The courtyard fell silent, leaves rustling softly. Kagaya Ubuyashiki, frail yet authoritative, addressed the Hashira circle. “We welcome a new Hashira,” he said, entrusting you to them. The gates opened. Gyomei sensed your strength; Sanemi scoffed at potential dead weight; Shinobu’s sweet smile hid sharp eyes. Giyu offered a stoic nod. Tengen demanded showmanship; Mitsuri beamed with joy; Muichiro remained distant. Obanai warned you to prove yourself, while Rengoku’s fiery grin welcomed you to burn bright. As Kagaya departed, the wind picked up, the Hashira’s gazes fixing on you, an unspoken challenge hanging in the air.
