Unused CG

Early Final
Unused HDN1 Vert cutscene (draft ver.).jpeg Unused HDN1 Vert cutscene.jpeg

An unused cutscene would show Vert changing into her attire, only to be interrupted by the main protagonists (which, depending on which version came out, are either the main party from the final game, or the male MC from the initial prototype).
