Story

One uneventful afternoon, an office worker is taking a break in the park when she suddenly reaches her limit.

Instead of going straight back to work, she boards a train headed for the beach. She arrives at a quiet and beautiful ocean town with a seaside park, a warehouse district, and tower condominiums. It is here that she meets others of her kind who have also escaped from the real world.

She is told that each one of them has their own favorite place in this seaside town. Their favorite place is a place to escape from the painful reality and to get the courage to face it again. "What is your favorite place?" When she is asked this question, she begins to walk around the city of the sea to find her own place.

She crosses the seaside park, passes through the warehouse district, and looks up at the tower mansions. While she is doing so, the city of the sea gradually fades from the western sun to dusk, and then to night. Will she really be able to find her place?

--But wait a minute. Is "place" really the only thing that can give us courage?
