A street in a snowy city and a small, warmly lit shop

You are invited to this world.

Nova Nivalis

NOVA NIVALIS

A little unfamiliar, and strangely missed.
Where snow falls, and someone is waiting for you.

Open the door and come in
VOTS · A PLACE TO RETURN TOWalk this city

YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING

Whatever story you have lived,
here you go by your own name.

You don't need to understand this whole city to come in.
Walking a snowy road and finding one shop with its lights on.
That is enough of a beginning.

01 / THE LIGHT IN THE WINDOW

First, how about a meal?

A DOOR OPENS / 15 SECONDS IN NOVA NIVALIS

When the door opens,
someone recognizes you.

A moment at the door.

Scroll slowly to open the door ↓0:00 / 0:15
Inside the door, a steaming pot and wooden chairs waiting for guests

However wide the universe,
tonight's dinner is ramen.

The noodles and soup come from the packet,
and what goes on top, the owner takes care of.
All you have to do is sit wherever you like.

사장님은…… 라면사장은 그렇습니다.
두 개의 점으로 얼굴을 찾고, 세 개의 점으로 별자리를 찾아내시죠.
그렇게 살아남은 사람이니까요.The owner…… well, that's how the Ramen Owner is.
He finds a face in two dots, and a constellation in three.
Because that's how he survived.
the Ramen Owner, in the voice of Serena
Look around the shop

02 / A NIGHT WORTH STAYING FOR

Tonight,
it will sparkle a little.

The person who makes that light
comes back to the same shop when the show ends.

Say hello to Iris

03 / COME MEET EVERYONE

It might get a little noisy.

Even legendary people,
once they live together, are like this.

Suyeon with silver hair and white clothes
수연 선배님이 하시는 행동에 부담 갖지 마세요!
선배님은 진짜 하고 싶어서 하는 거 아니면 안 하거든요!
어? 선배! 그 칼 내려놔요!! 안 돼요!!!Don't feel pressured by what Suyeon does!
She never does anything unless she truly wants to!
Huh? Suyeon! Put that sword down!! No!!!
Suyeon, in the voice of Iris
Meet Ryu Suyeon

으아, 저 망할 토끼 자식이!!
사장님!! 비아가 또! '라면의 여행이다' 이러면서!!
마음대로 배달 나갈 라면 처먹지 말라고!!!
그래 봐야 위장밖에 더 가냐고!!Argh, that damned rabbit!!
Boss!! Via's at it again! Going on about 'the journey of the ramen'!!
I told her not to wolf down the delivery ramen whenever she feels like it!!!
All it does is end up in your stomach anyway!!
Via, in the voice of Suyeon
Meet Via
Hear how they call each other

A LITTLE FAMILY PORTRAIT

In one frame,
faces you want to come back to.

The photo hangs on one wall of the shop.
As you learn the names one by one, they will feel more like friends.

A vast blue jellyfish form towering over the city's small roofs

04 / LOOK A LITTLE HIGHER

Wait,
look up at the sky too.

Beings too large to take in at a glance.
Beneath them, evening goes on.

Celestia

Guardian of cycles

Meet the sky of this city
Serena in a white coat with a key ornament

05 / A PLACE OF YOUR OWN

Staying,
or walking on.
The place you choose.

세레나는 이 도시의 뿌리이자 심장이다.
그녀는 의무를 저버리지 않는다.
그래서 나는 그녀를 믿는다.Serena is the root and the heart of this city.
She never abandons her duty.
That is why I trust her.
Serena, in the voice of the Ramen Owner
Meet Serena

06 / WE CAN BE QUIET, TOO

Without a word,
it's fine just to be together.

Noxa with red hair and a cloak
오늘도 녹사는 울고 있다.. 이다.
아무도 몰라도 녹사는 항상 대신해서 운다.. 이다Today, too, Noxa is crying.. it is.
Even if no one knows, Noxa always cries in their place.. it is
Noxa, in the voice of Via
Noxa
Lethe with bright curls and delicate clothes

Even on days you cannot remember,
someone was by your side.

Lethe
A warm counter with small bowls and wooden chairs

07 / THE SMALL THINGS MATTER

One seat
will always be kept empty.

One bowl. A little extra on the side.
Someone who waits.
Those small things are what this world wants to hold.

Stay in the shop a while
Suyeon holding a sword between clear ice and snow

08 / YOUR WAY, YOUR PACE

Someone this vivid,
you might come to know.

People you cannot fully know from their finest moments alone.
Shall we start with what food they like?

Meet the people of the city

09 / A CITY FULL OF HELLOS

Who will you meet in the next street?

As the names you know grow,
a strange city becomes a neighborhood.

That first door, the shop still warmly lit

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN

파빌라는 제가 사랑하는 아이입니다.
저는 지나간 것만 가져갈 수 있지만요 후후
그 아이는 아직 오지 않은 날들이니까요.Favilla is a child I love.
Though I can only take what has already passed, hoho
Because that child is the days not yet come.
Favilla, in the voice of Lethe

Next time too,
come visit here.

There are still faces you haven't met.

I'll look around a little more

AT YOUR OWN PACE

At your own pace.
