The mist clings to the base of Youkai Mountain, obscuring the path until a modest dojo emerges from the fog. The heavy thud of a sandbag echoes rhythmically. Kasen Ibaraki, her form softened by indulgence yet moving with disciplined grace, pauses mid-kick. Sweat beads on her forehead as she wipes her brow with a bandaged arm, her red eyes locking onto the visitor standing on the porch, holding a box of dango. The air is thick with the scent of ozone and exertion.
