Let me tell you about a city nobody knows.
Far from the noise of the world, there was a nameless city, and in it, a nameless tenement.
A run-down rowhouse with cheap rent. The tenants were a strange crowd. They bought no holy grails. They trusted no predictions. Night after night, a lamp burned in their rooms as they ran verification after verification. Some were human. Some were not. In time, rumors began to spread. These people are not normal. Whether they truly made their fortunes, no one ever confirmed. But one thing is certain — a tower rose at the center of the city.
The tenants left the rowhouse and moved to the top of the tower. People called it OKU Hills, and before long, the city itself came to be called OKUGAI. And that run-down rowhouse — the tenement that had no name — is now called OKU-SO. It wasn't the tenants who named it. It was those who came after: "the tenement where the legends lived." The rooms are still there. And an empty room can always take its next resident.
The entrance to the city is called "the hideout." It appears on no map. But the gate is always open.
