Chapter Two marks a major shift in Luna’s journey—both emotionally and narratively. After a quiet and lonely arrival, Luna is introduced to her new environment and her first connections. The chapter starts with her isolation in the unfamiliar apartment, emphasizing her vulnerability and disconnection. That silence is broken by the arrival of Yui Takahashi, a friendly, seemingly harmless neighbor who helps reintroduce warmth into Luna’s life. This moment is meant to offer brief comfort and set a contrast for the darker tension that will soon build.

  Yui serves as Luna’s guide to the new town and her first friend. Their growing bond gives Luna a sense of safety—but also creates a baseline of “normal” that makes what follows with Aya feel all the more eerie and consuming.
