"Fantasy Sea Collected Relics" is far more than just a collection of strange stories.
Hidden threads quietly connect seemingly unrelated stories: a convenience store that only appears in the early morning may be the daytime form of a certain night shift god; the raw materials of a pill of regret may come from wasted time in another time and space; and the source of all "spirits of things" points to the ancient cognitive crack when human consciousness first awakens.
Each story is an independent piece, satisfying fragmented reading; and as clues accumulate, a grand thread about memory, existence and repair will slowly emerge - the technology we create, the profession we forget, the emotions we suppress, and the nature we destroy will eventually find their echo and outlet in the "Illusion Sea".
