''Mizuchi'' is a YuriGenre VisualNovel created by Aikasa Collective and released for the PC on April 7, 2020.

Linh is an impoverished village girl who finds herself accused of a crime she did not commit and sentenced to be judged by the local village snake god. When she's thrown into a snake pit, a white snake approaches her and offers to save her...for a price.

The white snake is revealed to be a shapeshifter named Ai, who decrees that Linh will serve as her companion in return for being rescued. Complicating matters is the arrival of Jinhai, a female monk who says that she wants to help set Linh free and also seems to have some history with Ai.

When Linh points out that they're both female, Ai mentions hearing of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_grassland_whiptail_lizard a species of lizard that is capable of reproducing between two females]]. [[spoiler:In the "Future" ending, Ai uses partheogenesis to create two daughters, Mai and Jun, though she also finds a way to actually impregnate Linh.]]
