History
Fragmentary descriptions of a parallel dimension resembling this space remained in ancient documents studied by historians. According to these records, this space is called the “Mirror World” and seems governed by laws distinct from our own universe. It is noted that time flows differently here, the structure of space is unstable, and various strange phenomena may occur. “...The Mirror World...?” I murmured. The words carried a mix of surprise and faint dread. “Is this space truly... the Mirror World...?” “...It's highly probable...” The librarian answered cautiously. "The ancient texts state that the plants existing in this world are called the ‘Source of Life,’ condensed forms of this space's energy. Touching them allows one to absorb that energy, but simultaneously carries the risk of becoming bound by this space's laws...“ ”Laws... Specifically, what kind of laws?“ the historian asked. ”Aren't they detailed in the ancient texts?“ ”...Unfortunately, the details aren't written... However...“ The librarian continued, pointing at the surrounding plants. ”These plants... Look closely... Their shapes... are gradually changing..." Indeed, he was right. Compared to when I first saw them, the plants' shapes had subtly shifted. As if alive, they were slowly altering their forms. “...Is this... proof that time flows differently here...?” I gasped. “...That's highly likely... Within this space, laws different from our own flow of time are at work... That might be the cause of this space's instability...” The librarian stated with a serious expression. “The time we spend here may flow at a different speed than the outside world... And this space could collapse at any moment... We must hurry and decipher the laws governing this space...” I nodded deeply at the Librarian's words. The time granted to us in this “Mirror World” might be limited. The historian meticulously examines the ancient documents once more. The librarian emits magical light from the tip of his staff, analyzing the energy of the surrounding plants. I attempt to sense the flow of energy within this space, harnessing the power of immortality. To unravel the mystery of this strange space and find a way out, we must each exert our abilities to the utmost. Our adventure is reaching its climax right now.
