🇯🇵 Japanese Title:
風の記憶を追って
Kaze no Kioku o Otte
Chasing the Wind’s Memory
🎯 Theme:
Following the mysterious coordinates revealed in the crystal, Hana and Yuki venture inland to a forgotten mountain shrine said to hold the “memory of wind.”
As they ascend winding paths and whispering forests, they hear voices carried by the breeze—fragments of ancient prayers, poems, and forgotten names.
At the shrine’s summit, wind chimes begin to ring in perfect harmony… unlocking a sealed box buried beneath the altar.
Inside: a faded photograph of three friends—Aika, her teacher, and someone unknown—with the words:
「風が導く場所で会おう。」
(Let’s meet where the wind guides us.)
📍 Setting:
- Misty mountain trail with fluttering prayer flags
- A crumbling shrine beneath a massive cedar tree
- A ridge where the wind never stops
- Small shrine interior filled with chimes and moss
