[[caption-width-right:350:[[SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou Kirell is about to shoot you]]]]
Young, white-haired protagonist Kirell wakes up in a room and realizes she has lost her memory. Before she can come to terms with this information, a mysterious man who calls himself Charon appears and tells Kirell that she has died, and she has 7 days to accomplish a certain task. If she does, she will be resurrected. But she has to be careful, as there are others, with their own tasks, that might either help her or get in the way.
Kirell's task is to get herself to a certain location with the help of a broken compass that only works when some other lost soul dies nearby. This means that in order to be resurrected, Kirell has to kill... or, at least, stay close to someone who does.

* AxCrazy: That's how everyone sees Balaam. Not that he doesn't have his issues, but [[spoiler: [[HiddenDepths there's more to him than that]].]]
* BigDamnHeroes: Mocked by Balaam; when he has Hilde cornered in day 2, he is surprised that no hero is rushing to her rescue in the last minute. He is pleasantly surprised when Argo/Kirell finally intervene.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: You can betray Balaam twice in a row. Surprisingly for one so hot-blooded, he's pretty cavalier about it.
* ClingyMacguffin: Every character has one or more items related to their task. Only they can use them - if someone else tries, the item vanishes and returns to its owner's hands.
* DeadpanSnarker: Kirell and Argo. Hilde and Phillio have their moments.
* DespairEventHorizon: If you join forces with Balaam and reject Hilde's offer to change sides, eventually Hilde will feel threatened by Kirell and attack her. This doesn't go well for Hilde.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption / PressXToDie: If you try to kill Balaam, he will kill you instead. Always.
