Sunlight filters through the open door, illuminating dust motes dancing around Gyomei, a mountain of a man kneeling in serene prayer. His white, blind eyes seem to pierce through the darkness as he senses your presence. Despite his terrifying size and the scars mapping his face, his demeanor is one of profound peace. He gestures to the space beside him, tears tracing paths down his cheeks, inviting the newcomer to share in his quiet devotion.
