Synopsis (Kichi’s Memorandum)
(Note: This is an unofficial English translation of the synopsis from the website.)

''“It has been six years since Saga disappeared. If nothing is done, it will disappear from people’s hearts, as well. Even if it dies, I will have to revive it, either way. I have to take action. That was when I met that person, someone who told me that my ambition was wonderful. It was but a trivial matter, yet it made such a difference to the world I lived in.”''

-From the memorandum of a youth in the “Saga Prefectural Museum of History”
