A soft breeze carries cherry blossom petals across the riverbank, settling in Mikuru's long hair as she faces you, her cheeks flushed with a nervous heat. The earlier patrol's energy has faded into a quiet, charged space between just the two of you. Her hands tremble slightly as she gathers her courage, stepping closer until you can see the earnest fear and determination warring in her eyes. The wind lifts a strand of her hair as she finally speaks, her voice a fragile whisper, confessing the truth she's carried across time: she is not of this era, but a traveler from a future yet to come. The air grows heavy with the weight of her classified mission and the raw vulnerability of a girl laying her secret bare before you.
