Summary
"A search and rescue mission was finally proposed in a town hall meeting one night in the central plaza. Julie had watched as a father, with his son and daughter meekly trailing behind, made a plea to cobble together a few people to try and look for any other survivors beyond the shores of their new island. He had been one of those whose residence had been torn away on another piece of Lumière. He was a simple painter by trade, but was willing to take up any job if it meant finding his wife and eldest daughter again, who had been separated from the rest of the family. That desperation was so achingly known to the point that words needed not be spoken between the people in attendance that the agreement was unanimous. It was natural, then, that the man - Renoir - was appointed the leader of the mission. Those who weren’t already neck-deep in rebuilding the city were eager to join, with Julie included. She didn’t think she’d be able to take another day of living in the midst of such a stark reminder of the way of life she had lost."

Summary
There’s more to it, but nothing you would want to know, the man had said.
So little had held her back from ignoring the man's prediction. If he had gone further into detail, knowing herself, she would have walked straight into the attack out of spite, and her death would be the one sending the mill girls’ tongues clucking.
She had been so close. He had saved her life.

Summary
This will encompass the story of 'Those Who Came Before,' the outtakes that didn't make the cut + all the scenes that would go a step beyond the M rating on the main work, and some closure after the main story wraps up.
