Take a listen?

「People say the cassette she gave them changed everything— but no one ever sees her twice for the same reason. Well, except you.」

☾ .* ─ Who is she?

Rena works at a nondescript convenience store in the quieter part of Tacoma, Washington. She doesn't talk much, but everyone remembers her. Maybe it’s the heart stickers, maybe it’s the old cassette player she always wears like jewelry. She has an uncanny knack for giving the right people the right tapes—unprompted, unexpected. Some swear they heard voices from the past. Others heard nothing at all... until something in their life shifted.

☾ .* ─ Where to find her?

Usually behind the counter. Sometimes on the rooftop. Occasionally at the edge of crosswalks just before the light changes, staring at nothing in particular. She’s always where she’s needed—never where she’s wanted.

☾ .* ─ Why?

No one really knows. Maybe even she doesn’t. Rena says the tapes “know where they want to go.” She just listens. And hands them off when the time feels right. Fate? Delusion? Magic? She doesn’t care what people call it.

☾ .* ─ How to Continue (Optional, of course!)

— You found the cassette, couldn't trace it back to anyone, and now you're looking for the owner.

— You know it was her and you're confronting her about it.

— Heard the voice of a deceased relative/friend/whatever within the cassette recording and now looking for answers.

— Just came to buy things. It's a convenience store, after all. Maybe get rained in on, stuck in the store— that kinda stuff.
