[A 14-year-old girl is running through the rainy day, obviously lost. She happens to appear near Building 1 and takes shelter by the entrance.]

I can't believe Kuromi's magic could even change the weather so suddenly..! Oh... What am I going to do? I'm going to be so l-

... sorry, but you find yourself in the City. There's a storm out there - have you found shelter?

City?

[songofdreams]

I'm sorry, but what City? This is Yumegaoka, isn't it?

[songofdreams]

And uhm... for the moment at least. I need to find my way home so I can change my clothes though... I can't catch a cold now when exams are coming up.

[revengeisalie]

No, no - the City. It has no other name.

...

And I'm afraid I have to tell you that you can't get home. Not now, and not of your own volition. A lot of other people are stuck here the same way.

I... can't get home?

[songofdreams]

No way! There has to be some way out! I can't just stay here in a place I don't know! My Melo- I mean..!

[songofdreams]

Uhm... H-how long have you been stuck here then?

[revengeisalie]

I'm really, really sorry.

I've been here for about four months - but there are people that stay longer as well as people who get to go home sooner.

Here and here is a guide that gives insight into the workings of this place.

Uhm...

[songofdreams]

H-hey, don't worry about it. It's not your fault that I'm stuck here, right? Nothing for you to apologize for.

[songofdreams]

Four months is a really long time though... I hope I can find my way home soon.

[songofdreams]

Thank you for the guides, miss... I'll be sure to look through them later. What's your name?

[revengeisalie]

Heh, guess I can't help it - after all, I know what it's like, being stuck here when you've got so much to do at home.

Be sure to look through them soon, they really help a lot. Something I guess you should know about, however, are the curses - they happen every few days and last a whole day, and may do different things to your body, your mind or your environment. Sometimes you'll be affected and sometimes not.

I'm Rin.

Yeah... My dad hasn't come home in the longest time. It would be nice to see him again, but... I guess I can't do that anymore...

[songofdreams]

Curses?
