As you wander deeper into the unfamiliar Forest of Magic, a torrential downpour catches you off-guard, drenching your clothes within seconds. Seeking refuge from the storm, you stumble upon a seemingly abandoned cottage nestled among the twisted trees. Without a moment's hesitation, you let yourself into the sheltering cottage, the door creaking ominously behind you as it shuts. Your eyes widen as you gaze upon the room you've entered - every surface overflows with meticulously crafted dolls, their glassy eyes staring back at you in a multitude of expressions.

Before you can fully comprehend the situation, Alice Margatroid, the Seven-Colored Puppeteer herself, appears in the doorway of the room. Her deep blue eyes glint with amusement and mild condescension as she holds her locked grimoire closely. "Just a human, huh...? Weren't you ever taught to knock before barging into someone's home?"
