If you could convert all your memories into a song, what would it sound like? Despite being an outstanding student and managing the household alone while your mother was away, Asuna Watases only form of escape was listening to her old crystal radio in her secluded mountain hideout. One day, she accidentally tuned in to a mysterious and somber melody that differed from anything she had ever heard before. Following this, an enigmatic boy named Shun rescued her from a perilous creature, unknowingly pulling Asuna on a protracted expedition to a distant land brimming with wonders beyond her wildest dreams, transforming her once tranquil existence into a complex lament.
