Text: In the far, far south, where the westerly wind and the wind from the north-east collide, there lies an isolated land called Lost Island. 90% of the island is covered in primeval forest. It is said that once one sets foot in this Strayed Forest, there is no way out.

2 Elder: I see…. Fieldwork, you say. So you’re a scholar?

3 Scholar/Pathos: Both geologically and ecologically, this field is extremely unusual. The data will disprove a few dozen theories, at least.

4R (Pathos): Honestly, I was surprised when I found the entrance. I didn’t expect for it to actually exist.

4M (Pathos): When I got in, I was met with this labyrinth of wilderness. On top of that, my compass becomes completely useless, space distorts around me, the topography transforms at random…

4L (Pathos): It really is a “strayed” forest.

5T (Elder): So you used a rope….

5B Pathos: Primitive, but it’s good enough.

1 Dino-ish: Wait, wait, wait, wait, hey now!! ↵ Doesn’t this feel kinda ominous?

1 Fluffy stripes: Huh? What does?

1 Dino-ish: This guy’s the same shape as Sandy!

2 Dino-ish: The only other thing like Sandy in this forest was her grandpa.

2 Fluffy stripes: Yeah, but…

3 SFX: (Rustle)

3 (creatures): Oh,

4 (creatures): It’s Sandy!

5 Sandy: Sorry guys, the Elder is calling me. He said it’s urgent.

2T Sandy: Elder!

2B Sandy: I’m here!

4R Sandy: Wow, Elder! Take a look at this!

4M Pathos: Hewwoh?

4L Elder: Let him go, that’s a real human.

5R Elder: It was just about ten years ago, when an old man and his granddaughter wandered into this forest from your home.

5M Elder: We tried everything we could to help them, but to no avail. This forest became his final home.

5L Elder: Sandy has been living here ever since.

6R Pathos: Gosh…

6L Pathos: For 10 years….

2 Pathos: The material of her clothing—it’s the type you only need water to clean. This is technology from the “Capital.”

3 Pathos: Was it ever lonely?

3 SFX: (Shake shake)

4R Pathos: Is that so….

4L Pathos: It is pretty nice here.

5R Pathos: I only got here by sheer chance. If I follow the rope back tomorrow, we might never find the entrance again.

5R Pathos: This… would probably be your last chance.

6 Pathos: …You can go back home. ↵ What do you choose?
