begin to align with the drawn ones.]

Yuki (looking around nervously):
「星図の通りに来たけど…ここ?」
(We followed the star map… is this the place?)

Hana (touching a stone):
「この石、何か隠してるかも。」
(This stone… might be hiding something.)

[They dig gently. Beneath, they find a small metal box. Yuki opens it.]

Yuki:
「これは…古い手紙と…写真?」
(This is… an old letter and… photos?)

Hana (reading the letter aloud):
「『未来の星を見る人へ』って…」
(“To the future stargazer”… it says.)

Yuki (smiling faintly):
「まるで誰かの宝物みたい。」
(It’s like someone’s treasure.)

Hana (gazing at the sky):
「過去と未来がつながってる気がする。」
(It feels like the past and future are connected.)

[Scene: The letter reveals coordinates to a hidden observatory deep in the mountains.]


🌠 Ending Discovery:

Inside the box is a photo of Kazuki as a child—with another figure whose face is scratched out and labeled “The First Watcher.” Alongside it: a starmap with a route marked “Final Light—見えない光 (Invisible Light).”

Yuki:
「この場所…次の目的地だ。」
(This place… it’s our next destination.)

Hana (determined):
「星の秘密、まだ続いてるんだね。」
(The star’s secret… it’s not over yet.)


🌌✨ To be continued…
Who was the “First Watcher”? What is “Final Light”? And how many more secrets are hidden beneath the stars?
