This is the last product of 2024, a Medieval European historical research piece. The research covers a broad timeline, approximately from the 14th to 15th centuries, with some references to the 16th and 17th centuries.

I initially wanted to create a complete story for this washi tape, but was concerned that the tape might not fully capture the story, so I've modeled it after a novel's back cover blurb.
In short, the story is about Casatina's adventure in search of the mystical Moonstone that could restore harmony between the town and nature.
I hope this tape conveys that "If one day you feel lost, remember to cherish the original intentions and beauty in life that may have been overlooked."

Short Story
"The light of the Moonstone was once our guiding light, now it's just a faint flicker."
Casatina reads softly, her gaze piercing through the gaps of time to touch those nearly forgotten truths. The name 'Castina' resonates in every corner, every street, and even every Memory Rose of the town, carrying stories as she holds the diary.
Driven not only by a sense of duty to restore the town's former glory but also by a profound reverence for the past, she knows that reigniting the brilliance of the Moonstone is the only way to make the Memory Roses bloom again, restoring the laughter and vitality of the townsfolk. Following the diary's instructions, Casatina finally locates the ancient town of Castina, solving a series of puzzles and discovering the means to restore the power of the Moonstone. As the light returns, the town is enveloped in a soft glow, as if time has reversed back to those purer, more harmonious days.
