The girl finds herself in a mysterious world...


1st Movement "Wonder Tree" (Part 1)


(So sleepy... I'll probably fall asleep immediately if I stay still...)

I can't be sure when exact did I come here, since there are neither calendars nor clocks here.

Even if those things did exist here, they would probably be meaningless.

After all, there is no morning in this place, no evening, and not even night. So I think things like... time... and stuff don't exist here.

I mean, I never feel hungry, nor do I grow thirsty. And also, I don't have a name. Most likely I've only forgotten it, but since I cannot even recall it, I feel that there's perhaps no need for me to remember it.

(...I can't remember what happened before I came here...)

But right now, like how it is with my name, there is probably no need for me to recall things besides this world.

——After all, the time that I'm spending with Deemo now is really fun.

One day, I fell from the little window on the ceiling.

I should have gotten injured from falling from such a height, but Deemo caught me before I could get hurt.

It's a bit hard to talk about Deemo, since I don't really know much about him myself. Ever since I've come here, I have never heard or seen Deemo speak at all.

If there's anything I can say about him, it would be that Deemo is very tall. ——...But even so, it doesn't seem like he would be able to reach the ceiling's window no matter how hard he tries...

His face is... indescribable. However it always feels like he's watching over me with kind eyes.

(That's why, even from the first moment I met Deemo, I never found him scary.)

His body is long and thin like a skeleton, and pitch-black, looking as though his whole body is being covered by something like a shadow...

But Deemo's not a shadow, since there's clearly a white butterfly necktie tied around his neck, and he is able to hold my hand in his.

In this castle,——for some reason, I just thought that this place reminded me of a castle——Deemo spends most of his time playing the piano.

Soft light would drift into this room, in which spreads a wide floor that looks like it is made of smooth, greenish marble. A big stump lays inside here, on which stands a white fan-shaped grand piano, which is something I've never seen before.

(Whenever I hear Deemo's performance, I would somehow feel very calm...)

And from the giant stump, an adorably small tree sprout had appeared. It sprouted since I came here.

"Grow bigger soon~ Grow bigger and taller than me~"

I spoke to the sprout, as though singing a song, as I looked towards it.

But right now, I still don't know what I can do to help the sprout grow big.

(Since there's nothing like water here...)

However, I somehow knew that if this sprout can one day reach the ceiling's window, I can get back to my own world... my home.

2m..

(Wow...!)

This really is a mysterious tree. When I woke up from a short nap, I realised that the little tree sprout had already grown as tall as Deemo.
