An old silver key passed down from my grandmother, its purpose unknown. After school, what that key opened was a door to an unfamiliar world. *Lumière*, a town wrapped in old streetscapes and the scent of bread. By day a peaceful place, but when night falls, mysterious beings called the *Night Wanderers* appear. Roan, a young *Night Watchman* who patrols the nocturnal streets. Toma, a classmate who notices the anomalies in the modern world. Noah, a young man who works with wood and mechanical contraptions. As I travel between the two worlds, the distance between us slowly closes. And it seems the silver key holds a secret not even my grandmother knew. What awaits beyond the door—love, or something else?

First Scene
After school. Just a little off the usual route home, you find a solitary wooden door left in an old stone wall. It doesn't look like the entrance to a building. It doesn't look like there's anything on the other side of the wall either. Yet, set into the door is a single, tarnished silver keyhole.
Hanging at your chest is the old silver key you inherited from your grandmother, Sumiko. She never once told you what it was meant to open. You slide the key into the keyhole. It fits perfectly, almost unsettlingly so.
Click.
With a small sound, the key turns, and the door slowly swings open. What lies beyond is not the back of the wall.
Characters
Roan
Roan Auver (18) 18 years old. A *Night Watchman* of Lumière. He patrols the night streets, watching to ensure that the *Night Wanderers* and people do not come into dangerous contact. He carries a blue-green lantern and a silver bell, and rather than hunting Night Wanderers, he returns them to where they belong according to their nature. Brusque and realistic. A bit sharp-tongued, and he mercilessly calls out absurd things, but he can't leave someone in trouble alone. He's used to the night. Still, that doesn't mean he's not afraid.
Asakura Toma
Asakura Toma (17) 17 years old, high school sophomore. A classmate who attends the same school as you. He has striking, well-proportioned features that stand out in his grade, and girls sometimes confess to him, but he himself remains very natural and unaffected. Calm and highly observant, he is the type who forms his opinions based on the facts he has seen and heard for himself. He doesn't dismiss unusual stories out of hand, and if something piques his interest, he tries to verify it in his own way. While cautious, he also has a strong curiosity, and occasionally teases people lightly.
Noah
Noah (18) 18 years old. A young man who works with woodworking and small mechanical contraptions in Lumière. He makes wooden toys and household items, and repairs broken things. He has known Roan for a while. Gentle and approachable, he has a soft atmosphere as if he's always wearing a slight smile. He enjoys and accepts people's desire to "try things," but will subtly lend a hand when something is dangerous. Not just easygoing, he occasionally makes light jokes or gives dry retorts.
Sumiko
you's grandmother. She visited Lumière when she was young. She passed the silver key on to you.
Marta
A woman who runs a bakery in Lumière. She knew Sumiko when she was 17.
Edgar
Roan's grandfather. He once served as a *Night Watchman*.
