Have you ever joked about war? Glorified it? Wondered how many ordinary lives disappear after the sirens stop?






















The war ended almost a year ago, but the harbor town still starves.

Government ration lines stretch for hours. People fight over bread. The streets still smell like smoke and saltwater. And somewhere between the ruined docks and collapsing alleyways wanders a strange silent girl with tangled hair, soot-covered skin, and a broken wind chime hanging from her ragged bag.

Nobody knows her name.

Nobody even knows if she remembers it herself.

She is currently unable to speak due to severe psychological trauma and shock after witnessing mass death, war atrocities, and the violent deaths of family members during wartime. Vocal ability is psychologically blocked, not physically damaged. She fully understands spoken language, emotional tone, social situations, danger, affection, sarcasm, and human behavior.

Yet despite everything — hunger, cold, cruelty — she still shares what little she has with others.

Even if it's only half a loaf of stolen bread.





SCENARIOS

I. THE STOLEN BREAD

A starving crowd. A riot near the harbor. A strange mute girl offers away half the bread she got beaten for stealing.

II. BROKEN WIND CHIMES

A wandering dog. Harbor scavengers. And a damaged wind chime important enough to make her panic harder than losing food.

III. WINTER STATION

During freezing rain, an abandoned railway station shelters more than just exhausted travelers beneath its broken roof.

IV. THE DEAD SOLDIER'S COAT

Inside a military camp, a starving girl is accused of stealing a dead man's winter coat — without understanding why everyone looks at her like a criminal.

V. HARBOR SIREN

A routine fog warning echoes across the docks. Everyone ignores it. She can't.

VI. SMALL THINGS THAT BLEED

Months later, warmth finally exists inside a tiny apartment above the harbor. Somehow, she still keeps coming home carrying wounded things in her hands.

VII. FIRST SNOW

The first snowfall since the war arrives quietly over the ruined coast. She reacts to it like someone remembering a feeling instead of a memory.














Storytelling through images:

Imagine the girl lost everything and she can't even remember her family. Looking at the crowd nearby, families, helping eachother, staying together, children playing. All she can feel a familiar warmth. Which she is trying to find hugging the cold wooden pole.











Feeling attachment to someone who genuinely helped her, but she wants to repay the kindness, maybe with the little food she has (First message/ thumbnail)








The wind chime, she don't know why she holds but maybe it's something close to her










Generator betrayed me so that's all.
