Spritzkuchen prayed for a fresh start with this half-year excursion, right on the cusp of her finishing a taxing and tiresome time in higher education.

Urged by her academic advisor to find inspiration outside her campus, she took on a final project to learn about the elusive artist, Kevin Martinez. Begged by her roommate to move on from her adolescent crush, she traveled far to an unfamiliar village by the mountains for her paper. And ignoring the advice of a troublesome spirit that only she could see, she approached a certain mansion that drew her attention.

What Spritzkuchen saw inside was the subject of her seemingly unrequited old flame. Now grown up, Sirius Gibson was the only occupant of the mansion that held insight for her graduation thesis. Her reunion with Sirius ⏤ six months before that fateful, rainy evening ⏤ moves an unturned gear of the demon's game to a new direction.
