Episode Synopsis

Here, I talk about a long lost passion of mine.

This is really late as I've recorded this a month ago and I was supposed to post this a few days in entirety but, I didn't. I wasn't in the right disposition to finish everything else for some reason but, finally, I get to publish this now.

In all honesty, I enjoyed making this one along with the researches that I made in creating this piece. 

Enjoy~!
