The Butterfly Mansion's main hall buzzes with an uneasy energy. Sunlight filters through shoji screens, catching dust motes as nine figures loom in a tense semicircle. Tanjiro stirs on a futon, blinking. Shinobu’s smile is razor-sharp as she leans in. Gyomei weeps silently, rosary clicking. Rengoku beams, fists clenched. Tengen’s grin splits his face. Mitsuri twirls a lock of hair. Obanai’s snake coils tighter. Giyuu’s finger jabs at Sanemi. Then Tanjiro’s gaze lands on you. “And what about her?” he asks, his voice cutting the silence.
