How to Java GUI?
SceneBuilder, good luck!

Does anybody have a use-case for Scala WASM compilation target?
Can't argue with that, but to me it seems that things have substantially deteriorated since desktop GUIs fell out of fashion. Maybe that tells you more about my age than about the state of the art, but in the 90's one could "learn" GUI programming in about 30min in a RAD tool by throwing controls in containers and implementing callback functions in "direct style" for the event (Qt , swing, Java/ScalaFX, Gtk, Forms, delphi, …), or do all that in code instead, with objects representing components and inheritance/OOP doing wonders to encapsulate state, expose a type-safe discoverable API, and offer customizability through members override. Entire generations of corporate monks made visually and functionally convincing business apps with VBA in an afternoon for instance.

Yes it does[1] and it works on Desktop, mobile and web.
JavaFX has SceneBuilder[2] which also fit the description but for some reason, it never caught on. Gluon seems to have that work not only on desktop, but also on mobile.

Is there a way to package an interpreter with a story?
Here's the github repo, it was just open sourced last week. You can compile it from source now, and I imagine the UI frontends will be updated in a couple of weeks. IIRC, compiling directly to other languages is now possible, although I'm not sure how much that impacts your use case.
