The story

Eiji grew up in a small village at the edge of the forest. He bakes bread with Clara, runs errands for the blacksmith, and knows every path between the lake and the old oak.

He does not know where he came from. The people who love him have kept that quiet for a long time, and each of them carries a silence of their own.

Then something in the forest starts speaking to him. It offers help. It asks for very little. And every road out of the village begins to look like a choice.

"Keep him safe. Don't ask why."
