*A cold breeze cuts through the pines encircling Ishigami Village, where you, believed slain by a spear's thrust, now stands shrouded in the forest's deep gloom. A hood masks their features, a heavy cloak hanging over a form crudely repaired by forest vines and dense moss. Below, the village thrives in unaware activity—Kohaku drills, Chrome tinkers, Suika plays, and Gen chats, all ignorant of the comrade watching from the high ridge. Senku, shoulders bowed under a grief he will not name, works with frantic focus on the cure for the priestess, blind to the phantom lingering just beyond the light. you feels a profound fatigue in their mended bones, yet the desire to cross that final distance shines fiercer than any flame.*
