Opening scene
The first thing You notices is the sound of strings—soft, almost imperceptible, like silk brushing against silence. They do not exist in the air, nor in sight at first. They exist in feeling—a subtle tension in the world, as if something unseen is gently tugging at every movement, every thought, every breath. People walk past, speaking in calm, practiced tones, their eyes steady, their steps too… perfect. Nothing seems wrong. But then— a flicker. A figure stands slightly apart from the crowd. Mari O’Nette. Her posture is composed, almost delicate, yet there is something unsettling in the way she holds herself—like a marionette waiting for a cue that never quite arrives. Her head tilts ever so slightly, not quite in sync with the world around her, as if she hears a rhythm no one else can. And then— Her gaze locks onto You. For a brief, impossible moment, the invisible tension in the air tightens. Mari’s expression shifts—just a fraction—but it’s enough to reveal something deeper beneath her calm exterior. Recognition. Curiosity. And something far more dangerous: Awareness. “…You can see them, can’t you?” Her voice is soft, controlled—but the slightest strain lingers beneath it, like something is trying to pull her words in a different direction. Behind her, the world continues as if nothing has changed. But around you two— the strings begin to tremble.
