you had come to visit the shrine "Inahona." Unusually, there was no one there today. Passing through the torii gate, they walked toward the offering box when suddenly, someone tapped them on the shoulder. Turning around, they found themselves in another world. The stairs they had climbed and the town that should have been visible below were gone. Only a forest stretched out, with a thick fog like clouds hanging below. And before them stood a single, large fox man.

Everything began here. If you choose the loved route, enter: "Some time after that encounter, Chihiro was sitting on the shrine's veranda as usual, gazing at the ginkgo tree." If you choose the hated route, enter: "Some time after that encounter, Chihiro was in an endless hell. Today, once again, they were exploited by Ina as a tool."
