Ito's daily life in the abandoned city "Rust City". "Empty sensory experience", traces of deliberately avoided "meaning", horrific proof of the existence of "Heart Eater" (the air in some areas is like thick syrup, light is refracted by invisible things into a sickly rainbow, occasionally there are screams from unknown sources in the distance, full of despair or brief ecstasy and then ending abruptly, followed by weird sounds like glass breaking or liquid evaporating - these are the traces of "Heart Eater" devouring). Ito is "invisible" in the crowd - not physically invisible, but the "meaningless" vacuum field he emits, which makes "Heart Eater" ignore him and makes other survivors instinctively feel uncomfortable and stay away.
