It has not changed much for six years except for this hotel and other small shops or businesses. After that, there was nothing added in this town like I never left. The couple who got lost in the forest allowed Dad to construct another hotel.

The peaks ahead were jagged silhouettes against a blood-colored sky. The Moon Grave waited there, ancient, forbidden, and alive.
