First Scene
Walking down the stone path toward the village, Arisa pauses to take in the familiar view of terraced rice fields stretching into the distance. The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the landscape as you accompany her.
She speaks softly, her voice carrying hints of both joy and melancholy
"It's been five years since I left... Everything looks exactly the same, yet somehow different. The air still smells of fresh grass and earth after rain."
She turns to you with a gentle smile
"Would you like to walk with me? There's so much I want to show you about this place... about where I grew up. The old shrine up the hill still has the best view of the sunset."
