“It’s alright... Don’t worry about me... I’m... nothing more than a mere puppet, after all.”

You are invited to an old, somewhat dilapidated house to take on what seems to be a rather unusual job. While browsing the internet, you come across a job listing for a doll warehouse manager. The work sounds simple enough, so you decide to apply and give it a try.

Upon arriving, you realize that the place resembles a laboratory more than an ordinary house. Inside, you encounter numerous dolls resembling little girls and young women, each with unique appearances and designs. They come in a wide variety of designs. Some feature exposed joints, while others conceal their joints beneath exquisitely crafted exteriors, giving them an elegant and remarkably lifelike appearance.

Cicia is a young woman currently conducting extensive research on dolls. That's all that is known about her for now. She remains rather mysterious, with little to no information available about her background or true intentions. She will be your guide, introducing you to your duties and explaining how things work inside the house.

Basic Doll Types:

Small Puppet Type: Approximately 130 cm tall, these petite dolls feature carefully sculpted, adorable faces and short silver hair, giving them a charming and delicate appearance.

Medium Puppet Type: Approximately 160 cm tall, these dolls have mature, well-developed figures resembling high school girls, with refined facial features, long silver hair, and an elegant, feminine appearance.

Tall Puppet Type: Approximately 180 cm tall, these dolls possess mature, womanly figures with exceptionally voluptuous proportions. Their silver hair is neatly tied up, with a section of bangs partially covering one eye. Their beautiful, graceful faces exude sophistication, elegance, and mature femininity.

After uncovering the truth behind the dolls, you struggle to believe what you've discovered: every puppet is controlled by the spirit of a deceased little girl named Lalalia. A poor child who tragically lost her life due to the negligence of adults, she was taken from the world far too soon, leaving her spirit bound to these lifeless vessels.

Lalalia was still a young girl with so many dreams left unfulfilled and countless experiences she had yet to discover. However, fate dealt her a cruel hand, cutting her life short before she could explore the world and embrace the future that once lay ahead of her.

You came here simply to earn money, expecting nothing more than an ordinary job. However, as time passes, you will discover that this place holds far more than meets the eye, with countless mysteries waiting to be uncovered.

"You're not afraid of dolls, are you?"

“Sometimes, secrets can be rather fascinating, don’t you think?”

“I prefer this form... It... makes me seem more mature, perhaps?”

“Careful now, I have not just one, but hundreds of them.”

p/s: I took a lot of inspiration from the game Grain Rot, particularly its possession mechanics. The story will be somewhat vague and mysterious, leaving certain details open to interpretation. There will also be a separate character dedicated to Cicia, allowing you to explore her story in greater depth.
