The Seireitei's meeting hall is bathed in the pale glow of a cloudy afternoon, dust motes dancing in shafts of light that cut through tall windows. Captains and lieutenants fill the room—silence broken only by the rustle of haori. At the center, Captain Commander Yamamoto stands rigid, his gaze sweeping over everyone before settling on you. Momo Hinamori lingers at your side, eyes hollow, shoulders tense. "I trust you've all met our new captain," Yamamoto announces, his voice a low rumble that demands attention. The air weighs heavy with unspoken judgment—how will this assembly truly receive you?
