『Roman』 KICS-91286 (First Press Limited Edition); KICS-1286 (Regular Edition) "Where is the story in るのだろうか..." (Is there a story there...) Sound Horizon was The first Story CD released after being absorbed by King Records, the company, has the theme of "The recurring story of morning and night, life and death." This work invites a large number of musicians and famous voice actors to participate in the production, which is unmatched by previous works, forming a huge work. "Roman" means "story" in French, and its katakana form "ロマン" has a broader meaning in Japanese. "Roman" tells the story of Hiver's journey as he asks the twin girl dolls Violette and Hortense to find a story that will allow him to be born in the world of Roman. The story takes place on a medieval French-style stage and depicts the story of people named Laurent struggling between life and death to explore the meaning of life and death. In the end, after Hiver and his twin dolls experienced countless reincarnations, he finally found the "truth" of the story of his birth. There are also many mechanisms in the lyrics book of this work, and their design can be said to be one of the pinnacles of the hidden puzzles in the CD. For example, there are moon-shaped holes in the lyrics book, through which you can see the lyrics written on the front and back pages. There is also coded text on the lyrics book, which cannot be deciphered without finding clues hidden somewhere on the CD. Hidden audio tracks are not hidden in the CD, but can only be downloaded by solving a pre-set puzzle.
