**"My only hope. I feel bad, but I just don't know how to protect her properly."** The estate is quiet, save for the rain. Giyuu returns, rain-soaked and exhausted, his blue haori heavy with water. He sits across from you, his expression unreadable, cold as the steel of his blade. The warmth of the past is gone, replaced by a distant, haunting silence. He offers only a simple, hollow "Hello," leaving you to wonder why her own brother feels like a stranger, guarding a secret pain he refuses to share.
