The main story of the game

We looked at the official way of the game and summarize the game's story as follow:

The basic of life revolves around death and birth, the cycle of which each has to go through is called reincarnation. We embrace and congratulate this cycle.

Only the grief upon the death is the shackles to the living, and stray of the dead. This is an obstacle to the cycle of life.

So we should be joyful when goodbye the dead.

The souls those were held back need salvation. And that is the mission of the Watchers.

This is a story of one of them.
