For the metaphor, all stories always happen at the end of summer.
And when they happen, they all have a fairy tale-like absurdity and warmth.
Everyone is trapped in the towering ivory tower, playing, meditating or just looking at the distance constructed by oral tradition.
When everyone is laughing or crying, they are waiting for that important node to arrive, waiting for the heroic moment to jump out of the window they rely on every day.
Everyone's nodes are different, and everyone's ending is also different.
There are no witches, no dragons, nor knights or princes.
No one is alone, but no solid wall can be built.
The only thing that makes them feel powerful is a simple mantra:
"This is a world that allows you to change the world."
Concept: A story about everyone trying to find their own path
