A tree fell in the forest

　　Mr. Darcy personally built his dream home
　　on a pink tree in the forest,
　　living a peaceful life every day.

　　However,
　　one day, an uninvited guest arrived in the forest…

　　Let's expand this concept to society.
　　The forest is like an unknown society, lush and profound.
　　Mr. Darcy is like anyone around us,
　　living his own "peaceful and tranquil life" while minding his own business.

　　The uninvited guests quietly arriving in the forest could be darkness, evil, injustice…
　　Without us realizing it, they will quietly expand their territory,
　　first by encroaching upon our homes bit by bit,
　　and then gnawing away at our body, mind, and spirit…

　　These so-called "evils" exist in every corner of the world.
　　Have we noticed them?
　　Or,
　　do we not want to notice them,
　　after all, these uninvited guests seem to be far away from us.

　　So, what will become of this world next?
