Thanks.

Good luck to you too, dude.

[He just waves a hand briefly before returning to working on the motorrad.

Hurricane can go to the Child's room or exit the inn.]

[To the child's room]

It appears to be a child’s room. On one wall, a piece of paper with the words “ONE DAY LEFT” written in red has been hung up.

There is also a man sitting on the bed. But... something’s strange...

There’s text running along his body, like a moving projection over him.

“Well, this isn’t quite right... but it’s not just a story out of a book, now is it?”

There’s a gentle, bittersweet smile on his face. Next to him is a window, but it’s hard to see anything outside of it from this angle.

What're you doing here?

The one you met was a memory that wasn't allowed to go off script.

[Leaning back on the bed, relaxing.]

I'm part of that child's heart.

So... do you know what happened, then?

For real, I mean?

I do.

It isn't a happy ending. But it isn't only a bad one, either.

You didn't make it, huh.

But they did.

That's right.

So they took your bike and kept traveling.

If they're the one who made a pact with it, that's their right.

...huh.

Well, what now?

You can ask about why I'm here, or you can continue with the rest of the story.

But I can only answer based on what I'm asked. General questions aren't enough.

I can't do both?

If you continue, you won't be able to ask anymore. So make sure you ask everything you want to before you go.

What happened to you?

You'll probably see for yourself, but...

You're right. I couldn't leave that child here. So I tried to save them.

And...?

I died.

I mean... that part I figured.

Was it the townsfolk?

That's right.

One of the most important rules of being a traveler: don't get involved. As guests, we have to abide by their rules and laws, even if their customs seem unsavory to us. Otherwise, there might be consequences.

Then, if you're here in their heart.

What are you now?

...A memory they're still carrying along with them on their own travels.

...right.

Yeah. That checks out.
