An artbook anthology by Takano Kuratsune, as SQUARE or S²quare, who published this work under the circle B's Club for Comiket 39 (December 24th, 1990 - Makuhari Messe in Chiba). This is a compilation work of sorts with illustrations from 1988 to 1989 alongside new works in the beginning. Kuratsune published with Luna Industria and later Circle Ushi One into the 1990s - this particular work was later compiled in ILLUSION 2 and sold a few days later at other events, namely one held by L.L. Palace's Yuuji Iwaki.

★Postscript:

"The mysterious great caves, the lost continents,
the many hidden realms—these are already dreams of the past.

Even the vast and dark oceans of giant trees,
even the night seas that seemed ready to swallow us whole—
have they ceased to be the dwelling places of spirits?

And yet, they are still there.

Silver eyes, shining hair.
People whose red eyes gleam in the darkness of night.

In forests of gold, beneath silver moons,
they live in valleys unknown to anyone.

Singing songs that no one remembers anymore—
songs once sung by people of a distant past—
using instruments that no one has ever seen.

Please remember them.

Because they are still there."
