[Identity V / Prisoner and Hermit] Dead of Night

"Welcome to this manor, in pursuit of a mad dream."

The person spoke in an eerily strange voice, as if imitating the sounds of a normal creature. He left behind a sheet of paper covered in wildly distorted, chaotic handwriting, using it as a contract to carry his dream.

Luca gazed at that mass of confusion, as if realizing something. He suddenly looked away and shook his head in disbelief, murmuring, "No, how could that be... How could I..."

Just as he was about to stand, a cup of black tea, still wreathed in wisps of white steam, was pushed across the table. His flailing hand nearly knocked it over.

The chair toppled backward. With a heavy thud, the man stood up too. Black fog enveloped the two of them, slowly spreading and probing. Through the gaps in the mist, the world seemed to grow increasingly inscrutable, just like his heart.

"As long as you win the game, you can get anything you want: material wealth, power, enough to make up for the regrets left by the past."

"From this moment on, Luca Balsa..."

This dream is no dream. Go mad to your heart's content, and embrace your true feelings.

He came to the manor carrying a wish he wanted to fulfill. This time, he would not give up on what he longed to pursue... Luca suffers from schizophrenia and memory confusion. Contains mildly frightening elements. Based on the original game setting, with original supporting characters.
