How Silent Hill F Is Connected To The Rest Of The Series

Here is a 194-word summary of the key points from the article: The new Silent Hill game, Silent Hill f, is connected to the rest of the Silent Hill series in several ways. The game's protagonist, Hinako, has been taking a natural medicine called Kakura-Makakura, which is made from a hallucinogenic herb known as Hakkokusou or "the flower of the gods." This herb allows the user to communicate with gods and visit their realms, which is what happens to Hinako in the game. Hakkokusou is revealed to be the same as the White Claudia herb featured in previous Silent Hill games. White Claudia and its refined liquid form, Aglaophotis, have played important roles in the series, being used by the cult in the first game and appearing as a treasured item in Silent Hill 3. The article also notes that the medicine bottle required for Silent Hill f's "Fox Wedding" ending contains a red liquid similar to Aglaophotis. Overall, while Silent Hill f takes place in a different location, it is firmly connected to the lore and themes of the wider Silent Hill universe through its use of the Hakkokusou/White Claudia herb and its hallucinogenic properties.
