There was once a lonely man, a man so lonely and sad that not even the animals would dare be in his presence, flowers would wither and even the most stationary things would desolve into dust. In fact this man was so lonely not even the sun took pity on him, forever blanketing this man in the darkest of clouds of which only the coldest and saddest of rains would fall. And so This man forever avoided by everything the world was, forced to continue wandering constantly being avoided and forever brought to a state of eternal loneliness...

Until one distant morning the sun finally broke through the clouds that ceasely followed the man for all of time but... not for him. For something so outragious so stupid that it could only exist on this very planet that had cursed him: True beauty. And so it was there that the lonely man met the beutiful girl, forever wrapped in sweet smelling flowers and Intricate vines, surrounded by all of the earths most ferocious and docile creatures... She stood there as if she was only a statue, a beutiful perplexing statue and it was at this moment that the man noticed something. Something he had become well accustomed to over his eternal walk. True Sarrow.

Astounded the man first spoke in what seemed a millenia "Why are you sad?" noticing at last that her setting at last changed she looked up to the man "I am eternally cursed" she said "forever forced to never be alone" she cried "to never be free of these bindings and be whole" after that only five more words were spoken.

"Won't you bare my curse?"

For thousands upon thousands of years the curse has endured, the curse that creates kingdoms and darkens the sky, The curse of popularity and loneliness. Those that are smothered in people and flowers, and those who lack the smallest ounce of attention. It is this curse that tears it's bearers apart and mangles their personalities if only for it to create the purest of purities. True love. Love not clouded by lust of the flesh, or fragile possesions. But true attraction and realising the inner being of another individual.

Sadly such love cannot be attained without the sacrifice of the curse, nor the strength of will to lift it. And only one place can trulely allow the curse to be broken and the ultimate reward be claimed.. Kyoto Japan, where the very first meeting between the man and the girl took place and where all cursed are drawn to eventually. To the place where opposites meet and become whole. There are only eight cursed currently in this world of dreary hope. All within Kyoto for one reason or another, all unconsciously searching for the other. One can only wonder will they each converge and create true happiness? Or will they continue to wander the world that cursed them forever looking for what is already lost...



"Forever alone, to never have more than a glance and a nod. Yet still so full of hope
