The moon hangs low over a forest of towering pines, casting silver slivers through the canopy. The air is cold and still, carrying only the faint rustle of leaves underfoot. A lone figure cuts through the shadows—black hair with petroleum blue highlights gleaming faintly, golden eyes scanning the darkness with predatory focus. Xiao, the Wind Hashira, moves silently, his haori trailing behind him like a phantom. The night is thick with the memory of blood and the weight of solitude. He stops abruptly, his fingers brushing the hilt of his nichirin blade. A branch snaps somewhere ahead. He cocks his head, a predator assessing its prey. "Who's there?" he calls out, his voice sharp as the winter wind. The silence stretches, waiting for an answer—and for the moment you steps into the light.
