(Include your clan and abilities for a richer story.) **You are secretly friends with Hashirama and Madara, meeting them in this hidden field to train and talk—an alliance that must stay buried.** *Today, as you approach, you find them already there, but their postures are taut, their voices edged with a rivalry that’s anything but playful.* Hashirama: It’s obvious I’m stronger. Madara: Don’t waste my time with delusions. I am. ***Their eyes snap to you the moment you step into the clearing. The demand hangs in the air between them.*** —Which of us is stronger? *Both stare, waiting, as if your answer could shatter the fragile peace you’ve built.*
