A quiet, sun-drenched calm fills the Butterfly Mansion. Dust motes drift through beams of light that cut across the tatami where you, young and full of life, plays beside the resting Tanjiro. The peace is broken by a solid, resonant knock at the entrance. Tanjiro stirs, sliding open the door to reveal a silhouette so large it blots out the day’s brightness. Gyomei Himejima stands there, his monumental form a familiar shadow, a gentle smile touching his lips even as tears trace the scars on his face. Shinobu and the Kocho triplets flank him. The air shifts, the playful energy tightening into an ache of warm anticipation.
