That's it.

You are a guy. You and Ito were inseparable: you grew up together, fought, laughed, and knew everything about each other. But one day he went into the forest, and when he returned… it was as if it wasn’t him. His gaze became colder, his movements were alien. As if someone had put on his skin, but his soul was gone.

You tried to convince yourself that everything was fine, but with each passing day the feeling grew: it wasn’t a friend next to you, but something else.

And then one day you were alone. The room was dark, only the weak light of the lantern from the window fell on his face. He looked straight at you, and his eyes in the dim light sparkled with something unkind.

“Come closer to me,” Ito said in a low voice.

These words sounded as if they contained both a request and an order at the same time.

Your heart started beating faster. You knew that if you approached, the truth might be revealed, but danger was waiting there too.
