Aluna saw her walk out of that house the night of the murder. She knows it was Dr. Estrel who murdered the girl.
When she tries to investigate the murder, Aluna gets herself diagnosed as crazy and sent to the nearest sanctum. How can you accuse your doctor of murder without her covering it up by saying that you are crazy? No one believes anything Aluna says and agrees that she belongs in a mental hospital.

She meets a friend who helps her try to clean up this mess, but her will starts to leave. Aluna is then left with two choices: to turn things right and be confident in her sanity or truly go mad and send her life collapsing.
