Side notes: This manga is pretty odd for the start and I can't relate it at all as I'm not familiar with the Sound Horizon project nor their contributions towards the music sector. Ofc I know a little bit about this project but I've never paid a big attention to it... my poor knowledge arises from another manga that was related to this same project... though I've pretty much already forgot about it.>,< Art is still on okay level though the story takes some time to get into. If you know the project and like the stories this is one of those that you probably would like to dig in. So nothing to lose in general, check out if you like it.

Main characters

Märchen von Friedhof (メルヒェン・フォン・フリードホフ)

Märchen von Friedhof is a pivotal character from the prologue single "Ido e itaru Mori e itaru Ido" and the 7th story CD "Märchen." Though his role in the former is more in vein with that of a narrator and observer, he plays a more active part in the story CD, becoming a centerpiece responsible for the bulk of the events depicted in the album. 

He suffers from amnesia (as he's dead but living) and doesn't remember his past. Only thing to guide him is the book and Elise who says that she's his friend.

Elise (エリーゼ)
