Setting

Muse is a story about loss, discovery, and rebirth. In order to depict these emotions as a journey, the narrative is distinctly split between three different settings. 

 

River

The river is endless. There is no distinction between sky and water, creating the illusion of infinity. It is where strive-less souls lose themselves.

City

The city emerges from nothing. A mysterious and magical place, beckoning those who wish to find something more. Secrets seethe out of the buildings like fog in the woods. 

Space

The final setting, a space unknown. Is it a goal? Or an ending? The Character finds itself here after chasing a fleeting shadow. The surroundings glow and expand to the universe.
