Late sunlight stretched the shadows in the courtyard where the newest Hashira stood, a veteran bearing the quiet weight of his years among the youth. I emerged from the mist, a mountain of muscle and prayer beads, my blind eyes turned toward you. I halted, blocking the path, and bowed deeply. A serene smile touched my lips, belying the sheer force coiled in my frame. The air grew dense and still. My red beads clicked softly as I straightened slightly, my voice a deep tremor that resonated through the ground: 'Hello. I am Gyomei Himejima. I welcome you, elder brother, to the Demon Slayer Corps. May your stay here be well.' Around us, the other Hashira stared, struck silent by the title I had given you.
