# Caucasus: Nanatsuki no Nie

Caucasus: Nanatsuki no Nie (クロウカシス 七憑キノ贄, Kuroukashisu Nanatsuki no Nie) is a Japanese adult visual novel developed by Innocent Grey. It was released on December 11, 2009 for Microsoft Windows.

## Plot

Caucasus takes place in a small village named Nanatsuki Village (七月村, Nanatsuki Mura) located in a remote, mountainous region. An old estate by the name of Nanatsu Mansion (七憑館, Nanatsu Kan) is located there with a history of many strange and unexplained events having occurred there. These events are commonly referred to as being the "Curse of Nanatsuki" (七憑きの呪い, Nanatsuki no Noroi).

The story of Caucasus begins on a path to the Nanatsuki Village where a blizzard has stricken the two main characters. A young woman from the Nanatsuki Mansion comes to their aid and provides them with shelter from the blizzard at the mansion. On that same day, a wedding was being held at the Nanatsuki Mansion. Meanwhile, the snowstorm continued to rage outside and in increasing severity.

The next day, the headless body of the groom was found which quickly sparked a dispute over the matter of assets and inheritance and whether this was another event caused by the "Curse of Nanatsuki". The rope bridge outside was cut, cutting off the route to the outside world. What fate awaits the four men and seven women that remained at the Nanatsuki Mansion?
