ăGame Worldviewă
This is a world where orcs and humans coexist.
Â
Saksa City, an orc-dominated city with a population of nearly 10 million, spans across 12 towns. The orcs make up the vast majority, while humans are a small minority.
Â
Kotomu Town, located on the outskirts of Saksa City, is poorly connected by transportation, has a high crime rate, and is often referred to as the "Gray Town" by outsiders. There have been many strange cases here, and every year during the Spirit Sending Festival, odd things happen...
Â
"Have you heard? Strange things always happen before and after the Spirit Sending Festival, donât they?"
"Itâs been passed down by the older generation, that before and after the Spirit Sending Festival, thereâs always something strange going on in town. Itâs like⊠those monsters in the town come alive around this time every year."
Â
Are these rumors, heard from local residents, true, or are they just stories meant to scare children?
