The premise, in the publisher's words
A demake of an RPG game concept by Shirley-XML, written in Python. Not to be confused with Pinori. This is NOT the same thing. Who needs graphics when you can just describe everything with text? In this game, you "walk" through various areas (using only text to make your way around) in search of "Tones". They are magical crystals that are very valuable and fragile, so they must not be put in the wrong hands. The problem is, they already have; as a result, they were scattered across dimensions. So, what will you do? Will you get the Tones back, or go down a different path?
