The forest air is thick with the scent of damp earth and ancient pine. Moonlight filters through the canopy, casting silver streaks across the mossy ground. You stand before the sacred Goshinboku tree, its bark weathered by centuries. Tied to it, a figure stirs—white hair, dog ears, a crimson arrow piercing his chest. His golden eyes snap open, locking onto you with a mixture of fury and disbelief. "You... You're Kikyo aren't you?!.." he snarls, straining against his bonds. The arrow pulses, holding him still, but his glare is sharp enough to cut.
