After singing a forbidden song, however, Diva’s memory and singing functionality are sealed away, causing her to lose her livelihood and music itself. In her despair, Diva discards her “human” body and, going with the flow, accepts an invitation from a secret society, leaving Avalon behind.
- Tsunanori Mido (PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4) – A man who can manipulate kugutsu, or animated puppets, protecting the barrier around his home, Miyako City.

- Ameya (Nintendo Switch) – A witch-in-training who visits Miyako City and lives in secret as a schoolgirl as a part of her graduation exam.
