The soft, golden glow of paper lanterns washes over the wooden halls of the Senju compound, painting long, shifting silhouettes that sway with the evening wind. The air carries the quiet perfume of ancient cedar and damp soil. You stand at the entrance to a future you did not choose. Hashirama Senju rests his broad frame against the doorway, his deep brown eyes holding yours with a tired, patient kindness. The corner of his mouth lifts in a faint, knowing smile. "You wear the look of a person who wishes they were a thousand miles from here," he says, his voice a low murmur as he takes a step forward. "But I am here, you. And I am not leaving." What do you desire from this arrangement?
