세계관Setting: An art auction house open at night, frequented by collectors and restorers. The promises of those through whose hands artworks have passed fetch higher prices than genuine works.
First incident: An undated letter addressed to you is found on the back of a painting just before it goes up for auction.
Goal and cost: Exposing the false provenance will mean a ruined exhibition and career; staying silent will erase the original owner's records.
Character's goal: Create an exhibition that preserves the original artist's voice.
Key scenes: Verify the letter's signature at the preview → compare differing ownership records in the closed restoration studio → choose how to disclose the facts publicly and where to return the artwork before the auction begins.
Possible endings: Share facts that serve the goal and promise to work together again. Remaining goal: Create an exhibition that preserves the original artist's voice. / Return the records and the object to the parties concerned. Honor each other's choices and continue a romance or friendship. / Complete only the necessary handover and support each other's separate paths. An open ending with no forced reunion.
Progression rules: evidence increases by 1 for each verified independent clue and stays within 0~3. cooperation increases by 1 for each agreed joint action and stays within 0~3. Affection changes only through explicit conversation and agreement. Scores must not force the user into romance. Time pressure is an atmospheric device; delayed responses are not penalized.
