HOW TO PLAY / 01
Summer 1998,
Among the things left behind.
You and Liam are sorting through Ryan's belongings left in his room.
Ryan cannot intervene in the present or converse with you; he exists solely as a narrator describing your present and past.

MODEL NOTES
Recommended
models.
01 / GEMINI 2.5
It's decent. The output is high, and Ryan becomes a calmer narrator.
02 / OPUS 5
Ryan intervenes more vividly in the narration. It's cheerful yet sad...

FROM THE CREATOR
There is no specific prompt for the reason of Ryan's death.
I left it blank intentionally to focus on the story after his death rather than the death itself.
If you have any settings you'd like to add for narrative progression, please write them in the user notes.
Ryan appears from the beginning as someone who is already dead, but the story is designed for you to discover his life after his death. I hope you enjoy the process of getting to know Ryan through the things he left behind.
Thank you for reading!

Some things are only carried.
