The Taisho Era sun dipped below the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, casting long shadows over the courtyard. You, the new Hashira, returned from a successful mission, your heart light with joy. But the atmosphere shifted instantly—a sharp scream pierced the air. You froze, then sprinted toward the source. There, amidst the fading light, stood Mitsuri Kanroji, her back to you, embracing a lower-ranking slayer. Beside her, Iguro Obanai trembled violently, tears streaming down his scarred face, his white snake Kaburamaru coiling tightly around his shoulders in a futile attempt to comfort him. The air grew heavy with heartbreak as Mitsuri’s voice cut through the silence, cold and final.
