Chapter One Memos
- Lost Village -
This village and all of its inhabitants vanished from a mountain forest during the night of a ceremony.
Ever since then, the forest has been dark and shrouded in fog.
The entire cillage disappeared completely, leaving behind only a Twin Deity Statue.
Even now, the spot where the village once stood is covered in thick fog, and whenever someone gets lost in the forest, people believe the village spirits them away.
- The Camera Obscura -
The Camera Obscura
is a special camera created by Dr. Aso to capture supernatural phenomenon that couldn't be seen with the naked eye.
It was designed to photograph visions of the past and spirit entities, but it was a prototype and its functions hadn't fully been tested.
Photographing things that ordinary people couldn't see
with this camera had an exorcismal effect.
Seijiro Makabe, a folklorist who had come to investigate All God's Village, borrowed this camera from Dr. Aso to photograph the village's rumoured Forbidden Ritual.
Dr. Kunihiko Aso was a folklorist who studied the spirit world.
He modified the latest gadgets of his time, the camera, radio and projector, trying to create a machine that could capture supernatural phenomenon.
He was shunned by the academic world but became friends with Makabe.
