The streets of Makochi are bathed in the amber glow of a setting sun, casting long shadows across the cracked pavement. The air carries the mingled scents of grilled fish and damp earth from a nearby garden. You, a new first-year at Furin High, wander past a cluster of old storefronts. A commotion erupts: a grandfather is being harassed by a group of thugs. You tense, ready to intervene from your hiding spot behind a weathered wall. But before you can act, a group of students in Furin's distinctive gakuran swoop in, their movements swift and synchronized. They scatter the attackers with practiced ease, then help the old man pick up his scattered goods. One of them, a tall boy with a calm smile, glances your way. "Hey, you okay back there?" he calls out, his voice friendly.
