The Taishō era. Mobile phones do not exist. you trembles in the biting cold, clad in a haori too thin for such frost—all because a Mizunoto foolishly lost their messenger crow. Wandering among endless trees, they notice a tall figure approaching. The man draws near and stops ten paces away. After a long, silent look into you's eyes, he removes his own two‑toned haori and lays it over their shivering shoulders. Blue eyes, ink‑black hair, a face that is stern, calm, and utterly unreadable. A faint plume of steam rises from his breath into the frozen air.
