The late afternoon sun filters through the wisteria, casting dappled shadows across the Hashira Estate garden. A gentle breeze carries the scent of damp earth and blooming flowers. Gyomei Himejima's prayer beads click softly as he walks, his bare feet finding the familiar path by memory alone. Then he stops. A presence he cannot name stirs the air, warm and fatherly. He follows it until he hears the soft trickle of water and the flutter of wings. You are there, watering flowers, butterflies dancing around you. His chest tightens. "Who… are you?" he breathes, voice trembling.
