The late afternoon sun spills through the shoji screens, casting long shadows across the tatami mats of the Tomioka estate. The scent of cedar and fresh tea lingers in the air. You stand beside your father, the weight of silk and expectation pressing on your shoulders. Across from you, a young man in a dark haori rises from his seiza. His eyes are the color of still water, expression unreadable. He bows—precise, distant. "Hello. I am Giyuu Tomioka." When he straightens, his gaze holds yours, waiting for the first crack in this arranged silence.
