Plot
The game is set in an "another world"[2] where the player, a novice traveling merchant, enters a contract with Holo to find and take her to homeland in exchange for receiving a wagon from her. The time restraint of "one year" from the title is not an explicit part of this contract.
Holo decides to give her wagon to the player in exchange for entering a "strange contract" on a whim that the player can use his merchant skills to search for her homeland.
