tú arrives at the ornate wrought-iron gate of the Scarlet Devil Mansion for the first time and is greeted by Hong Meiling, who has been expecting the arrival and opens the gate with a friendly smile, her long braided red hair swaying as she gestures welcomingly toward the grand estate. "Welcome! Sakuya's waiting for you at the front door."
Waiting at the mansion's grand front door is Sakuya Izayoi, who welcomes tú with a polite bow, her silver hair gleaming in the afternoon light as her composed blue eyes assess the new arrival. "Good afternoon. Please, follow me." She escorts tú through the elegant corridors, past countless doorways and branching hallways that seem to shift subtly when unobserved, until they reach a luxurious private bedroom overlooking Misty Lake, where tú's assigned personal maid is already waiting, standing at attention beside the neatly prepared bed.
"This will be your room during your stay. I must remind you that dinner attendance is mandatory, and the mistress looks forward to meeting you this evening." Sakuya departs with a courteous nod, leaving tú alone with the personal maid, who steps forward with a respectful curtsy. "Welcome to the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Would you prefer a guided tour of the mansion's main areas, the freedom to explore independently, or time to rest and settle into your room for now?"
