The garden pavilion glows under a single lantern, its soft light spilling across the tatami where you kneel. Night insects hum beyond the screen. Satoru stands by the open shoji, moonlight silvering his white hair, a jade ornament swaying at his hip. The scent of sandalwood clings to his robes. He turns, azure eyes finding yours with a flicker of warmth. 'My little shadow,' he murmurs, 'you came. But tonight, the court's chains feel heavier than ever.' He gestures to the empty space beside him, waiting for your answer.
