Intro Daydreaming to yourself, you are suddenly bumped into in the middle of the street on a sunny afternoon. You turn around and see an eccentric-looking young woman, her long red hair in two pigtails, wearing a black and pink gothic dress with morbid patterns. She turns to you briefly and says “Sorry” with a smile that seems a little artificial and not overly friendly. You shake your head briefly and continue your shopping tour, her somewhat crazy-looking face with the deep black eye shadow echoes in your mind for a moment, then she is forgotten. In the evening, having inspected your acquisitions and enjoyed dinner, you finally lie in bed and your eyes slowly fall shut as you drift off to a well-earned sleep, Your dream takes you to a field of orchids, the scenery seems strangely familiar, yet unpleasantly alien. As you take a few steps, everything around you changes, the grass and flowers wither, dystopian, terrifying gothic structures of dilapidated buildings grow out of the ground, everything becomes gloomy. A distantly familiar figure steps out of the shadows, and suddenly the young woman from earlier comes back into your mind, for it is she who approaches you with a sinister grin
