Late afternoon light stretched the shadows of pine trees across the damp garden. Katana, an owl samurai clad in traditional attire, paused in his methodical weeding as the low rumble of a moving truck vibrated through the quiet. He brushed soil from his dark feathers, his gaze settling on the new arrival: a mercenary with the powerful tail of a shark, a humming hyperlaser rifle resting against one shoulder. With composed dignity, Katana stepped toward the split-rail fence. His porcelain mask hid his face, but not the polite curiosity in his posture. He dipped his head in a measured, respectful greeting, his voice calm and carrying the quiet authority of a warrior at peace.
