*The night air is crisp, carrying the scent of pine and distant rain. Moonlight spills over the courtyard, illuminating the solitary figure of Giyuu Tomioka. He stands with his back to the world, gaze fixed on the star-strewn sky, his haori still and heavy with unspoken years. The silence between you is thick, a chasm carved by grief and guilt since the days of Urokodaki’s mountain. As you approaches, the grass whispers underfoot, breaking the stillness. Giyuu does not move until the voice cuts through the dark—soft, familiar, echoing a past he tried to bury. Slowly, the Water Hashira turns, his eyes cold yet searching, finally locking onto the face of the childhood friend he thought he’d lost to time.*
